About us

Who We Are

FastPlayWars is an entirely Australian-owned platform created by gamers, for gamers. What started in a suburban garage in Brisbane as a weekend project to eliminate lag has evolved into a nationwide arena where thousands of PC players compete every day. We live and breathe esports culture, but we never forget the simple joy of firing up a game after work and getting a smooth, fair match in seconds.

Our Story

Back in 2021, a group of friends grew tired of 200 ms pings on “global” servers and the pay-to-win ecosystems creeping into their favourite titles. They set up a single custom server in Sydney, invited a few Discord buddies, and discovered something magical: when latency disappears, skill and sportsmanship shine. Word spread, the lobby overflowed, and FastPlayWars was officially born.

Since then, we’ve expanded with data-centre partners in Melbourne and Perth, rolled out proprietary anti-cheat tech, and built a browser dashboard that makes competitive play as simple as click > queue > play. Yet our founding principle hasn’t changed—every Australian deserves world-class infrastructure at home, not halfway across the planet.

Mission

Our mission is to accelerate Australian esports by combining lightning-fast servers, transparent competitive systems and an inclusive community. Whether you’re chasing pro dreams, streaming to a handful of mates, or just squeezing in two ranked matches before dinner, FastPlayWars exists to maximise the time you spend doing what you love: playing.

What We Stand For

  1. Fair Play – Zero tolerance for cheats, smurfs or toxic behaviour.
  2. Community First – Decisions are shaped by player feedback channels, town-hall AMAs and player-run councils.
  3. Local Investment – A fixed percentage of every premium sub funds server upgrades, grassroots tournaments and STEM scholarships.
  4. Accessibility – Browser-first design, adaptive UI options, and mentorship programs ensure everyone can compete on equal footing.

Technology & Infrastructure

  • Low-Latency Servers – Housed in tier-III Australian data centres for sub-20 ms ping nationwide.
  • Smart Match-Making – Machine-learning models pair you with players of similar skill, reducing stomp matches by 43 % year-over-year.
  • Cross-Game Profiles – Track performance across every supported title in one clean dashboard.
  • Real-Time Analytics – Post-match heat maps, economy graphs and aim-consistency charts delivered within seconds of victory (or defeat).

Community & Partnerships

We collaborate with indie developers, hardware brands and local esports organisations to keep the scene vibrant. From charity marathons supporting bush-fire relief to university leagues that feed fresh talent into the Oceanic pro circuit, we see gaming as a force for good—and we put our servers, staff and sponsorship dollars behind that belief.

The Team

FastPlayWars is powered by a tight-knit crew of network engineers, former pro players, shout-casters, designers and one dangerously coffee-addicted community manager. We work remotely across Australia’s time zones, but meet IRL at quarterly “LAN-offs” to stress-test new builds, swap ideas and, inevitably, trash-talk each other’s K/D ratios.

Looking Forward

In 2025 we’re rolling out Oceania’s first edge-compute spectator mode, allowing viewers to hop into live matches with near-zero delay. We’re also partnering with schools to introduce a certified curriculum that uses in-game analytics to teach data science fundamentals.

FastPlayWars is still a young company, but our vision is crystal clear: a self-sustaining ecosystem where Australian gamers can progress from casual queue to centre-stage championship without ever leaving home soil.
