Dota Plus End of Summer Update: Ranked Roles Matchmaking Is Back

Kill Ping writes: "A few months back, Valve came out with something the community has never seen in the history of Dota 2. It was a brand new service called Dota Plus which is a premium monthly subscription that comes with additional features like hero progression, statistical analysis, shards, relics, terrains, Chat Wheel lines, and cosmetic item rewards.

Well, today, the developers have added in another feature to the already massive list of active services, one which the community has been asking for since the end of the 2018 Battle Pass – Role Based Ranked Matchmaking".

Pardon my ignorance for never having played this, but why even have the ability to create multiple guest accounts? It seems if there is only one account per player then it would eliminate this smurfing issue.

Probably to get new players hooked on the addictive gameplay loop, more people playing = statistically more people buying battle passes.

Makes sense and cents for Valve. Thanks

Why would seasoned players want to play with lower skill players anyway? Just to owned them? They’re n00bs, what’s the fun in that?

It’s like on COD where they do bad on purpose for a few rounds, to then be place with with bad players to then dominate.

This is human nature. I know people who do this in Dota2, CoD and other multiplayer games. They enjoy the dopamine rush that winning generates.
