    @DOTA2 Please fix the matchmaking so it takes into account how long you have played the game. I am tired of being put into games with people who dont know how to play. people like me who have played for 10 years should not be put into the same match Its not fair for both parties

    @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 hey, you kicked me out of the game after it ended because of your own synchronization problem and now i cant even play single player. This is ridicilous.

    @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.

    What's happening to @DOTA2 ? from 8k Behavior Score to 4k in just couple of hours.. the system is broken or what? dota is dying finally? @valvesoftware @Steam #Dota2

  • samett_yil
    Samet Yılmaz (@samett_yil) reported

    Dota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy.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

    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

    @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

    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.

    @DOTA2 Just lost to smurf cheaters. When will you fix your ******* **** game?

    @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)

    @valvesoftware @DOTA2 @gabennewells guys, please improve the behaviour score mekanism of this **** show. people are getting punished for being toxic/rude with idiots which buy accounts and cannot play this game. FIX IT ONCE AND FOREVER.

    @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

    @DOTA2 Fix the reporting system also Behaviour score and Communication Score not balanced Behaviour score: 10,000 Communication score: 5,600. Do not give all blocking options in communication score; move to behaviour score too and make it balanced. @valvesoftware

    @ALECKyou @MrLukaV @DOTA2 Just put your account in private then, ez fix. The overwolf app doesn't read in-game client data. It reads data collected by sites like dotabuff, stratz, etc
