  @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

  @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.

  @DOTA2 Can you now fix your matchmaking algo? Took us less than a week to figure it and we’re getting almost free mmr all the time. Maybe use some skill/stats based MM instead of just the retarded 40-40-20 approach? Thx.

  @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 ****....

  @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.

  Glitch/bug when confirming match. If one person doesn't confirm and we miss the queue, every queue afterwards won't make it pass confirmation and we have to restart Dota2 and/or Steam. It's been 3 days straight. Please fix @DOTA2 @Steam

  @DOTA2 I only play turbo and I paid for 1 year dota plus. The reason i bought it was purely for the relics. They have been broken since the start of TI battlepass. Where can I contact customer support? Anyone know? I haven't got a response even though I've tried so many places!

  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.

  Dota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy.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

  @MohammadMash99 @DOTA2 Every year they make a new patch months after TI (TI aug -> Patch nov). They made 7.00 this way. It's not easy but it's their job. A lot of ppl would work and help to make the game better (and money isn't a problem for valve)
