Two of the biggest Dota 2 stars are coming to Melbourne, Australia for the AMD Dota 2 Pro Series. Jake “SirActionSlacks” Kanner and David “GoDz” Parker have just been announced as hosts to the event. SirActionSlacks will take the stage and GoDz will call all the action. These two guys bring the humor, experience, and knowledge to the Australian Dota 2 scene. The AMD Pro Series is so very lucky to have them in Melbourne for the tournament.

A player himself, Slacks began his Dota career after his 2013 YouTube video went viral. From there he became a beloved Dota personality. Producing more YouTube videos, streaming on Twitch, and hosting tons of international events. ESL One, The International, and plenty of Majors are on his resume.

Originally from Australia, the Aussies are super happy to have him back. An accomplished caster, GoDz has also added plenty of Majors and a number of The Internationals to his resume.
