QoL Suggestion: when a player disconnected, inform me the name of the hero instead of the player.

when a player leave the game due to inactivity or disconnection, the message would appear as "ABC has left the game". I usually have no idea who that is, and have to tab to find out who he was playing as, or look through the map manually. Funny enough, when that player return, the message would appear as "ABC(hero name) has rejoined the game!".

    And maybe we should also know when someone on the enemy team leaves/comes back to the game? That would be awesome!

    This is actually intentionally hidden to prevent exploitation of certain situations when an AI takes over. :)

    Also, show the hero name of who is in the DK or Terror, not the account name.

    This is something I've wanted forever, or at least since approximately (exactly) July 19th, 2016. We have a task on backlog for this I am seeing if we can get bumped up into a patch shipping in the next several months at least. :)

    This is a great suggestion, I've started a discussion on this topic. (And showing both names would be ideal for this as others have mentioned).
