Hmm, I kinda liked the giant VS symbols! Made everything seem more dramatic! I agree the yellow text on the quick game button needed to go, but I'm not so sure that the entire button had to go too.
Existing VSs are putted on ready-made font. so they are just information. If they are ornament, they need design. Circle button design line is far from others.

Doesn't really matter to me whether the VS are text font or art, I just liked them being big. You might be right about the circular button though, as there are no other circular buttons in the game, however there might be more to come as most of the menus are long overdue a design overhaul. Especially the world map, although I seem to remember that they've had a new map in the pipe-works for a while now.
I don't deny huge character but just putting on ready-made in huge size.
I know preview of some new windows. You can find circle element in guild window preview. It is fine. Have a distance but not too far. On the other hand, It is not problem about individual shape but whole lay out in lobby window. It is difficult to use circle element for quick match systematically in this window concept.
btw guild window preview break consistency if it is normal window. So there are no need to use circle element judging from publication...
I don't think there needs to be 'vs' in between everything. It's unnecessary information and just clutters the interface imo.
I also get the feeling that the 'quick game' button should be renamed to 'start' or 'fight!'
The words 'quick game' seem like they refer to a game type, which in this interface, is selected on the left.
I'm just nitpicking ofc but i like attention to detail

Yeah, I think purpose built VS symbols might be cool. At the end of the day though it's down to what Kyle wants to do. If enough people feel the same way he'll probably implement changes like the ones you suggested, but overall I feel the new lobby design is a great improvement over what we had before, which while serviceable, was as bland as dishwater.
Looking good.
But they should definitely get rid of the phrase "Quick Game." A lot of games are not very quick.
Maybe the button should be renamed/titled : Not-so-quick-game-but-maybe-opponent-will-rage-quit Game. Can we fit that into one button title? I dunno...
