    "The account booster/seller will probably spend some of the money he made from the sale on the in game shop for his own main/alt account(s). The buyer, who was sad enough to pay money for a fictional mmr number in the first place, will obviously spend a lot of money to deck out his new high MMR account with all the new rares and stuff.

    So it is in Valve's best interest to make the gaming experience of both the wintraders and the account buyers as smooth as possible, since they bring in a lot of cash. This of course means making dodging harder for legitimate players who might not spent as much money on the game."

        what about the mmr boosters? if someone on one team goes 25-0, you check his dotabuff, and it's full of green, then you can bet it's likely some account booster. obviously i'm going to want to dodge that person. with this feature it's not as convenient anymore

        reverse is true for account buyers

          actually i've dodged maybe 2 times since ranked came out, i just stop playing for 10 min if i get retards on my team lol so it doesn't affect me

            I dislike the change myself, as I used to dodge a lot before, but now the majority of the guys I've muted I never get matched with cause I've ran out of their mmr range (thank you volvo for giving me wins)

            Also sometimes my ping can be bad, so I check ping while other people load and I would obviously dodge if its bad/packetloss.

              I am sorry but after searching for 5 minutes i would like to just play a game instead of having to wait another 5 because someone didnt want to play

                Dorkly, would you like to play with a guy that is 3xtimes better than anyone on your team? I would not :)
                And i don't know why, my queues are mostly 5+ minutes.
                And about dodging, i don't know how the hell it works, i dodged once and had to wait 30 minutes, and since then im afraid to dodge games...

                Fay

                  They should enable the all bot game if ranked is going to wait for 1 hour if i dodge

                  A guy like me who play in early morning might meet some pinoys who queue in australia server with their dumb fuck internet and brain

                    valve made 40 million from the international, how much did they make from abusers decking out their accounts, 10k? dumb thread

                            before they make such retarded thing they shoud consider banning 90% of players so there will be no more need to dodge any game.
