Biography

The history of Miracle- as a player began with the multiplayer mode Defense of the Ancients , he started playing from the age of 5-6. Amer asked his mother to go with his older brother to a computer club, and he taught him the basics. Then Miracle- moved to Dota 2, calibrated to 5200 solo rating. In Dota 2, he was one of the best players in Ladder matches, that is, he played not in competitive Dota, but in ranked matches. Miracle's debut as a professional took place in the Balkan Bears team, where Amer joined in early 2015, but this team did not achieve success, and after 4 months he had to leave the team. Miracle- started to play a lot, and he already thought that he would never get into the pro scene.

In July 2015, Amer reached the 8000 single rating bar, thus becoming the second in this race, he was second only to Alivi "w33" Omar, which did not go unnoticed by professional teams, and a month later Johann "BigDaddyN0tail" Sandstein after The International 5 contacted Amer and other players, and so the (monkey) Business team was created. At the end of October, (monkey) Business changed its name to OG, while retaining its old roster, and along with Andreas "Cr1t-" Nielsen, Johann "BigDaddyN0tail" Sandstein, Tal "Fly" Izik (OG captain) and David "MoonMeander" Tan a few weeks later, Miracle- becomes the champion of the Frankfurt Major , in March 2016 takes 7-8th place at the Shanghai Major and in June 2016 wins the Manila Major, and OG become two-time Valve tournament champions.

The start of the 2016-2017 season did not work out for Miracle: Team Liquid qualified only for DreamLeague Season 6 in the fall of 2016, and in this roster Amer missed the Major for the first time, losing qualifications for the Boston Major for the second slot in the tournament to Virtus.Pro.
