You guys were wrong about reddit. Say what you want about them, they just single handedly saved this game.

>Literally the best thing to happen to dota in ages >And the third world subhumans that inhabit /d2g/ are acting as if the game is finally dead >When their autistic selves don't even play the fucking game to begin with You retards are fucking retarded. Dota 2 is notorious for having an extremely toxic community. One that's so bad it literally drives away new players. This is literally the best thing to happen to Dota 2.
I hope you all start sucking Reddit's dick because it was their constant bitching that finally made Valve do something about it. Reddit is the saviour of Dota 2.

Just a matter of time before someone hacks where they store the phone numbers. You know those crazy guys who threaten to kill you if you don't give them mid? Now they might actually be able to.

Guys, what's going to stop third world shitters from just entering their phone number? Surely valve isn't going to filter by country or area code.
Aiden Davis
hoards of 14yr old peruvian monkeys without phones are left with unranked as their only option
the problem isnt fixed, the toxic players just shift elsewhere

If you've been playing unranked only, then it just reverts to how it was before ranked even existed.

I mean that's a small possibility but to be quite honest, 500,000 people is still a fuck load of people.
Luke Hill
Which is terrible,
Valve should promote team play over solo play.
It just be like in CS:GO. One rank for everything.

It's not that they don't have phones, it's that they'll need to spend EVEN MORE money to play a free game on top of their overpriced net cafe hours.
Thirdies also usually have multiple accounts so they can switch accounts instead of playing LP.

Shitty 2 and 3 stacks barely qualifies as "team play". It's certainly less important than how it skews the skill distributions of games they're in.
Valve is correct in having 2 competitive dota enivroments. One to measure the skill of a solo dota player (ranked) and one to measure the skill of a dota team (battlecups).
Austin Garcia

Was 6.78 the most exciting patch for pro doto of all time?

The overwhelming majority of South American players are little kids, though. The tiny remainder are the few thirdies that can actually play the game worth a shit despite the ping. A dollar per hour is already a lot of money to them.
