One Dota 2 pro player was seemingly on Valve’s naughty list, having been gifted a chunk of coal and a permanent ban while livestreaming.
Earlier this week, Valve pushed this year’s festive winter update, called Frostivus, which promised to gift players on the nice list and punish those on the naughty list. The publisher/developer said that the ban hammer would be coming down hard on thousands of players who used smurf accounts, engaged in toxic behavior, or paid to arbitrarily boost behavior scores.
