After a successful 15-year journey in the professional Dota 2 scene, Galvin “Meracle” Kang has announced his retirement. The decision comes after his team, Myth Avenue Gaming, was eliminated from the International 2023 Southeast Asia Qualifiers. Meracle took to social media to express his gratitude to his teammates and fans.
Meracle’s retirement marks the end of an era in Dota 2 esports. Although he may not have been the biggest superstar, he was certainly a fan favorite throughout his career. His most notable achievement was winning BTS Pro Series Season Seven: Southeast Asia with Galaxy Racer in 2021. Despite never winning a major event, Meracle consistently impressed fans with his performances.
As news of his retirement spread, organizations like Complexity Gaming and former teammates such as Adam “343” Erwann Shah and Jaron “monkeys-forever” Clinton wished him well. Many fans also expressed their support for Meracle.
Meracle made his debut in 2012 for First Departure, during the early days of Dota 2. Since then, he has become a respected figure in the community. While it is uncertain if he will remain involved in the scene, fans would be thrilled to see him continue to contribute to the game.
