Petition Post to bring back the old dota 6.83d [EDIT - I added a poll]

As we all know today, the apem dota game hosted by ent has changed map to 6.85k.

I believe this map is a overall downgrade from 6.83d for the following reasons.

- It is no longer apem but rather just ap, this makes the game unnecessarily long where farm is only 1 gold/ sec and I believe the majority of players who join '[ENT] DotA apem us/ca #' are not looking for long games

- New items are fine and always welcomed but changes are not pragmatic. one wrong click and you end up consuming the item and settling for a downgrade

- The overall graphics of the game is now alot more big & clunky making the games more in line with dota 2. I believe the majority of players here play original dota because it is 'the classic' and if we wanted the dota 2 theme, we would've just switched to d2 already

- I've seen/heard some players are experiencing some sort of keyboard glitch where if they click on any hotkeys, they are automatically drawn back to base essentially making it impossible to play.

I write this post for the moderators to consider changing back to 6.83d or atleast provide their gamers a option to revert back.

Thank you for your time.

Me and everyone else I have talked to totally agree with you. every point is dead on

I don't like how its not even APEM it's so boring and long every game. Please bring back the old version we would very much appreciate it, thanks

Agree with everything he says especially the hot keys part makes it impossible to play.

I would like to add that it is also misleading to put these games under em mode when they care non-em (slower gold gain and slower xp gain).

In my opinion the new version is just a lower quality version of dota 2, which most players are not here for hence we haven't moved to dota 2 yet, but if this map continues to be the only thing hosted then many players will have no choice but to move on to dota 2.

I too would like the old versions back. As others have stated, I'm not interested in playing dota 2 which is why I am still with ENT.

Old version, please!


DRB's biggest mistake was to stay on this crappy version. no wonder they need 20 mins to wait for game to start.

ITS FULL OF GLITCHES, BUGS N OP STUFF. got over 500 games in this version, trust me, it SUCKS.

Definitely not a fan. Going to just catch up on some tv series for now and play pokemon go, haha.

@peterpanpark Consider adding a poll to topic. Would be easier to tally up whose in favor of 6.83 or 6.85.

Meh, played it a couple of times now and it feels a bit strange..

@peterpanpark Perhaps edit and include a poll? Community input would be key here if a map revert is request.
