3. Zheng "MidOne" Yeik Nai (RM2,769,502)
Yeik "MidOne" Nai Zheng, 21, is the youngest one on the list. Even though he entered the professional scene just over two years ago, he is already been hailed as one of the best 'Dota' players in the world. For a brief period, he was the highest-ranked player in the world based on 'Dota's matchmaking rating (MMR).
MidOne began his professional 'Dota' career in December 2015 with Fnatic and helped them to fourth place in The International 2016. He became the first Malaysian 'Dota 2' player to move to Europe when he joined Team Secret in 2016.
MidOne and his current team, Team Secret, kicked off 2018 in the best possible manner as they won their first tournament of the year, Captain Draft 4.0. Starting the year off by winning USD21,600.00 (RM86,400) isn't too bad, eh?
Currently, MidOne plays the mid role for Team Secret.

2. Wong "ChuaN" Hock Chuan (RM2,961,635)
If you have been a follower of 'Dota' and 'Dota 2' in the early days, you would definitely know this man. Wong "ChuaN" Hock Chuan picked up 'Dota' as a career way back in 2009 (nine years ago!) when he had to quit playing basketball due to an injury.
ChuaN decided to move to China in 2010 after he received an offer to play 'Dota' professionally with a salary. A year later, ChuaN was approached to join LGD through Jiang "YYF" Cen, whom he described as a "big brother". Later that year, ChuaN moved to Invictus Gaming with three other teammates from LGD.
ChuaN became the first and, at the time of writing, only Malaysian to win The International a.k.a. the most prestigious 'Dota' tournament in the world in 2012 with Invictus Gaming.
Despite being an inactive player since the end of 2016, ChuaN remains the second highest-earning Malaysian gamer. No matter what ChuaN decides to do in the future, he will always remain a legend in the 'Dota' scene forever.

1. Chai "MuShi" Yee Fung (RM3,308,466)
Mushi, Mushi, Mushi. Today, Chai "Mushi" Yee Fung is one of the most respectable and well-known players in the entire 'Dota' scene. Mushi has over 280,000 fans on Facebook and is a role model for many gamers and aspiring pros.
However, pursuing a career in 'Dota' wasn't easy for Mushi as his parents believed that he should've gotten a proper job instead of playing video games for a living. At one point, Mushi’s mother even locked him out of the house for a few hours because he went to play 'Dota' at a cyber cafe.
"Give me one more year, if I fail, I will find a job," said Mushi to his parents. His parents agreed to his terms, and needless to say, that turned out well for Mushi.
