Played a bunch of games in which my teammates didn’t say a single word even when asked and were constantly feeding and just afk farming.

Played a game where two party members queued together. One had to leave so he activated shared control over his hero and he didnt get an abandon. Even I was able to control him, but since he was basically afk, all the farm that he had couldnt be converted to items. The friend of the afk guy started talking shit and couldnt understand why it was wrong.

We obviously lost that game and another teammate wouldnt understand either of why that would make me upset as well. Getting to the point of saying he’d report me because I lost my lane against puck (I was lc) And other typical trashtalk about me being bad and bla bla bla.

Ive noticed this increase of weird games in which you feel you’re the only one talking and trying to get shit done. I dont mean to say that I’m better than all my teammates in all my games because I’m not, but it does feel like I’m playing alone and with no one to talk to.

Low divine bracket and 11350 behavior and communication score.

Edit: us east is the region I play in. But I mostly get matched with spanish speakers.

    If you maintain a low death count, the reports are discarded in 80-90% of cases. I could provide 10 instances where this has occurred, and not once did I receive feedback for the griefers. However, when you try to play your best but end up with 10+ deaths and get reported, the automated report system counts it as griefing, affecting your behavior.

    i started playing dota again 3 days ago. Played 6 games till now. I removed keys assigned to every communication option. Chatwheels, voicelines, voice chat, and even the team chat and All chat. I basically have no way to use these in a game.

    I also don’t use any ping all game, i used it like 3 times till now only. No ping at all, no pinging my items or team or enemy items. No pinging ground, no nothing. Just no pings at all.

    We have been complaining for the past month of the BS score being broken and every time we make a post here on reddit, valve guardians will downvote and trash talk us until the post is gone.

    What you are experiencing is normal, everyone is scared to lose Behavior score. Once you lose behavior score, it is hell to get it back. I won’t risk losing behavior score to communicate something to my team even if it was important. To be fair, people rarely communicate well or respond to comms. So, it won’t matter really, it will only make the game feel more like singleplayer.

    Many people won’t like this, but it is the reality. Accept it!

      Bro I still talk normally and I’m at 11500-12000 behavior score constantly. Just don’t be stupid or a bigot and you’re going to be fine. Either people are way too paranoid or they know they’re really fucking toxic and have no emotional regulation skills that they have to gag themselves.

    I don’t have griefers in my games regularly but sometimes, I get one or two. In my opinion, the problem is that these players don’t get punished

    Match ID - 7441555771

    The Earth Spirit kicked me (Underlord) into the enemy team, which got me killed, while we were just about to defend our highground at the later stages of the game.

    This was blatant griefing and I wonder how he was punished, if he was punished at all. He’s not played a Single Draft game since then so maybe he got another form of punishment. What’s suspicious is that when I wanted to download the match replay, I could not, if I can’t watch the replay, maybe the game does not show up in Overwatch report system :/

    I think there aren’t enough people who watch Overwatch replays/reports and millions of games are played each day so punishment gets really delayed (?)

    Maybe to encourage more people to do Overwatch reviews, make it a mini tournament by adding stats such as This player has successfully given 50 verdicts (?)

    Another way is to maybe give some shards for each review done? These proposed solutions will surely come with their own problems but I still think they should be considered and refined
