  • jokbitcoin Jok Coin (@jokbitcoin) reported

    @DOTA2 Big problem with smurf accounts, it's impossible to have a decent game, after 12 years of playing. It seems to me a real garbage that accounts with 500 games are allowed to play against me.

    @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

  • metsanoja Timo Metsänoja (@metsanoja) reported

    @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.

  • hellbuster Buster Cakepan (@hellbuster) reported

    @DOTA2 Fix Smurf cheaters in all brackets NOW. Dota only on Steam accounts with over $100 value. 3-8 cheaters every freaking game. Dota is absolute **** now, and players are leaving in the hundreds of thousands because you refuse to make your game playable 😢

  • PeygamberDevesi Gökberk Tunç (@PeygamberDevesi) reported

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

    @RiotSupport Not working yet. @DOTA2 do you have a bad client as well? Or I can be happy playing with no errors?

  • mabujold Marc-Andre Bujold (@mabujold) reported

    @TorteDeLini @DOTA2 I would not say the complete lack of care from Valve is a 'minor' issue. The game needs more regular patches and a better seasonal system to keep people interested
