    @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!

    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”

    @Steam @DOTA2 you guys should make the rules about Smurfing in DotA much more strickt. in 10 Games you get like 8 Smurfs everytime a ******* Event is on. If you want the player base to play the event, than fix the ****. But i guess you guys dont give a ****....

    @AmmarAlassaf6 @DOTA2 Andddddd this **** is still broken like it was idk 7 months ago? But people still tryna act like it works as intended when there is NO WAY someone who got low comm can get their score back up. You can go play muted no chat for 1 month and it would make no difference. Fix it valve

    Here's an idea, @valvesoftware , @DOTA2 - In Ranked matches, filter out people with less than 50% the number of games I have. Smurfs problem solved.

    @DOTA2 I have a problem. Every time I play Dota. 1st match is a lagfest. Insane lagging. Ping 200+. The next match ping levels are normal 20-30ping. I tried to restart, reset the router, restart the game, and PC restarting, verify game files. I'm still lagging in 1st game.

    @radianceheat @AmmarAlassaf6 @DOTA2 The issue is that everyone has unlimited reports, so if you step even a hair out of line in their eyes, reported. And the game doesn’t care. You just instantly lose 150 com score or what ever. Cause someone didn’t like the cut of your jib. But yeah, be nicer, that works.

  • Rutof
    Rune Toftlund (@Rutof) reported

    @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.

    @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.
