There are actually a few servers, however let me warn u, if you change anything to give me hassle ima moer u
just kidding, my packets and everything are fine with afrihost.
Pretty much what you looking for is tcpview, when in game, alt tab run tcp view and see what ip is using most for dota 2. Then you can do a tracert to that address.

Hmmm not sure...
Always have wanted to mess around with wireshark though.....
Oh crapballs forgot death much easier way to do it...
Will post now just wanna make doubly sure...
==============================================================
Update 2
==============================================================
Ok what to do
1. Enable console (If you dont know how In steam library > Right Click Dota 2 > Properties > Set launch options. Type in -console apply etc etc)
2. Close console when in game
3. Create a Private lobby (Set server to europe) and start game
4. When in game (dont even need to start playing) open console (Generally tilde key `)
It will show the IP and port, generally something like this
Connecting to public(146.66.152.33:27021) ...
381.453: Sending UDP connect to public IP 146.66.152.33:27021

Yea monk but generally 9 times out 10 the issue actually lies within SA, already just by doing this little test there is a HUGE jump in ping in capetown somewhere...
But you right ICMP packets are blocked by valve side

Wireshark is more for packet inspection rather than network performance evaluation. At from my dealings with it, can't really say I'm an expert.
