I haven't played Dota2 for years, but the toxicity was a reason I stopped. So I am not sure this thing is effective. I know its a tough task, but still I believe that if one developer can have better solutions to this, than it would be Valve.

This has improved further in recent years, so you probably weren't seeing how it is now.

It may be different in other regions, but I see significantly less toxicity in Dota 2 compared to Counter-Strike, the only other big competitive game I have enough time in to compare it to. Though my CS experience was longer ago, and they could have improved things there, too.
