The Story of Miracle- : The Miracle Boy (Dota 2)

When he was young, Amer "Miracle-" Al-Barqawi was like most kids his age: he played soccer in the streets and spent much of his time out of the house with his friends. One day, he became curious about his older brothers’ interests, and wanted to join them on their lengthy trips to the local net cafes.
This is his story.

[@akshaytayade8215]

Miracle the GOAT

[@NoEphingIdea]

TRUE, can't wait to see his fantastic play at TI over the next couple weeks

[@kami_narisama]

His story is like the ones in anime. Played the game not for achievement, but simply because he loves it and its his passion, joined the competition, but then fails miserably, retreat, finds a great mentor, and then goes back to win it all. Probably one of the greatest story, par on par with Sumail's. Also, he's OP as fuck.

[@ericaugusto758]

Btw both sumail and miracle didnt fail miserably on their rook year at all overall lol

[@kami_narisama]

Eric Augusto Sumail does, actually, on the first few months of EG i think. He played quite horribly until they give him Storm Spirit, which catapulted him to being one of the greatest. And Miracle, that TI6 loss was a very big loss imo, to TNC not to mention.

Definitely miracle is one of the best players of dota 2 no argument about that, but it was mind_control and GH who performed at TI7 they played out of their minds and carried every game to victory from 1 game to another..

[@kappachino3431]

i think it just mind games, if they block and counter gh and MindControl heroes, kuro will pick Matu and Miracle heroes.. and something like that, this is prove.. you can have signature heroes, but playing with high hero pool make your drafter less easier, Matu and Miracle is good too, Miracle didn't let down a single game.. but still the MVP of TI7 is Mind Control..

[@audiamarhendraw9877]

why liquid wins for me, liquid have huge hero pool and make kuro easier for draft like 4 healer draft ? no one in dota history draft like that even puppey and they play as team, not blaming like china player (*based on truesight), and kuro isn't liquid capt, but he is leader of that team not like newbee always panic even draft phase

[@doctorwho2840]

Nah , u should learn more about dota if u said mc and gh are the great factor about liquid winning ti , almost all player agreed miracle delivers and the true mvp at ti while mc just playing mind game , and step out and play superb at their last 2 games but the 1st game - final game miracle and gh are the main factor about their victory . U should watch more how mc cockyness cost loquid lose to ig and move to lower bracket . You should watch back all their match at ti7 and you will notice how good is miracle is
