VPN Dota 2 anti-DDoS protection for the best online gaming experience

Play safe, play fast

Avoid bandwidth throttling

If your ISP is throttling your bandwidth for gaming, the resulting lag can cost you the match. By encrypting your traffic, NordVPN prevents your ISP from seeing specific activities and automatically throttling your connection. For top speed, connect to a NordVPN server close to your game’s region.

DDoS protection

DDoS attacks are a common tactic used by hostile players to get revenge or score a cheap kill. NordVPN gives you a solid shield against DDoS attacks in the form of sophisticated VPN servers. Any attack against you will be absorbed by the server’s defenses — and if you start lagging, it only takes one click to jump to another and resume playing.

In addition, NordVPN helps avoid bandwidth throttling and DDoS attacks, meaning you get peak performance out of your game at all times.

Should I use a free VPN for online games?

Some free VPNs are even a security risk, collecting and selling your data to cover server maintenance costs.
