20 hour ban
Hello, so I started playing like a week ago or something, still fairly new, my conduct seems in good shape 10k, 0 games abandoned, 0 matchmaking declines... however 2 days ago I got my first overwatch penalty 6 hours i think and the problem is I have no clue the reason I wished it clarified so i could avoid in future... however is passed and all was good till today... another overwatch penalty now its 20 hours!!!! I dont understand ... I am a new player so ofcourse my skill level is still fairly low, might this be the reason for the ban? is it possible for overwatch to ban a player for low skill level? if so how do you get better at the game I do not understand. I need help. Is there a way to know the reason of the overwatch verdict?

How does the Overwatch system work in Dota 2?
While playing the game, you will find a red flag on the scoreboard near the Player’s name and KDA. You can click that to report a player. However, every player gets only a certain number of reports every week. So, use it wisely.

You can report fellow players and even the opponents in the game under one of the following categories:

Feeding
Ability Abuse
Suspicious Movement/Casts
Scripting/Hacking
Griefing
There is also a time-frame you can report them under. This means you can tell Valve, exactly when one or more of the incidents happened:

Just Now
1 Minute ago
5 Minutes ago
You can report a player multiple times in the same game, without using up any extra reports. Once you have reported a player, the case will be assigned to one of the specific members of the Dota 2 community who has a good-standing. They will take a call as to whether the play you reported is Guilty, Not Guilty, or whether it lacks enough evidence.

I dont get it all I was doing was playing the match... no hacks or anything, I dont think I was greifing Im not the best player but certainly I was not workign against my team, I died a few times but I was not feedign intentionally... I might not have played well but its not intentional I am still learning how to farm up quickly, so if I keep getting banned how else will I become better?

is there a way to atleast see what you are doing wrong?

I've never been good at this game. I've never been banned either. There is probably something wrong with your behavior to get all of these people to report you? Are you arguing with people or just sucking quietly by yourself?

If you feel you are unfairly banned. Report it to the steam support https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithGame/?appid=570

I never trash talked at all with anyone ... 0 times, also never been trash talked by anyone, my conduct score is 10k so I really dont understand...

I contacted steam this was their response

"This account is under a matchmaking restriction due to an Overwatch conviction. Overwatch empowers the Dota community to regulate negative behavior -- Steam Support does not review or remove Overwatch restrictions."

I just even want to know the reason behind the conviction! to avoid in future... i mean 2 penalties in 3 days?! there must be something wrong.
same EXACT thing happening to me right now..... did you find a solution??
