    @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.

    @DOTA2 where can i report an issue with your game?

    @TorteDeLini @DOTA2 Well this is odd. I wonder what broke it. I keep hoping it's proof they are working on a big overhaul related to UI but it's more likely Ai slop coding errors. I fear the glory days for Valve ended when Gaben moved to NZ. I want to be wrong, desperately wrong.

    @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!

    @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 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.

    Marius Fjeldsø (@exxera) reported

    @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.

    Dota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy.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

    @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

    @DOTA2 I only play turbo and I paid for 1 year dota plus. The reason i bought it was purely for the relics. They have been broken since the start of TI battlepass. Where can I contact customer support? Anyone know? I haven't got a response even though I've tried so many places!

    @AmmarAlassaf6 @DOTA2 Andddddd this **** is still broken like it was idk 7 months ago? But people still tryna act like it works as intended when there is NO WAY someone who got low comm can get their score back up. You can go play muted no chat for 1 month and it would make no difference. Fix it valve
