The Story of Arteezy: The "A-God" (Dota 2)

Artour “Arteezy” Babaev was born on July 1st, 1996 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, but he grew up in Vancouver, Canada. Now a successful pro and a controversial community personality, Arteezy is making his mark as one of the most influential Dota players in the pro scene today. Despite being only 21 years old and starting his pro career at 16, Arteezy has already amassed quite the career for himself, full of ups, down and rage.
This is his story.

[@enterderpmode3934]

Arteezy is too good of a player not to win a TI before he retires. Hopefully he wins it this year, memes and stream moments aside, he is one of the most hardworking players in the scene, and this year is one of his best chances with an EG team that is built to win it all this year.

[@hypatia6833]

Enter Derp Mode our profiles pics are almost the same boy

[@enterderpmode3934]

[@therrogue1193]

Enter Derp Mode he has the skill to earn it but not the attitude. If he overcome his ego prob maybe he could win

High quality stream, i see.

[@bball1498]

how was LGD a lesser team? TI 6 LGD consist Agressif, Xiao8, Banana, MMY and Maybe. A team filled with Chinese superstars.

[@friziderledeni1262]

BlinkHex they arent superstar anymore they were in 2012 13 14 but they got old same ass alliance only s4 stayed superstar

[@bball1498]

lol you cant be more wrong. Maybe is currently playing for LGD at TI 7, Agressif placed second place at TI 5 and Xiao8 placed 3rd at TI 5. Maybe they are not superstars now, but the point is the time frame this video reference then during the TI 6 era, where they were not a lesser team compare to Alliance. Where they fell off relevance right after TI 3.

[@b-m9480]

BlinkHex Both LGD teams rn are doing rly well at ti7

[@jldotaau8894]

coz LGD with visa issues didnt have their full squad at TI

I really wanna see RTZ win a Ti. Probably the carry player I look up to the most, he is so talented and I just love the way he plays carry. He basically has to win ti at some point

[@rentvanmcu7310]

Nope, arteezy is just a farmer but in clash, he's wacked, unlike ana ,ana is a carry who really do anything for the team and his gold comes from killing the enemy heroes not buy all farming creeps

[@leimarottos9970]

legends has it that rteezy still farming in jungle

[@Em4il]

I really don't like RTZ for his rages in past ... but i totally respect him as "manta god"

[@malwi8700]

for the boys

[@2009shumy]

Good luck Artour, altho this year's TI is the toughest one.

[@ajbalancedbreakfast8368]

Memes aside, Arteezy is one of my favorite players but I feel like he plays very risky. When he pulls it off, it shows that he's a very competent carry but he often falls short by being too aggressive. Nevertheless, I'm a huge EG fan so I hope he finally can claim TI this year :D

[@jisoomylove6479]

I hate RTZ because of his attitude and his fanbase but i can't really deny that he's one of the most talented player to ever play dota his illusion micro mantadodges or armlet toggling is on another level.

[@dylanadair8144]

He has a great attitude towards the game. he doesn't care what anyone thinks, hes going to do what makes him happy which is grind dota

[@fml_113maulana6]

Dude pro player trash talk, that its fun, not like a kids at sea server

[@idontmakeoc3942]

cmonBruh, rtz has one of the best attitudes among dota players, maybe even among LoL+Dota players (because I watch LoL as well.) And I've seen bandwagon fans of rtz but whatever, they aren't real fan.

[@farid5361]

If u dont have arteezy attitude, i think u dont really enjoy playing dota

Jisoo my love if u hate pro player because of their fanbase ooh boi u will definitely hate Miracle since his fanbase is full of cancer
