Just wanted to chime in and say that it doesn't run on Windows 10 (Intel Skylake GPU) with the latest beta driver (crashes after a few moments, very low FPS).
I wonder how they had it running at GDC. :P

Really looking forward to the benchmark results!

Well now I may have to install all the beta stuff and see how it outputs @ 4k on the blob.

I just installed the game and played very well, the fps maybe more than opengl, but I notice smoother gameplay and less drop of fps on tf, this on gtx 750 2GB.

Runs well on my gtx770 with nvidia blob. At 120fps which is probably a cap. Untill it froze, froze xorg and became a zombie process.

Two different drivers and a test case designed around the driver.

According to the release notes Intel GPUs are not officially supported for now.

i7-4790K, GTX 780, 16 GB RAM.
On both SteamoS and Windows 10, lower FPS and less fluctuation:

Im not positive if I ran OpenGL Dota or Vulkan, is there a special launch option I have to add?

I launched the DOTA 2 app with the Vulkan DLC downloaded and it ran at about 120FPS but never went higher it seemed?
