As a person with no Dota background there is a lot of **** in game that makes no sense. One thing that could easily be solved revolves around the game list screen.

I'll see several games in the list with symbols denoting what match settings there are. Can we get a mouseover tooltip on these symbols for the people that don't know them by heart?

I know this is a hefty request, but I'm sure it can be done. Hell.. look at the little symbols when you're making a post like I am. See all those little faces to the right of the post box.. or the editing symbols at the top of the post box.. damn.. mouseover tooltips.

There is a mousover left.
It explains all symbols.

While there is a key system on the left, I don't understand why mouseover isn't enabled on the icons by the games, does seem a bit counter-intuitive (im sure there is a coding reason behind it though!)

Well I found the key you were talking about. Mouseover would still be much easier to deal with.

only a few icons will be used most times sd(3 dots) rd(purple dots) normal(sword) em (gold coins) and all pick( + icon?)

it is like any game the icons will be new and will take a few games to learn nothings wrong with this though mouse over may help.
