    @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.

    @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 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.

    @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.

    Dota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy.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

    @DOTA2 BAN SA obviously hints are given for their benefit. This was an issue from other tournament before and they addressed it.

    @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

    Marius Fjeldsø (@exxera) reported

    @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.

    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

    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 Big problem with smurf accounts, it's impossible to have a decent game, after 12 years of playing. It seems to me a real garbage that accounts with 500 games are allowed to play against me.

    Timo Metsänoja (@metsanoja) reported

    @redditdota2 @DOTA2 Lina is the hero to ban. That passive on the lane is just too strong. She slaves the wave for 200 attack speed and it is over... Just totally broken on the lane. Thank god she doesn't do any magic damage on top of that.
