#quick-startGet the overlay running
The current setup path, essential hotkeys, and clear instructions for showing or hiding each overlay.
Loading DotaSense...
Get DotaSense running, practice a timing, find people for a low-pressure match, and see what actually shipped. You never need to arrive with a clever introduction or keep up with a noisy general chat.
The server guide points newcomers here first. Everything else can wait until it is relevant.
#quick-startThe current setup path, essential hotkeys, and clear instructions for showing or hiding each overlay.
#help-and-feedbackAsk a setup question, report a bug, or explain the feature you wish existed. App version plus a screenshot is usually enough to begin.
#lfg-and-partyPost region, role, queue, start time, open slots, and whether the games are relaxed, practice-focused, or a serious climb.
#product-updatesConcise release notes with the public version and the controls available in that build—without mixing unreleased work into support advice.
Four are fast tactical calls. Two cover the moments people genuinely celebrate after a play or match.

:ds53:The camp-stacking window is here.

:dsrune:A power, bounty, or Wisdom rune is approaching.

:dscd:A key spell or item is unavailable.

:dswarded:Do not walk into the area blindly.

:dsgg:A team high-five after coordinated play.

:dsclutch:A last-second save, steal, escape, or decisive play.
Use a callout for speed, then add a time, location, or target when precision matters.
Party posts include region, queue, roles, start time, mic preference, open slots, and the intended vibe. Meet in Party Lobby before queueing, then move into Match Room once the game starts.
We are preparing an orange Supporter role, six extra conversational reactions, supporter polls, and first access when a party night has limited slots. The app, tactical emotes, help channels, and normal community events stay free.

:dsready:Ready to queue
:dsonemore:One more game
:dstp:TPing to help
:dsbuyback:Save buyback
:dstiltproof:Reset mental
:dsdraft:What is this draft?That is enough. Introductions are optional, and a nickname is all the personal information the server needs.
