Marble-clad esports lounge floor at NovaChampionVault
South Melbourne · Est. 2016

Where Champions Are Carved From Marble & Light

A boutique esports vault on York Street — ranked-grade rigs, private tournament arenas and coaching that turns ladder anxiety into podium finishes.

Our Story

From a Back-Room LAN to a Marble Vault

Nine years of building the room we always wished existed in Melbourne — quiet, exacting, and obsessed with your average FPS.

  1. 2016

    The First Twelve Seats

    Founders Dae-sung and Priya opened a twelve-rig LAN room above a coffee roaster on Coventry Street, running Friday-night CS scrims for local clans.

  2. 2019

    The York Street Move

    We took over the old marble showroom at 73 York Street, keeping the veined stone slabs and pairing them with brushed-brass rig bays and acoustic ceilings.

  3. 2022

    Coaching Vault Opens

    Three ex-tier-1 analysts joined to build our review rooms, VOD stations and the structured coaching program now used by four state-level rosters.

  4. 2025

    40 Seats & Two Arenas

    Today the floor runs 40 ranked-grade stations, two soundproofed arenas and a VR bay — open until midnight, seven days a week.

Good to Know

Questions, Answered

Walk-ins are welcome whenever seats are free, and off-peak weekday afternoons almost always have space. For Friday and Saturday nights we strongly recommend booking a station online or by phone, as the marble row fills fast after 6pm. Members can reserve their seat up to seven days ahead.

We are open every day from 10:00am until midnight, including public holidays. The coaching vault and review rooms run by appointment between 11:00am and 9:00pm. Last station sign-in is 11:00pm.

Every ranked-grade rig pairs an RTX-class GPU with a 240Hz IPS panel, low-latency mechanical keyboard and a choice of pro-grade mice. Titles are pre-installed and patched nightly, and you can log into your own Steam, Riot, Battle.net and EA accounts securely — they are wiped at logout.

Yes. Arena One seats a full 5v5 with a spectator stage, and we regularly run clan brackets, corporate nights and birthdays. Private arena hire starts at $140/hour and includes a staff referee and casting setup. Get in touch and we will tailor a run sheet.

Not at all — most of our coached members sit between Gold and Diamond and just want to climb faster. Sessions start with a VOD review of your own games, then a focused practice plan. A single 60-minute review is $75, or it is included with Vault and Champion memberships.
