Reckon it's time we yarn about the Oz scene proper?A Quick History of Dota 2 in the Land of OzDota 2 touched down in Australia around 2013, right after Valve's big release. Back then, ping was a nightmare – 300ms to SEA servers had us crying into our Tim Tams. But nah, we persisted! Early days saw blokes forming pubs on US East for that sweet 200ms, screaming "laggy cunts!" over comms. By 2015, local heroes like OG (with our own Burst from Melbourne) started shining on the world stage. Remember TI5? Aussies were glued to screens in internet cafes from Brissy to Adelaide. We've birthed talents like Ana (RIP his form) and top DPC grinders.
