    @DOTA2 hey, there is a glitch sometimes with Invokers right click attacks. Some matches they are way slower and don’t reach the opponent for what seems twice as long as it should

    @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)

    @DOTA2 Fix the crazy annoying matchmaking. Don’t let trolls ruin other people’s game. You’re mixing people who don’t know how to play to only 1 or 2 person who knows the game. Which is fcked up. So many people stuck in their rank and can’t go up. BoOo!

    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

  • SlaweE_TV
    SlaweEDotA (@SlaweE_TV) reported

    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

    @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.
