10 Richest Video Gamers In The World Today

5. Ivan "MinD_ContRoL" Ivanov

Net worth: $3.5 million

Ivan Ivanov, a Bulgarian DOTA 2 legend who turned pro in 2014, is an offlaner for Team Nigma and has one of the best reputations in the world for his consistency and performance. Having finished twenty-five times in first place out of 60 competitions, he has proven to be one of the greatest and most successful video game players in the history of the medium.

Although he fell into trouble for some anti-Russian comments he made during a stream in 2018, he has remained a fan favourite for many years, proving a loyal player and someone who has always performed at the top level.

Going by the name MinD_ContRol, he has played and won in some of the biggest tournaments in DOTA history, including the famous International 2017 event. His team, taking home the $10 million pound prize draw that year, also finished fourth place in 2018, which awarded them a nice little bonus of $1.7 million pounds. Not too shabby.
