This has happened to me too 100% of the time. And it sucks because when i win I want them to know i won you know but if my gamertag isn’t showing then they don’t know it was me.

Hey, can you check again after yesterday's patch. I know the fix for this was in the works for a while now, and I'm fairly sure it was squeezed into the patch, but it wasn't in the notes.
