Welcome to the trenches, enjoy your stay.
If Volvo would ban all these accounts, Dota2 population would drop by 30% minimum.

Why does Swedish car manufacturers have a say but not German like Opel og BMW. Seems unfair

I feel like it was a mix of being drunk and then using the phrase “I don’t lie” which is similar to how Nahaz says “Stats don’t lie”.

Sn0 can correct me if I’m wrong.

Yeah, its pretty rough, though tbh its not as bad as it used to be. The report smurfs function has improved it a bit. But yeah, playing in divine is like 50% just immortal players stomping

It gets especially bad when there's a new patch or when TI is approaching due to the influx of players coming back. You get people that are ex 6k+ players that have decayed to low Ancient, and even though they might be a little bit washed up they're still fundamentally on a different level than low 4k players lol.

Yeah, I mean, most of the time though the accounts i have trouble with are level 50-70 divine accounts who have just not enough games to explain why they solo killed their lane 5 times and whatnot. Those are what make dota very *not fun*.

You're right. After cancelling TI Volvo should get canceled as well.
