Dota 2 is an intense competitive game that may not always bring out the best in players. Arguments can heat up any match, and that’s where the mute button comes in. Dota 2 players have the option to mute each other to keep their peace, but Arteezy revealed that peacekeeper has been putting players at a disadvantage.
Shopify Rebellion’s star player said that muting players were also blocking some in-game sound queues that can be game-changing. According to Arteezy, it isn’t possible to hear a player’s buyback sound after muting them. Considering muting the enemy team is a common practice in professional matches due to voice lines and stickers being spammed, competitive players found themselves at crossroads.
