I can't believe we've gotten to the point where we're upset with not being given opportunities to spend hundreds of dollars for hats.

Probably not every hat you wanted but some good ones.

I don't know whether anyone actually likes Alpine Stalker for any reason other than it being removed from the store. It's not even that unique considering poo poo like Ogre's Jakiro onesie is in the game.

Just use your mic to tell your pubbies where you're relocating them and assuming they don't have you muted it's not so bad.

Once you get into the decent mmr people mostly know what to do, otherwise yea it's a real gamble. Also acknowledging that a 'decent mmr' doesn't actually exist.

The issue with io in lower skill is that you have to get your carry to go past their normal limits. They're usually playing around an assumed power curve and if they don't use your buffs and healing for some over extension you're just a creep. You have to be the one to call for a dive if you're opponents aren't already being the aggro ones and giving you the chance to be passively useful by responding to their aggression. Getting sick relo saves and drop ins during mid game is great and all, but low skill early game is where you see io suck particularly hard.

Please don’t play io as a new player unless you plan to consistently queue with a person who will play 1 position and you can spend some time working it out.

Also you can do some cool multi stacking with wisps, but you have to remember to do that on time and not fail at it and not get your carry killed by loving off and they have to take the camp before the opp steals it but still.

This is what I'm talking about, the Io tips. Tbh leaving lane to stack, deward, bounty, etc can all get your hc killed if they're a scrub.

Then maybe get higher MMR when you win on a hero you suck at, and less when playing your main ones?

Game 1 he fed 20 kills on bane and saved people from my necro scythe with nightmare. Game 2 he went godlike on 4 zeus. I have no idea how else to fix this.

In typical Valve fashion I don't think the dislike button actually does anything. You can dislike someone after a game and then get them not only in the same game but as your teammate in the next 2 games.

Is there still a way to avoid a player through dotaplus, or did the like/dislike completely replace it? I've been liking more players than I've been disliking so I haven't seen any ruffians return.

Best way to avoid shitheads in a game is to wait like ten minutes to queue after playing a game with them.

Dislike is not supposed to guarantee you don’t get them, it just weights future matches against them being on your team a bit. It mostly seems to do its job unless I’m playing us west where there aren’t many people

Haven't played in a bit. There used to be a account based list of other accounts you never wanted to play with again.. Was limited to like ten entries. Is that a thing still?

You can avoid people you’ve played with but you gotta be paying for plus.

I think they're one and the same so when you change your dota name your steam name changes too

Valve games generally haven't allowed a distinction between your in-game name and Steam name for years because people are too prone to doing unsavory things with it. I also imagine it's just easier for them to implement things that way.
