Hey,


Please consider broadening your search parameters. The goal of Dota's matchmaker is to find players of similar skill who are queuing for the same parameters in your selected region(s). By expanding the parameters as wide as possible, you have a larger pool of players to potentially match with.

These options are found in the lower right corner of the client above the Find Match button:
* Language, Secondary Language > No selection
* Region > Automatically pick the best region based on my location or select multiple regions to queue on

Other things to consider to improve your search time:
* Queue for multiple game modes and include All Pick
* Make sure that 'Strict Solo Ranked Matchmaking' is disabled - Settings > Options > Advanced Options.
* Match maker will try to match you with players with similar conduct. A positive conduct summary will result in a faster queue times, as you can be matched with a broader group of players.

Finally, the availability of players in the region you are queuing on is a factor that will increase wait times. If you are queuing for a less popular game mode, during off-peak times for your region, you will experience longer wait times.
