None, i prefer the old animation victory screen animation:

I never asked for a shorter loading screen and less the one from Xbox; I liked the one we had in PC.

And if the goal was to shorten the loading time in Ranked matches so I could surrender or win quickly and move on to the next game, I could easily enable the option to exit the match 3 seconds after it ends by pressing “ESC” and selecting “Exit after winning” or “Exit after losing.”

### _Solution:_

If the aim is to please everyone, they could add an option in the Game Settings to choose between the quick win screen and the traditional, older one, which I preferred.

I think they could better optimize the code for the OG one, add that Escape option and thats it!
