Reconnect works, if you disconnect from a match you will ONLY have the reconnect option
If you reconnect everything works but the UI is has some display issues. When you reach the next level just remember you can level up a card with F1-F4 or V if you have the card selected via Scroll Wheel.
Unleveled cards may appear invisible. Leveling them up by pressing the keys and then using them once will unhide them
If a match has ended and you press Reconnect, your game will freeze for about 30 seconds while it refreshes back to the play button. Just wait a moment while it does this.
