When I try to join a friend's game via Steam, it says “You have been banned from the current session”

Question

This only started happening after the recent patch (7.06, came out about 10 minutes ago).

He of course hasn't banned me, but we can't join each others' games. How can we fix this?

Answer

This will be fixed in a hotfix tomorrow.

• Fixed Private Match joining bug. Temporary workaround for 7.06: If you are experiencing issues joining a friends match or friend joining yours, toggle the Show/Hide Match button in the pause menu
