I'm really thinking they're just wanting to make swap in SD with some neat UI and didn't manage to put it in yet. I really hope so

His method is hardly based on the actual performance bars, he might as well have said "I'm starting to play heroes I have less than 5 games on."

Having swap in -SD is just like playing a form of RD but with no turns and really complicated for users. It usually ends up with people arguing over who to swap with who etc. I think the point of -SD is to force you to play heroes and line ups that you do not normally use. Can't see swap being put in -SD for a very long time...

If that were true it would be disabled in dota 1 as well. People would host AR -noswap because that actually does what you're referring to.

Not having swap doesn't change lineups people pick at all in SD except at skill levels where it shouldn't matter (the ones where there are people who have never played any of their 3 SD options, or played against them, or have only ever played with or against one of them).

Arguing about swaps is going to happen even MORE in RD than in SD.

If arguing about something is really a reason not to enable it then you may as well disable AP, SD, CM, RD, and everything but solo bot games. Arguing and flaming for no reason is like the first love of most dota players.

random is way easier than what i'm doing. i'm basically intentionally challenging myself to play heroes i avoid.

for the record normally i random a lot. playing an unfamiliar hero with bonus gold is easy

Concede is bad and useless. It doesn't fit in the game at all.

The only barrier to truth is the presumption that you already have it. It's through our pane (pain) we window (win though).

Guess we have different opinions on that one. I personally don't understand why it isn't in the game. Some games are totally waste of fucking time and i bet you have had games like that also.

Of course, but I also had games were my team was like 10 kills behind with a rax down and we still managed to win. If concede was in the game I'm sure that all those comebacks wouldn't have happened.

There are many games where I wish I could concede about 20-30 minutes into the game, but every now and then a seemingly-lost game ends in victory making all those other games worth it.

Please no concede. It just encourages the toxic group environment. If you have played lol you know what I mean. 3 out of 5 want to concede, 2 don't want to. Let the flames and feed begin.
