HEROES of the STORM - LINUX - [Lutris Wine DXVK]
Heroes of the Storm (hots) Linux - ULTRA (sweet spot) with proton via Wine "Protonified" 3.21 + DXVK 0.93 - Volskaya Foundry map
[In Lutris use tkg-protonified-3.21-x86_64 (see ** below)]
The "sweetspot" config [sw sp] means the best image quality for at least 60fps framerate [without recording and on my specific hardware - see below]. Here we use ULTRA settings but with "Effects" on HIGH .
