Hopefully they'll use it to make Dota 2 for Linux comparable to Dota 2 for Windows :)

Right now it doesn't perform well at all (using 2x more memory and being significantly slower on Intel GPUs) , and still comes with an annoying sound bug (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Dota-2/issues/770)

It may be related to Intel's drivers, as I am playing Team Fortress 2 on Linux, which is I believe native OpenGL, and it is significantly slower than on Windows with an intel GPU.

I think it is since I get a higher frame rate for Team Fortress 2 under Linux than under windows. I use the nvidia blob.
