Console in Dota 2 is a command line interface that allows players to modify, customize or interact with the game using lines of text or commands. You can’t access the command line by default unless you activate it in the Steam Launch Options.
Activate Command Line in Dota 2
To open console / command line in the game, open your Steam Client and find the Dota 2 icon in your steam library. Right click Dota 2 and click Properties. Go to the general tab and find the Launch Options. In the text box, type -console and close the tab.
Launch Dota 2 and go to hero Workshop to see if the console is accessible. The default button for opening the console is \ but you can change it in the Hotkey Setup and it can be found in the Advance Hotkeys.
Press the designated Hotkey for the console, in my case is \ , and you will see it appearing on your screen. After that, you can now type in commands that you want in the game.
There are a lot of commands available in Dota 2 and you can all check it out here.
