Toxic community does not make a game bad, learning to cope with angry people and responding to uglyness with kind words and helpful messages has gotten me far in this game. RARELY do I deal with anyone toxic at all, and even then it's mostly them trash talking. Before you call this game's community awful try asking if you were kind at every chance you could be, and if you make the community better. I've made important friendships through Dota and exactly zero enemies, so yes. I do recommend this game, wholeheartedly.
