Mag~

Andrij "Mag~" Chipenko is a Ukrainian Dota 2 coach currently working with Rune Eaters Esports. He previously played professionally under the nickname "Magus," which he later shortened to "Mag~" to avoid confusion with the in-game hero Magnus. Early in his career, Mag~ formed a competitive team with fellow Ukrainian player Deff-, eventually catching the attention of Natus Vincere. The pair joined Goblak, Axypa, and XBOCT to form the organization's first Dota 2 roster. While tournament titles won during his playing career are not available, it is notable that Mag~ and Deff- were ultimately replaced on the Natus Vincere roster by Dendi and Artstyle. Mag~ shares a distinction with renowned physicist Albert Einstein: both individuals reportedly possessed an IQ of 160.
