“It’s too early to say. My only goal is to win TI, whether this is the team that I can do it with or not we'll find out in the near future”

“Dota has always been a lifestyle that consumes you”















Feero has already started adapting well to the Malaysian culture. Here he is pictured along with the WG.Unity coach Shenal in one of the local hangout spots.











The new Dota 2 season is upon us with many teams and players undergoing massive changes to prepare themselves for the long road ahead. The International 2018 will be the ultimate goal for all of these teams as they seek to cement their legacy.One star who’s hoping the crowd’s backing will help him to do that is Feras "" Hroob, the Jordanian pubstar. Best known for his performances inand, the talented youngster will be looking to emulate the success that his former Jordanian teammates Yazied "" Jaradat and Amer "-" Al-Barqawi have managed to find.Joining him in Teamis the Russian veteran Khaled "" El-Khabbash and three of SEA’s finest in Galvin "" Kang Jian Wen, Kim "" Tae-sung, and Kenneth "" Coloma.On paper, this is one of the strongest rosters in the SEA region along with Fnatic and TNC Gaming. We spoke to Feero to find out more about his new home, reasons for leaving to Malaysia and his plans withFeero was introduced to video games at a very young age.His first tryst with Dota came through his sister, a famous Dota streamer, Ephey aka Mira . “In addition to his sister, Feero’s younger brother is at the 4k MMR mark as well. We were quite curious about what dinner and other family activities were like in a Dota oriented household like his.Oddly enough, Feero’s gaming career could have gone in a completely different direction if it wasn’t for his sister and his friends.He admits that he wasn’t really that good initiallyBut after a while, his hard work and constant practice started to pay offAmong other sources of inspiration, the old-school YouTube montage videos served as motivation for Feero to constantly improve himself.He then took a brief hiatus so that he could focus on school.His return to Dota was sparked courtesy his younger brother who had downloaded Dota 2 on his laptop and obliged to Feero’s request one day to let him play for a little while.He adds thatHis story of how he became a pro player is inspiring and frankly quite awesome,Although he played for a couple of Jordanian teams alongside Miracle and Yapzor, his first serious foray into the competitive scene was with B)ears, a European team comprised of Fata, Yapzor, 343 (aka ADAM) Forev and himself. While their performances in the European Qualifiers of the Kiev Major and DAC 2017 surpassed all expectations, they didn’t qualify to either LAN. They disbanded soon after.Feero asserts thatFeero’s performances in the Complexity roster particularly in the TI7 NA Qualifiers would earn him a lot of praise and attention in the Dota 2 community.His playstyle is on some level comparable to that of Ana or Miracle, given his flexibility to oscillate between the mid and carry role based on his team’s composition. However, after a few games with the Complexity roster, he began to stick to the Mid role exclusively. Commenting on this he said,However, after his team didn’t end up qualifying for TI7 he decided to take a break from competitive play.He decided to take the offer and moved to South East Asia.Elaborating on his willingness to go beyond borders for Dota he added,On being asked about the differences in ranked games in the three servers, he saysWhile Feero’s ambitions are lofty, his expectations seem grounded when asked about his short term and long term goals with WG.Unity.He says.His current team, a Malaysian organization will be quite a diverse roster with a Singaporean Carry (Meracle), a Jordanian Mid (Feero), a South Korean Offlaner (Velo), a Russian-Filipino support duo (SQreen-Flysolo) with a Sri Lankan Coach (Shenal). On being questioned on whether this will give them some unique advantages/challenges, Feero says thatHowever Feero’s WG.Unity is not the only international roster setting up shores in the SEA region. Fnatic have also announced quite a strong roster with three international stars (EE, Xcalibur and PLD) joining their squad . The competitive scene in the SEA region will be fierce and very interesting with teams like TNC Gaming, the returning TI6 MVP squad as well as Fire Dragoon all bringing in International experience to the SEA region.When asked about who he thinks will be their toughest competitors, Feero amusingly says,The region will have a really good shot at proving themselves on the grand stage as a result of Valve’s new major-minor system.This is a statement that many a pro player has echoed. The esports scene isn’t as alluring as it seems from the fans’ point of view. It requires a lot of practice, dedication and grinding which may result in mental burn outs. Pro players need an outlet to relax. For Feero, it’s usually watching shows, reading or hanging out with friends that do the trick. “Interestingly enough, he hasn’t jumped aboard the Game of Thrones bandwagon.But he revealed that he is quite a big fan of Harry Potter,So we asked him to imagine himself as the sorting hat. We gave him a few of his ex-teammates and friends’ names and asked him to sort them.Meracle (Teammate) –Velo (Teammate) –Sqreen (Teammate) –Flysolo (Teammate) –Shenal (His Coach) –ADAM aka 343(Ex-Teammate from B)ears) – “Swindlemelonz (Ex-Teammate from Complexity) -Demon (Ex-Teammate from Complexity) –Ephey (His Sister, Twitch Streamer) –Moo (Ex-Teammate from Complexity) –Yapzor (Ex-Teammate from B)ears) –It is quite a big transition for Feero traveling all the way to Malaysia to pursue his dream to win The International. Naturally, some amount of culture shock is to be expected, but Feero surprisingly says that he isn’t bothered in the slightest about it.For now, Feero remains the embodiment of a humble yet ambitious pro Dota player that’s aiming for the stars. When asked for a message for his fans, here’s what he had to say.This is just Feero’s second season and he is showing maturity well beyond his age. He is staying grounded and recognizes that there is still a lot of work that WG Unity need to put in as a squad and is clear about the personal progress that he needs to make. This is not the end of the Feero story, rather, this is just the beginning. We can’t tell you whether Feero will write an epilogue to that by winning the International but we can tell you that the man certainly is dauntless, that much is clear.
