Why they rank here
Kuro Takhasomi, the German-Iranian captain and support known as KuroKy, is one of Dota 2's most enduring and decorated figures. He reached three Grand Finals of The International across his career, finishing runner-up with Natus Vincere in the early years before finally lifting the Aegis as captain of Team Liquid at TI7 in 2017, one of the most complete tournament runs in the game's history. Renowned for his strategic mind and encyclopedic hero knowledge, he holds the record for the most professional Dota 2 matches ever played, a testament to a longevity almost unheard of in esports. His career earnings, above $5M, rank among the highest in the sport thanks to Dota's enormous prize pools. As both a champion and a symbol of the game's competitive depth, KuroKy occupies a revered place in Dota's history.
