Hero Name on Minimap no longer available?
As the topic title dictates, I can't seem to find the option to use "Hero Names to Display on minimap" rather than icons anymore.

Is there a way to do this through console or something? I've been using this setting for more than 10 years and it's really affecting gameplay.

This is a very important feature for me, i immediately stopped functioning in game when i realized that i can't decode hero icon instead of hero name.

In the heat of the battle all hero icons becomes too fuzzy to interpret quickly, all i had to do was see red color and read names.

But now it is taking me more time to decode in minimap that if the white icon hero is cm, zeus or jugg and they are my enemy or ally. In the mean time i die by enemy ambush while decoding.

I will cancel my subscription as my friends did... really was tired of unbalanced patches with broken, no skill needed heroes, worst pathing ever and finally now that somethings may improved minimap got unusable for me. I lost 2 games because of that, for me game became is unplayable. What was the reason? why? WHO, What kind of a Genius decided to do that??? Instead of team doing things like: maybe we balance and improve gameplay they went O just lower armor by 1 on Specter and remove **** names from minimap. Coming from warcraft, dota 1, really sad to see this **** happaning over. I really like dota 2 but I won't take time to play any videogame that IS uncomfortable to play.
