10 Richest Video Gamers In The World Today
4. Amer "Miracle" Al-Barkawi
Net worth: $3.7 million
Amer al-Barkawi - or "Miracle" - won six major trophies in a two year period between 2015 and 2017 and went on to become one of the most revered solo mid players in DOTA history. Only 17 years of age when this miraculous run began, he is one of the youngest high-earners on the list, barely being old enough to finish college. Priorities though, right?
Currently playing for Team Nigma, he has been a winner of some of the biggest trophies in the game’s history, including the International 2017 competition that had, as mentioned before, a prize pool of a whopping $10 million US dollars. His exploits as a player on his own have earned him some prestigious awards such as the Esports Industry Award for PC player of the year in 2017, a highly coveted award that few DOTA players have had the pleasure of attaining.
Continuing to be a huge presence in the MOBA esports world, he is continuing his run with his Team Nigma into the 2020s, maintaining his reputation as one of the best solo mid players in the world.
