Sumail "SumaiL" Hassan is a familiar Dota 2 player name. He’s a professional player with tons of experience, who has been a part of Nigma Galaxy since May 2022. However, everything is about to change, as SumaiL has officially left Nigma Galaxy as of May 8, 2023.
Most recently, he played for Team Aster at ESL One Berlin Major 2023, where he made it to the top 8 despite the language barrier. SumaiL's impressive performance in the tournament certainly caught the attention of many Dota 2 fans, wondering where he would go next.
Then an official announcement from Nigma Galaxy surfaced, announcing SumaiL's exit from their roster. Many were shocked and wondered what led to such a sudden decision.
SumaiL himself has been a key player for Nigma Galaxy in recent seasons. His performance with Team Aster at ESL One Berlin Major 2023 more or less showed that he still has what it takes to compete at the highest level.
According to Team Aster's official Weibo account, SumaiL will play for the team until The International 2023 (TI12), which is scheduled for later this year. The tweet also mentioned that Nigma Galaxy and SumaiL are in talks regarding his future with the organization.
SumaiL's departure from Nigma Galaxy leaves the Dota 2 community looking forward to his play in the future. There is a possibility that he will remain in China after TI12. But one thing is for sure, SumaiL's outstanding performance at Team Aster recently has opened up a huge opportunity for him.
