  @MohammadMash99 @DOTA2 I would calm down if the game would actually work at all after the patch. Updated everything that is possible to update, reinstalled the entire game, yet still I cant even "Demo" a hero without the game crashing to desktop without as much as an error message.

  @DOTA2 @valvesoftware @DOTA2 2 days now, the game has been litterally unplayable, trying to demo a hero, a bot match, a regular match, spectate, the game closes without any error msg. I have tried EVERYTHING. Fix it, or at least aknowledge that you are aware of it.

  @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.

  @ricardoestrel95 @DOTA2 That's the problem, they don't like money apparently. TI went from raising over a hundred million to a million prize pool.

  @crovvnthug @midormeepo @DOTA2 Yep, you've pretty much summed up the problem. Valve are basically killing dota esports

  @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)

  @IceFrog @DOTA2 There should be a server auto save feature for DPC games. 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 You guys are big losers for ruining the game for the players. I can’t believe how you cannot solve Smurfs issue. There’s a Smurf in every game. Your developer team is so pathetic and incompetent to be honest. It’s very simple to solve it, you can add another filter in the

  @valvesoftware @DOTA2 please fix your servers. If you cannot, take them offline. Makes no sense to punish players with abandons and low priority when the fault is on your side.

  @TorteDeLini @DOTA2 Well this is odd. I wonder what broke it. I keep hoping it's proof they are working on a big overhaul related to UI but it's more likely Ai slop coding errors. I fear the glory days for Valve ended when Gaben moved to NZ. I want to be wrong, desperately wrong.

  @DOTA2 Five ranked games in a row where I’m playing on US servers but everyone on my team is from Peru/Ecuador. When will you fix this because losing games because you can’t coordinate is more frustrating because the majority of players deal with this issue and not cheating.

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

  Rune Toftlund (@Rutof) reported 44 minutes ago

  @dota2 why can players stand afk for 5-10mins at T2 tower and not get removed from the game? Fix this please. Zero movement for 2+mins should just be instant remove.

  @DOTA2 I just love still playing Herald rank vs a random 34-1-4 Windranger/Tinker/Arc/OD in almost every game. Face it, your game is broken... so broken.
