  Dota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy.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

  Here's an idea, @valvesoftware , @DOTA2 - In Ranked matches, filter out people with less than 50% the number of games I have. Smurfs problem solved.

  @DOTA2 Hi Dota 2 Team, I have a humble request, please fix packet loss problem with the game. I have been using sdr force relay cluster command but that also is not working anymore. @Steam @valvesoftware Please help to either fix packet loss or enable that command again.

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

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

  Dear Valve Dota 2 Team, @valvesoftware @DOTA2 I am writing to report a recurring issue I experience during Dota 2 matches that negatively affects the gameplay environment. In many games, some players intentionally pause the match and repeatedly type messages such as “ez ez”

  @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

  @DOTA2 How can I contact with support service ?????

  @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.

  @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.

  @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.

  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.

  @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

  @AmmarAlassaf6 @DOTA2 Since 2023 my comms score dropped from 12K to 7K. Muted mic, stopped texting, tried to be nice. After 2 years I’m only at 7420. This system is just broken.

  @DOTA2 @DOTA2 Please fix the bug in Hero Stats Kills, Assists, Death average calculation. The average is calculated wrong for historic data.

  @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)

  @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!
