These Are the 10 Highest-Paid Professional Gamers

6Clement ‘Puppey’ Ivanov – $667.332.14

On #6 we have Puppey, one of the most prolific captains in DotA.
His good knowledge of the English language allowed Clement Ivanov to play in many of the best European teams.

As many other gamers, he started with pub games and, in the beginning of summer 2007, he started his professional career for the Xero Skill (XsK) team.
XsK’s first big victory happened on ESL Major Series where they placed 3rd and Puppey started to earn recognition.

Alongside Dendi and Artstyle, Puppey made his first steps into the Dota2 competitive scene with Natus Vincere, as they competed in The International 2011 where they went undefeated throughout the whole tournament, winning the $1 million grand prize.

After Artstyle’s departure from the team in October 2011, Ivanov became Natus Vincere’s Captain and was released from Na’Vi on August 20, 2014.
