  • Pat_Ahern Pat Ahern (@Pat_Ahern) reported

    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

  • J0shuaw Joshua (@J0shuaw) reported

    @DOTA2 Smurfs in every game and account buying and boosting services flourishing like never before. Match making is broken af. Congrats for doing literally nothing 👏

  • Voyager384 Ameya (@Voyager384) reported

    @DOTA2 Anyone else getting an error message

  • duran_jose06 Jose Ricardo Duran (@duran_jose06) reported

    @DOTA2 THE REAL PROBLEM IS YOUR MATCHMAKING.....!!!!!

  • GiantPotato5588 D (@GiantPotato5588) reported

    @redditdota2 @BeyondTheSummit @DOTA2 I don’t get the love for BTS all their streams constantly have quality and connectivity issues. Their 1080 is 480 regularly

  • bafikk Oleksii Bafadarov (@bafikk) reported

    @TorteDeLini @DOTA2 you cant solve smurfs problem without MMR system change. We need wipes and short seasons with good rewards where smurfs will be pointless.

  • Alexale20345671 Alex alex (@Alexale20345671) reported

    @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.

  • Klypzz klypzz (@Klypzz) reported

    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

  • TrialxHolofan Holo Fan (@TrialxHolofan) reported

    Lima Major is the most disgusting Dota 2 event, ur in 2023 and pc problem still exist loools. @DOTA2, what have u done choosing a non organized production team?. Did Epulze put money in they're pocket first than adding it to the ****.value o the event? #Dota2 #LimaMajor2023

  • YozoraDota VJ (@YozoraDota) reported

    @Creato_LABs @DOTA2 Tell me you don’t know the terms of service of steam without telling me

  • mmoiz17 M.Moiz (@mmoiz17) reported

    @ShazZy29632529 @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

  • mecdood MikeDood (@mecdood) reported

    @DOTA2 Smurfs are cheaters and it's absolutely4 rife. Fix that please.

  • ioDanck Ola Danckwardt (@ioDanck) reported

    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.

  • muttaqienzae zaenal (@muttaqienzae) reported

    @DOTA2 pls fix your game

  • subw00fer37 SuBw00FeR (@subw00fer37) reported

    @JJLiebig @DOTA2 @EPULZEgaming Sorry just saw, first one with OD/Fogged - Tundra v Talon , Still going through watching them atm. day 2 was very similar most not working, few with the game sound over casters voice and maybe 2-3 matches worked fine.

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

  • hellbuster Buster Cakepan (@hellbuster) reported

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

  • bafikk Oleksii Bafadarov (@bafikk) reported

    @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.

  • anskodos 40z nuts (@anskodos) reported

    @midormeepo @DOTA2 I'll forgo all the production issues if $3 mil majors are back

  • TheFuzzyGrundle Thefuzzygrundle (@TheFuzzyGrundle) reported

    @DOTA2 How about fix the exploit. It’s not cheating if the game allowed it. Very noob move

  • JoBoy78_ Joseph (@JoBoy78_) reported

    @DOTA2 But smurfs and account buyers are still welcomed...Either ban them or fix the matchmaking system...

  • oldmanwith6abs Lã Ngọc Hải (@oldmanwith6abs) reported

    @DOTA2 ok now fix tf2 too

  • parragabry Gabe (@parragabry) reported

    @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)

  • PeygamberDevesi Gökberk Tunç (@PeygamberDevesi) reported

    @DOTA2 Smurfs, boosters, acc buyers, game ruiners. Bigger problems.

  • TheFuzzyGrundle Thefuzzygrundle (@TheFuzzyGrundle) reported

    @DOTA2 How about fix the exploit. It’s not cheating if your game allows it. Noob move

  • _pimpleface_ maf.hnamte (@_pimpleface_) reported

    @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

  • AxR_LeroiMerlin Vitality MKleo 🙏🤲 (@AxR_LeroiMerlin) reported

    @RiotPhroxzon WHY HAVE YOU BUFFED YUUMI, WHY ?!! She is already the most broken champ of LOL history, why buff her AGAIN ?! Are yu drunked ? Or you want all players go on @DOTA2 ?

  • SmoothJazzGamer SmoothJazzGamer (@SmoothJazzGamer) reported

    @TheMaelk @TorteDeLini @DOTA2 Weird pros don't have this problem.. probably shadow pooled in the smurf realm

  • AlecNFTs Alec.ETH (@AlecNFTs) reported

    @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.
