Can we get Rematch, BO3 and “Schedule next game” buttons? (+ bonus: queue tags)
I have been playing since 2011, immortal support, mostly play with the same group of friends now. And the more I play as a stack the more I feel like matchmaking doesn’t treat dota as a team game at all
I think there is a couple of things that seem really easy to add:
a tag when you queue. something like “testing new heroes”, “chill game”, “tryhard”. and let us search only with people using the same tag. half the bad games I play aren’t even losses, it’s 5 guys trying random heroes for fun getting stomped by a stack that’s dead serious, or the opposite. nobody has fun in that game, also I know that people will try to abuse the system, so you would have to avoid the people who don't respect their tag also this is for unranked/turbo.
rematch button. we lose, we ask for a bo3, they accept or not. we just spent 40 min learning how these guys draft and play and then it’s gone forever. second game against the same team is always the best one, that’s why pro games are series. make it unranked if you want, I don’t care about the points
or even better, “same time tomorrow?” We’re adults. Someone has work, someone’s girlfriend is waiting, we can’t play 3 games in a row at 1am. Let us schedule a lobby with the other team. you’d end up with a team you play every thursday and actually know. that used to be how you made friends in games.
