camera positioning question in General Discussion

    I've a bit of a problem with camera positioning. I don't own a gaming laptop and my avg fps is 20-30 I really have trouble to keep my camera poisitionex properly especially in team fight when fps go lowest.
    1.Can anyone suggest tweaks in settings.
    2. I use mouse to move camera. Ive heard people using wasd is it better? I doubt I can change now but if it helps me then I can try.

    Any 3rd party software that can improve performance by shutting unnecessary app in Windows while I game.(but doesn't affect the computer)

      Camera control is normally up to whatever is most comfortable to you. I personally use WASD myself, but pros tend to use edge panning and hero centering since that's what they started with.
