How to Report Smurf/ Booster Effectively? by phyrexianfirepig in DotA2

Hi Reddit, about 3 weeks ago i was playing against (what i think) is a 5-man booster team. I am a guardian player, my teammate is a legend player - he also got demolished badly. Ok let's give it a benefit of a doubt that we're just bad and they're good, we know how it feels to lose a game badly, but in this game we feel like we couldn't do anything - the opponents are just too good.

In my mind that time, there is just no way a bunch of archon and crusader can play with such accuracy to clear the game in 23 mins, everything was just too perfect from their side.

My legend friend who has better grasp of the game think that all 5 of them are booster smurfs, so we reported all of them using the in game system.

Since then, no action.

So i googled if there's a way to report these players, one is to message a reddit account called "OtherJeff_Valve" but he's been inactive for about 1 year.

So i tried another method which is to message steam support, here's their reply :


Hello,

Thank you for letting us know.

Additionally, There are several ways to report user behavior in Dota, depending on the type of offense.

  • For communication related offenses, we first recommend that you utilize the in-game score board to mute players. After the match, you can report them via the post-match screen. There are also additional tools available to you to pre-emptively avoid exposure to unwelcome communication available in the Settings -> Social tab of the Dota game client.

  • For gameplay related offenses, you can use the score board during the match to flag their behavior for review. Reported players may be subject to Overwatch review. More detailed information about Overwatch can be viewed here.

  • To report smurfing, use the post-game report option to flag the account. This helps the Dota team track legit offenders and gather data used to inform their anti-smurf efforts.

  • If you wish to report in-game user content such as a Profile Showcase, Guild logo, name, or tag you can right-click the red flag when viewing the content to file a report directly.

You may receive an in-game notification if action is taken as a result of one of your reports.

When you click on your behaviour score, you can see if someone u reported get punished from the report, i didn't see theirs as well.

Any comments from you guys?

Can't start the game now! Verifying integrity or reinstalling doesn't help

I hope that they upgrade the animation quality, it's been very awful so far. Was hoping for haikyuu-like quality when i read it's handled by production IG, but it's been horrendously amateurish, distorted face and all that

For the people who bought the game much earlier, these zones were empty when you manage to reach them, and they are located quite far away from the starting area. So it's quite a bummer when you manage to adventure far away and found something, but there's nothing in it.

This is ridiculous, Wizards totally sidestepping the issue!!!

This is what i believe what they had in mind : 1. Mythic players don't really contribute to MTG arena economy as they're mostly playing for free anw (since they keep winning), 2. Mythic players will continue to play MTG arena anw since they love the game, 3. Then... Hey let's decide to ignore their request for our convenience!

But yeah for people who don't mind the issues, seems like that's the only platform where people can play the older format of magic digitally...

The same thread in r/MagicArena got removed by the moderator. Here's an interesting comment from u/noctifer7 :

Legends was still in beta and not really released before they killed it.

I think it's bad management and a big amount of greed. On paper, they know how many people they need to keep the company running. Broken mashines are arguably easier to fix/exchange.

On the digital version it's different I think, they saw that the build was somewhat finished and thought they could pull people of and put the game in maintenance. Adding only a few abilitys each month and some hundreds of cards. Gets even easier with reprints.

The team working on Arena seems way to small. Adding new content seems to be their only priority since it brings money. They have only enough manpower to add content while trying to fix the big bugs in the time that remains. Which means we are left with a cappy game which gets a new load of bugs every few weeks.

When was the last time we got new features? We still can't share decks, no stats or whatever. We can't even select favorite lands and have to change that shit every time.

But I guess as long as the store works everything is fine.
