  @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 Smurf cheaters in all brackets NOW. Dota only on Steam accounts with over $100 value. 3-8 cheaters every freaking game. Dota is absolute **** now, and players are leaving in the hundreds of thousands because you refuse to make your game playable 😢

  @AmmarAlassaf6 @DOTA2 Since 2023 my comms score dropped from 12K to 7K. Muted mic, stopped texting, tried to be nice. After 2 years I’m only at 7420. This system is just broken.

  Dota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy. Take a note from "LoL" draft. Pls fix it @valvesoftware @DOTA2

  Ernesto (@elafaith91) reported 21 minutes ago

  @DOTA2 For a while now, Ive noticed that when I reach Level 10, my abilities get locked until I use my skill point. If this happens during a team fight, its really inconvenient. Please fix this

  Hey @valvesoftware, please give @WePlay_Esports every @DOTA2 major & TI moving forward. These scuffed productions are embarrassing. So many tech issues and these fans are in a blimp hanger sitting on scaffolding. Do better. #LimaMajor

  @DOTA2 Today I finally uninstalled this ******* cancer of a game. 7000+ hours. **** YOU VALVE and your cesspool of cheating, broken ******* piece of **** game! You will NEVER be able to fix it.

  Hey @dota2 and @valve. Your report system is broken. People in pre-made party got me in SD/LP for 3 games after they didn't respect their picked roles in ranked while I did. They were 3, they reported me while they didn't respect the game, and I'm the one being low prio. **** you

  @TorteDeLini @DOTA2 She has mana issues sustaining the Q I think. I’m gonna guess if you want to build her for max efficiency you basically just build her like Lina and go passive first with falcon blade maelstrom into other stuff but I also haven’t been able to test everything

  The production quality and viewing experience really gets worse and worse every @DOTA2 Major. The talent is amazing as always, but the tech issues and sets are not worthy of a Major.

  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”

  @redditdota2 @DOTA2 Never touch ranked. Only turbo for fun, if any of my team or enemy grieving in turbo, it's their problem, then.

  Top Zozzle 🇷🇺 (@Slateproc) reported 48 minutes ago

  @ribhurix @DOTA2 Play real dota instead of turbo and there's no problems

  @Caipyyy @DOTA2 My account also got a permanent ban and support did nothing to help , not until I reached out to @SUPER_UNBAN on Instagram who helped me recover back my account . I confidently recommend his service

  @SeifertLinyker @firebornG6 @DOTA2 Thanks for the heads-up. I had no idea it was a problem for this long. I would've never done this had I known. Appreciate it a lot

  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
