  @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.

  @DOTA2 Please fix the matchmaking so it takes into account how long you have played the game. I am tired of being put into games with people who dont know how to play. people like me who have played for 10 years should not be put into the same match Its not fair for both parties

  @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!

  @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.

  @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.

  @DOTA2 the most important change in UI that Dota needs is to remove passives from Hotkey Setup. That would fix 90% of the Hotkey issues. Passives should be moved to the right and should not require an assigned hotkey.

  @DOTA2 Fix your ******* game and pay attention to what community says or delete Dota from Steam. It could be a the ggoat but unfortunately valve doesn’t give a **** about it. Yeah, let’s make overwatch 3 and name it deadlock. Pathetic - Queen Empire

  @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)

  Immortal matchmaking is a very nice, a feature that was missed in high mmr dota for a long time. But can you step up your game Valve and fix the dotaplus tier levels on heroes and avoid the list which is useless right now? @valvesoftware @DOTA2

  Dear Valve Dota 2 Team, @valvesoftware @DOTA2 I am writing to report a recurring issue I experience during Dota 2 matches that negatively affects the gameplay environment. In many games, some players intentionally pause the match and repeatedly type messages such as “ez ez”

  When will @DOTA2 / @Steam let you keep voice line and stickers etc that you either paid for or grind for. It use to be that way before...what change? I want to keep some of my old voice line not disregard them because there's new 1s to pay for. Please fix

  @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
