Nix accused Valve of destroying Dota 2

Alexander “Nix” Levin said that he doesnt want to come back to Dota 2 because Valve allegedly destroyed everything good in the game and stopped developing it.

He said this during a stream on Twitch

“You understand that it doesnt depend on me? Developer for many years does nothing with the game, except some Crownfall curiosities. And everything that worked good and was great, he just killed

I just remind you, if you are like 15 years old and calibrating at 5k MMR to go into esports, you need 13k MMR and maybe you will get it at 35 years old. Even if you are decent player. So good luck. Developer just doesnt care about users at all

And now I just watch tournaments, and even that I cant say I really enjoy. Partly its my job and people like it”

Nix noted that there are almost no events in the game except Crownfall, and Dota 2 is not really developing. He also said that developers no longer listen to players, and MMR looks ridiculous because of huge inflation.

According to him, young players physically cant grind enough rating to reach pro level, so the scene becomes stagnant. The streamer believes this also negatively affects tournaments.
