Quoted:

The courier pathing should be better, avoiding dangerous situations would be a good start.


How would "avoiding dangerous situations" be coded/defined? I always felt that microing your courier is just part of the skill / strategy of DotA 2.

When you call the courier, he comes to you by the fastest way, not the safest.

Yeah, if the courier dies it's your fault for bringing it into dangerous territory. For early-mid game this can be easily solved by upgrading it, with it walking it can easily be picked off by anyone roaming through your jungle. If you're a support, it's good to get in the habit of upgrading the courier the second you have enough gold for it.

1.) A "Kicking" system - We always had have a team mate who is a serial feeder and we know that our game would have been and will be so much better without him.


A kicking system hurts more than it helps;
I came from Left 4 Dead where kick reasons (ulthough unstated) were as silly as "You're bad, I don't like your face, I'm inviting my grandmother who's good at this"

While feeders are deemed uncontributional to the game, the kick feature wouldn't work; games where the kick feature was applied are typically 'drop-in-drop-out' scenarios, whereas Dota is a contious game, starting from when you hit the 'Accept' button to ready a game.
