    @IceFrog @DOTA2 Should if possible allow in custom lobbies let admin save games in pause. That way if there is issues that call for remake you can load up the saved pause file and resume. Would save a lot of time in delays due to player or server side bugs/problems.

    Dear @Dota2, my account was recently restricted due to a hacker using forbidden scripts. As a long-time player and fan who's spent thousands on the game, I'm hoping for your help to resolve this issue. Please assist me in removing the restriction so I can continue playing. #Dota2

    @uNoNeedToKnowMi @teamsecret @DOTA2 They banned those account with a”trap” to be sure of what they were doing, and fixed and patched the problem. They can still play dota? Yes. With the same account? No. Will they be able to cheat again? No. (Or not anytime soon, dota client is pretty safe though)

    @DOTA2 hey, there is a glitch sometimes with Invokers right click attacks. Some matches they are way slower and don’t reach the opponent for what seems twice as long as it should

    @TorteDeLini @DOTA2 you cant solve smurfs problem without MMR system change. We need vipes and short seasons with good rewards where smurfs will be pointless.

    @wykrhm The games needs to be fixed every time I boot up @DOTA2 and q up for the first match of the day and accept it doesn’t connect & puts me on 2 min cooldown EVERYTIME then it works fine no issues. Never had this problem until few weeks ago.

    @DOTA2 Fix the crazy annoying matchmaking. Don’t let trolls ruin other people’s game. You’re mixing people who don’t know how to play to only 1 or 2 person who knows the game. Which is fcked up. So many people stuck in their rank and can’t go up. BoOo!

  • varyani_brah
    KaranV (@varyani_brah) reported

    @valvesoftware @DOTA2 so 7 games, you team me up with absolute noobs who can't play and put us against smurfs. Your matchmaking is broken beyond measure. You should fix it before players stop playing Dota 2 like I did. It's disappointing. I have deleted the game @Steam

    Dota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy. Bring the tournament draft system to ranked games too, it actually makes the game feel more tactical. Pls fix it @valvesoftware @DOTA2
