Pretty much the title. I have been playing dota for 10 years, and NEVER, not a single time, have I ever received ‘Low priority’. Well it finally happened last night.
I am 5.3k MMR right now. 12k Behavior, and coms. I role queued 4 games last night, and got Mid every time. I play mid some-what regularly, so not a problem. In my four games, I pick completely normal (like half meta) heroes -Puck, clink, qop, zeus.
In all 4 games, my sidelanes were roasted hard. Basically each game the score was 5-20 around 15 mins, 8-30 at 25 mins.
I am NOT bragging, or saying im good. But I was the only positive KDA in almost all of the games (which I think is common because of mid level advantage). I also NEVER ‘all chat’. But I do ping objectives, missing heroes, ganks, etc. I basically don’t chat outside anything relevant in the game.
We lost all 4 games, and ofc got the “ez mid” basically every time my lanes got destroyed. I care less about toxic people, I just mute, play my game, and live my life.
I play a lot of mid, and people always complain. But somehow now its became 100% mid’s fault for the laning stage in both safelane, and offlane.
After searching reddit, I am seeing a lot of posts lately about the broken behaviour score system. It is actually broken?
I don’t think you should EVER be able to send someone to LP for being “bad”. Even if your core is 0-22, and trying his hardest to win the game, that’s part of dota.
I used to read about old techies players being reported non-stop, and I honestly didn’t believe it. Now I do. I am going to take a small break until something is figured out, as I am still kind of bewildered something like that can happen.
i agree the behaviour system generated a giant kindergarden. every L match is basically a polit race to find one guy to blame on to cover up how bad themselfs have griefed the game. it has increased level of toxicity rather than tackle it
IMO reports should be balanced by “performance” metrics (did you try your best to give your team a shot*) and/or limited again, maybe w/ a chance to gain more by playing well and positive feedback. Also party Q’s should be factored in - nothing better than receving 3 reports from a 3 stack that went combined 3-35.
for example i stopped playing Pos1 bc im just so sick and tired of pos5 players losing lane bc they are either afk or greedy rushing big items instead regen, griefing carry timing, not buying wards/sentries, jungeling and taking save farm and then blame it on you bc you are too sad to play dota. If you do the right thing and farm away on enemie side of the map guaranteed report and grief supp will convince some dumbo on your team (usually the 0-12 offlaner) that its your fault.
ps: 11k behaviour score 9.5k communication score
