Valve’s DOTA 2 is amongst the greatest Five VS Five games in the world. The multiplayer online game provides the players with an interface of choosing different characters with distinct abilities and enter in a match to become “Godlike”.

How to increase FPS in DOTA 2?
You can boost FPS in DOTA 2 using simple changes in the Video settings of the game. Many prefer using “My Monitor’s Current Resolution” which can be considered as a safe option if you are using a non-gaming laptop to play this game. However, one must know, DOTA 2 will give you a very different experience if you personalise your graphic quality as per how you desire it to be. But, one must also make sure that your PC is capable enough for the settings you choose. If you are not sure about your PC’s performance, choosing “My Monitor’s Current Resolution” is the safest and best option.
Nevertheless, if you are having lag issues due to the FPS settings, you need to change it. To boost FPS in DOTA 2, you need to “Use Advance Settings” and follow the below-given instructions.

Dota 2 Launch Options 2022
How to open the launch options:
Open the Steam launcher
Go on the Library tab
Press right mouse button on Dota 2
Select Properties and go on the General tab
Press “Set Launch Options…”
Here is a list of useful commands you can include in the launch options:
-map dota
It loads the Dota 2 map when you launch the game. This reduces loading times after you find a game.
-high
It gives Dota 2 high CPU priority, which might increase your fps.
-language “English”
It sets your game language to English. You can select any language supported by the game.
- -dx9
- -dx11
- -vulkan
- -gl
It forces the game to run on DX9, DX11, Vulkan, or OpenGL.
-32bit
Dota 2 automatically uses the 64-bit client if you are on a 64-bit OS, but you can use this command to force the 32-bit client. AFAIK, there isn’t a performance difference, but the 32-bit one drains less ram.
-console
It enables the console in-game.
+fps_max #
The in-game settings are limited to 240 fps, but with this command you can increase the fps limit.
-w “width” -h “height”
You can indicate a custom value for the width and height of your monitor. I use it to display correctly my 21:9 aspect ratio.
-prewarm
A new experimental launch option to help lower-end systems that face a black screen or long load times during game connection.
