Battlegrounds Reliability Makes It Unplayable

I wanted to provide feedback that in roughly 50% of battleground matchups, I have some sort of connection or crashing issue, handing me a loss, this includes:
1) Not being able to select a champ during draft and seeing the loading symbol, resulting in ridiculous matchups
2) Game crashing mid fight (usually when attacker or defender throw a special with intense graphics)
3) Finishing a fight and then seeing a black screen with a timer, resulting in either a loss or a tie.
4) I select something before the timer runs out and then kabam just decides I didnt press it in time and selects someone at random.
For reference, I've been in the top 1000 multiple times and I really want to enjoy playing BG, but I just can't given its current performance.
As it stands, I will stop trying to make it into the top 1000.

Throws me back in the fight as if nothing happened, with only 10 seconds left… What the hell is that about!?
So, of course I lose that round. Which is stupid because, I had won for sure! The other guy finished slower than my original victory and with less health. But, instead I get a loss and forced into a third round.
#3 was the cause of this loss. Happened multiple times too, kabam don't seem to be bothered that we are spending energy on this mode
Then to add insult to injury, I lost the next few and gave up. I don't know if I was being punished or was so mad I just played bad.
In my most recent battlegrounds matchup, I won the first two rounds by knocking out my opponent. After the second round, instead of showing the victory screen, I was taken to the calculating match results. It showed a win but did not give me the additional medallion.
Then when I hit return to lobby, I was taken back into the second fight. It immediately timed out.
Then I was shown the standard game disconnected modal. When I clicked reconnect button, I was taken directly back into the second fights again (third time). Again it timed out immediately.
Then I was taken to match results & shown as a loss. The one medallion I had was then taken.
So instead of advancing to bronze II because of my win, I’ve been stripped of my progress with a false loss. Also, then entire match was not counted against the 3 match objective.
Worst battlegrounds experience ever.
