    @DOTA2 You guys are big losers for ruining the game for the players. I can’t believe how you cannot solve Smurfs issue. There’s a Smurf in every game. Your developer team is so pathetic and incompetent to be honest. It’s very simple to solve it, you can add another filter in the

    @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.

    @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 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

    @IceFrog @DOTA2 Should if possible allow in custom lobbies let admin save games in pause. That way if there is issues that call for remake you can load up the saved pause file and resume. Would save a lot of time in delays due to player or server side bugs/problems.

    @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

    @IceFrog @DOTA2 There should be a server auto save feature for DPC games. That way if there is issues that call for remake you can load up the saved pause file and resume. Would save a lot of time in delays due to player or server side bugs/problems.
