What Is Low Priority in Dota 2? How to Get Out Fast
What Is Low Priority?
Low Priority (LP) is Dota 2's punishment queue for players who receive enough reports or abandon games. LP games are played in Single Draft mode — you're given three random heroes to pick from, and games tend to be chaotic and low-quality. You must win a specific number of LP games before returning to normal matchmaking.
How You End Up in Low Priority
The main causes are: leaving a game in progress (even due to disconnection), receiving multiple reports in a short period, or being flagged by Valve's anti-abuse system. A single abandon puts you in LP for one win. Repeated offenses escalate to 3, 5, or even 10 required wins.
Why LP Is Hard to Escape
LP lobbies are filled with players who also have poor behavior scores — meaning high rates of feeding, griefing, and early abandon. Winning even a single LP game can take 60–90 minutes when teammates are actively ruining the game. The 10-game LP bracket is one of the most demoralizing places in competitive gaming.
Getting Out Yourself vs. Getting Help
If you have 1–3 LP games, you can usually grind through them yourself by picking reliable Single Draft carries. If you have 5+ LP games, the time investment is significant and each game actively hurts your mental game. NecroBoost LP removal starts at $2.25/game for bulk orders — boosters play naturally in Single Draft and send confirmation after every game.
Avoiding LP in the Future
Never leave a game once it starts, even if you're losing badly. Use the in-game surrender vote (requires team agreement) instead of abandoning. Mute toxic players immediately rather than engaging. And always ensure your internet connection is stable before queuing — ISP-related disconnects still count as abandons in most cases.
