Dota 2: How to Come Out of the ‘2K MMR Trench’

That is how I feel about the newcomer-friendly changes to Dota 2 . However, there have also been some issues that caused unnecessary challenges for new players in the past. To help new players, we are now restricting hero selection to a curated group of twenty heroes for their first twenty-five games. Dota had a version of this anyway in the form of Limited Heroes mode but you had to specifically queue for it rather than it being thrust upon you.

It is especially important for a new player to have a good social experience while they are first trying to learn the game. The matchmaking system will now ensure that new players will play with and against appropriately-skilled players that also have a track record of good behavior.
