    You know, I find it quite annoying that hackers will choose a target like Steam rather than a force that’s actually evil in this world. Like, put your skills to good use at least…

    I played a few DoTA games with friends while this was occurring and twice during gameplay approximately 10 seconds of play experienced some server-side lag for everyone in the game - there were moments of confusion that rapidly passed. Steam ops team did well.

    Truly a tremendous impact and a fantastic use of the attackers time and resources.

      My game last night was more like a couple minutes of lag. Luckily, Dota has an in-built system to detect it, so the game wasn’t recorded and those of us who didn’t leave spent the remainder of the game messing around.
