for those of you who still play, a bunch of (potentially) good changes coming to ranked

These changes look amazing, all I see in ranked right now is support pos 4 Invoker going Midas carry and pos 1 Carry afk farm with 0 tower damage and less hero damage than pos 5 support.

Along with role reports it should help clear this out.

Edit: Am worried about behavior score ban as I'm a filthy techies picker, that even though I carry and win my games, I get all kinds of reports from the salty enemy.

Well what's your behavior score? I'm sure that it has to be pretty drat low to get into the territory they are talking about in that post there. In my mind an exceptionally low behavior score is something like under 1k? Maybe under 500? They don't go into the negatives right?

An aside: I noticed my behavior score dropping a bit and I made an effort to clean up and I'm back up near 10k!

Valve has to know what community they have and account for imbeciles reporting techies/meepos/pudges inaccurately out of spite. Maybe compare their performance in a game to their accusation of a report automatically with a blatantly false report going in the trash.

PROBABLY. I play a LOT of "shitter" heroes as often as possible and my behavior score is like 9k even with the occasional traditional dota poo poo talking.

Wow, didn't even know it went that low, I'm between 5 and 6k on a bad week where I pick like 20 techies games, but my winrate averages 75% with techies. I probably don't have to worry.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were using a neural network for something like this, rather than just plain numbers.

I'm a bit confused by this post, do you want people to start reporting pos 4 Invoker? I think it usually sucks in poo poo tier mmr land but it isn't like exploiting ranked queue or anything.

They queue as support, pick Invoker and build as pos 1. Right now you can only report as did not play lane, rather than did not play role.

You gotta love people who queue Hard Support and then immediately ask "Can I mid?", and then even when you shout them down they pick some carry hero. And I believe the report thing says that reporting them as not playing their lane doesn't count as a report, so you don't even get the satisfaction of that without reporting them for something else. In the past week I had a "Hard Support" Sniper and ember.

Reso has been on the outs for a while now. His last real success was being the "EG killer" at TI7, wherein everyone forgets that Uni was just feeding treants to Sven all game.

I used to think Reso Void was still legit but he had some bad chronos at TI9.

2039? Jesus, that's a long-rear end time. For sure Eternal Envy should be banned for the same amount of time, right? Does being a professional player excuse you from the possibility of being banned?

There's talk that pro players cannot be banned for smurfing or having terrible behavior score. We'll see if EE or mason, both of which having 0/10000 behavior score, will get snipped.

January 19, 2038 is the end of the Unix epoch, which means that Valve still uses 32-bit timestamps. For shame.

Their main accounts have 10k while their smurfs have literally a score of 1.

I survived the purge, so their system is obviously poo poo.

In addition to the low rear end conduct score, it appears to be a purchased/boosted account, with a ton of games with all tinker and huskar at really high win rates at the start of the account, and then a sudden shift to normal hero spread with a piss poor win rate.

If you queue as support half of your inventory should be locked to support items only, make it happen Valve

Just have the rest unlock after 45 minutes so you don't cripple creative builds in the late game.
