In Dota, there are various settings that are outside the software’s reach, meaning some settings are purely hardware reliant. These settings are extremely helpful and may even change the way you play the game. 

To help you get the best out of your gear, we have compiled this list of the Best 3 Mouse Settings that are guaranteed to give you an advantage!

3. Macro Settings

If you’re a man of culture and you own one of those shiny and magnificent-looking gaming mice, you may know there are various different buttons alongside the basic ones. These buttons can serve a great deal of purpose if you know how to use them correctly. Heroes such as Meepo and Tinker can benefit massively as you can bind their spells on these buttons, making your job ten times easier and surprising your buddies with your great gameplay! Macros are totally safe and legal in Dota.

2. DPI

DPI (or simply Dots Per Inch), is a vital component for any mouse setting. It essentially measures how sensitive your mouse is, meaning the higher the DPI of the mouse, the more sensitive it is. A DPI between 800 to 1200 is generally great for Dota, as you don’t require pixel-perfect precision. 

1. Mouse Sensitivity

Mouse sensitivity can play a great role in determining your gameplay, especially if you’re a new player. It is generally recommended to use a Windows sensitivity of 6/11 without any smoothing. This can be done by accessing the pointer options under the Mouse section in Control Panel.

What is Lorem Ipsum?It's time for them to learn their place. Reina storms the King of Iron Fist Tournament in #TEKKEN8  Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.     Why do we use it?It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).Where does it come from?Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.Where can I get some?There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised
