Despite being a relatively new team in the competitive Dota 2 scene, entering in April 2020, they have been performing well and have been competing in Division I since Tour 1 of the 2023 DPC season. However, recent unfortunate events have marred its journey, resulting in the loss of 6 PCs and 5 Monitors from its gaming house.

The theft of the organization in Peru is a significant blow to the organization. In South America, where teams often struggle with limited funding, the financial costs associated with replacing such equipment can be a major challenge. However, despite this setback, Infinity remains resilient and hopeful that it will be able to recover from this unfortunate incident. The police are actively investigating the case, and the community's support and solidarity are greatly appreciated as Infinity looks to overcome this hurdle and continue its journey in the Dota Pro Circuit.
