Furqan Aziz (@MayorOfUtopia) reported@valvesoftware @DOTA2 please fix your servers. If you cannot, take them offline. Makes no sense to punish players with abandons and low priority when the fault is on your side.

azverin7 (@azverin7) reportedDear @Dota2, my account was recently restricted due to a hacker using forbidden scripts. As a long-time player and fan who's spent thousands on the game, I'm hoping for your help to resolve this issue. Please assist me in removing the restriction so I can continue playing. #Dota2

Alec.ETH (@AlecNFTs) reported@DOTA2 Five ranked games in a row where I’m playing on US servers but everyone on my team is from Peru/Ecuador. When will you fix this because losing games because you can’t coordinate is more frustrating because the majority of players deal with this issue and not cheating.

Samet Yılmaz (@samett_yil) reportedDota 2 ranked draft is messy, outdated, and completely misses the strategy.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

Uldis/Evil Arts (@EvilArtsLV) reported@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.

Alex alex (@Alexale20345671) reported@DOTA2 Can you now fix your matchmaking algo? Took us less than a week to figure it and we’re getting almost free mmr all the time. Maybe use some skill/stats based MM instead of just the retarded 40-40-20 approach? Thx.

jeffryhoof34 (@jeffryhoof60084) reportedDear 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.
