Pakistan’s 17-year-old Sumail Hassan from Karachi has become world’s third highest earning gamer after he bagged a whooping $2,401,560 in a recent online tournament playing Dota2.

Known as ‘Suma1L’ in the gaming world, Sumail started playing Dota2 when he was seven-year old. He then moved to United States to pursue his passion of becoming a professional e-Sport player.

Soon he rose to fame in the gaming world and just a year later he earned the distinction of being the youngest player to get passed the $1 million mark by helping his team, ‘Evil Geniuses’, win the 2015 Dota2 tournament.

Sumail is considered one of the best Dota2 single player in the gaming community. He has over 140,000 followers on twitter.

Other than gaming, Sumail is an avid fan of wrestling and WWE. However, recently he expressed his disappointment over WWE script writers for failing to come up with convincing story lines.

The young gaming wizard recently helped his parents and family buy a new house in US.
