My behavior score was raised to near max. Noticeably getting better teammates now. They played cleanly on my account to improve my standing.
What is Behavior Score in Dota 2?
Behavior Score in Dota 2 determines your attitude rating in the matchmaking. This number reflects your in-game outlook and matches you with players of similar level. It ranges from 1,000 to 10,000 where the more points you have, the better experience you’ll be having with better matchmaking, faster queue times and friendlier teammates. Lower will negatively affect your queue times, and limit the game modes you can play, while also teaming you up with more toxic players Here you can see the attitude ranks and their effects:
| Behavior Rating Range | Description | Impact on Gameplay |
|---|---|---|
| 9,000 - 10,000 | Excellent behavior; minimal reports or penalties | Friendly teammates, fast queues, high-quality matches |
| 7,500 - 8,999 | Good behavior; occasional negative feedback | Balanced matchmaking, cooperative games |
| 5,000 - 7,499 | Average behavior; moderate reports | Mixed matchmaking with potential toxicity |
| Below 5,000 | Poor behavior; frequent reports and penalties | Hostile teammates, long queues, mode restrictions |
Having a high rating means better gaming experience and smoother matchmaking. Positive actions like commending teammates, not being toxic and not abandoning matches can help increase your it over time. The new system shows how important behavior is in creating a welcoming and competitive Dota 2 environment.
