Sumail(far right) is the youngest TI winner ever

Syed 'Sumail' Hassan was born in Karachi, Pakistan. He started playing DotA at the age of 8 and when his family moved from Pakistan to Chicago, Illinois, he began developing a name for himself within the NA Pro scene. His mechanical skill within the game impressed Evil Geniuses' Saahil 'Universe' Arora so much that he pushed EG to sign Sumail. After a rough start, Sumail began posting strong performances.

During the 2015 season, analysts and fans started considering Sumail as one of the best mid-laners in the world and he has been so ever since, except for a short period in 2017 when he switched to the off-lane. He was part of the Evil Genius roster that went on to win The International 2015 and has since finished 3rd in TI6 and TI8.

The majority of his earnings come from his three very high TI finishes and his victory at 2015's Dota 2 Asia Championships. His highest career earnings come from: His victory at TI5 ($1,326,932) , 3rd in TI8 ($536,175), 3rd in TI6 ($436,179) and 1st at 2015 DAC ($256,831).

Not only is he the highest earning Pakistani player of all time, he is also the 3rd highest earning Asian esports player of all time. Sumail is also the youngest player to ever cross $1 million in earnings at just 16 years old.
