    @DOTA2 Do you guys even balance the game anymore? Wynter 5 second hold wtf? same with shadow shaman? Seriously play the game and realize how you've broken it, how stuns are nerfed on ranged units, due to lower skullbash / abys hit % chance.

  • yuuki_hime7 Shiro (@yuuki_hime7) reported

    @wykrhm @DOTA2 The dota 2 servers in India are having issues, I cannot reconnect to my game and my friends can not find match either. Please resolve this issue ASAP.

  • Anmolgrvr Anmol Grover (@Anmolgrvr) reported

    @DOTA2 fix the option where a teammate cannot abuse his skill on teammates. I got a toxic rubick in my game and threw the whole goddamn game. So done with dota and its toxicity

  • GalleyArtist Galley 🚢 (@GalleyArtist) reported

    @DOTA2 was it good to ruin someone's behaviour score by submitting an update during your players game. This got me a real bad lag even I have a good net. So thank you for forcing me to abandon the game. Rejoined like 5 times and now waiting for your asses to ban me.

  • ron_of_kochi Ron of Kochi (@ron_of_kochi) reported

    @moregamespls Been playing just @Dota2 these past 10 days. I only play this. The dopamine fix of a good "gg wp" game on DotA 2 cannot be surpassed.

  • ZWMahone Bee (@ZWMahone) reported

    @DOTA2 VERY SAD TO SEE SEPTER TA SO BROKEN

  • nzsonleo Ari (@nzsonleo) reported

    @DOTA2 @valvesoftware At this point, Escape from tarkov runs better than Nemestice mode. $10 billion dollar company and you can't make a crash free lag free game mode.

  • rayyanqaryouti9 Rayyan🐝🦧 (@rayyanqaryouti9) reported

    @DOTA2 Getting huge arenas is a disadvantage tbh Remember the last few majors and Tis where everyone was spamming riki crowd in the chat? I remember odpixel suggested some stuff to fix that issue like bringing back the ti3 stage format where players are infront of the crowd

  • Twitt3rsh1t Twit (@Twitt3rsh1t) reported

  • darshan_waghela darshan waghela (@darshan_waghela) reported

    Why does 60-100 mb updates take more than an hour to update? I am having this issue for the past week or so. And its irritating to wait an hour when i only play like 2 hours a day. Please look into it. @Steam_Support @DOTA2 @valvesoftware
