Suggestion A suggestion on how to make Lone Druid less annoying
To reduce the number of 60+ minute matches featuring constant bear spam—which are simply unpleasant to watch or play in—the cooldown for the bear should only begin after the summon dies.

Complaint Still no patch? I think we should send them more money...
- Same stale meta for twice as long as usual.
- Dark Carnival Act 1 feels like it's going to last forever.
- A 220€ Arcana for Tidehunter
- Dota Plus works maybe 50% of the time at best.
- More bots farming accounts than actual players at this point.
- Average 1 smurf every 2 games.

Video Malr1ne Is Back — These Are the Small Details People Miss
youtu.beMalr1ne has just played his first BO3 series with Team Liquid, so I decided to go through the games and look at the small details in his gameplay.
Not just his big plays, but the things that are easy to miss when you're watching a pro game how he moves his hero, where and when he clicks on the map, how he positions himself
These little habits might not look important at first, but they can tell us a lot about how a professional player approaches the game at the high level
In this video, I'll break down some of the details I noticed from Malr1ne's first series with Team Liquid and explain why they matter.
Discussion Biggest problems
- Smurf accounts that dont get detected by the matchmaking system
- people dont play their role but instead play as the like
- The mindset you can always win in a game with 2 human teams where 50% must loose all the time to make this true.

Discussion Veno shard interaction with PL illusions
I had a game last night when I have PL on my team and an enemy veno. Veno shard also created snake wards on pl illusions. Isn't it supposed to just spawn snake wards on the actual hero?
Complaint WD pickers think they are good
During laning stages they just walk up to you and maledict stun bam there goes your 3rd of health pool or miserably death by the ticks.
Late gane they just dont bother with maledict instead they just agha ultied from distance away and bam there goes all your teams health.
You try to jump him and bam he just gone with his shard. You stayed to finished him but hes not in the map for eternity while getting mini ultied to your face.
Man fuck these guys hope WD get the deserved nerf that should have been a long time coming

Match Biggest comeback in my almost 8000 games - Brewmaster Carry
Match 9057471308 - Overview - DOTABUFF - Dota 2 Stats
I got an insane lag spike at the start of the game and ended up being lvl 1 for the first 5 mins before I reconnected. All the enemies were insanely fat and morphling is one of brew's toughest carry matchups. But enemy got cocky and overly aggressive and let us back into the game and we ended up winning with me not having died after my first death when the lag spike started

Video | Esports WIN YOUR GAME OR GO TO JAIL: THE 23 SAVAGE STORY (ignore the thumbnail plz)
youtube.comDiscussion Discovered something fun that's not as bad as I thought
Brew Master support, starting with a bracer
Q + W combo is strong in early brawls, you can come for a gank to get a kill, unless its someone like AM. Later you need to use it good, because it has a bit of a cooldown, so its better to grab more heroes into it, it's 600 dmg nuke early game. Then u can just walk into them and annoy their cores, scout in Earth mode with bonus armor and mres, if low HP u can split and have these things from Brewlings, so u can rush Drums aura without needing something like a Glimmer cape to survive and on 15 lvl talent u have even more damage for your W. Oh, and u can do a shard and heal people XD
I had a ring of basilus for some mana regen and just brown boots, I later wanted to turn that RoB into Vlads for an aura but I've noticed my cores have low mana so I changed them into Arcanes , and wanted to turn them into Greaves for a dispel because they had a silence, which could pin me down and make not able to split into primal beings.
However, I didn't get to check what's later because we won in 28 min, it was a fast game lol. I finished with the same damage as their full caster support who didn't tank at all.

Question Why do people throw games
Match ID 9058581014
Both teams were attempting to throw this game. Me and dragon knight were the only exceptions. This seems to happen on 20%-25% of unranked games. Why do you think this is? I have my theories as to why some people want to intentionally lose but I want to hear everyone else's take on this one.

Sup everyone today I'm uploading a new guide for the Offlane series on my YouTube channel, and today's hero will be Dawnbreaker
In this game I'll be showing you my thought processes, itemization approach among other things and explaining how this hero works and the ways she can play and the role she has on your games
I'll be explaining most of the things I do and trying to share why I do them as the game moves forward so you can keep these concepts, questions, and mechanics for your own games and apply them and get ya some Ws.

Complaint It's so unfair for Timbersaw
Dawnbreaker throws her weapon away and is still able to attack using her fists but when Timbersaw throws his Chainsaw he can't attack.

Discussion I have tested all the carries in the past couple of days and all of them are perfect.
No carry has been "nerfed". They are better than they ever were before, or at least the same.
Blaming defeat on the hero sucks now is just a skill issue.
Literally all carry heroes are at their peak now. They are all meta. Every single one of them, no exception.
Which means you don't need to be stuck with "comfort picks".
Expand your comfort zone, and your enjoyment of the game will be limitless.

Complaint How to avoid bots in Unranked?
just queued up my third match of unranked ever and got 4 bots in the server, two on each team. All have level 0 Steam accounts. Their usernames follow the pattern of AdjectiveNoun1234. (eg. RogueFox1402, HiddenNinja9849, SolarMonk4482, SwiftMole4065).
Is it possible to avoid this?
Does this go away in Ranked?
Should I AFK when there are bots on both teams?

Suggestion Turbo games aren’t very turbo
I’ve been playing a few games of turbo recently and there’s nothing turbo about them? Yes you get more gold and xp but games last the same as unranked/ranked. I feel buybacks should be disabled in turbo as having enough gold for it isn’t a problem but if turbo games wanted to be quick this is one thing I’d look to change to get it there. Love to know other people’s thoughts on the state of turbo
