Nigma Galaxy Hopes for Miracle After The International 2025 Qualification

Nigma Galaxy’s Dota 2 team is reportedly set to bring back legendary player Amer “Miracle” Al-Barkawi, following their success in securing a spot at The International 2025, which will be held in Germany.

The TI 2025 ticket was snatched as they showed an impressive play against the European giant, OG, in the final of the TI 2025 WEU Qualifiers Lower Bracket last night. In a tough best-of-three series, the team led by Kuro “KuroKy” Salehi won the decisive game in about 44 minutes, capitalizing on their opponent’s mistakes.

Alongside this, news has surfaced about Miracle, who has been on a break from competitive Dota since last April. And according to several Dota esports professionals, the Jordanian veteran might return as a stand-in, with veteran Roman “RAMZES666” Kushnarev mentioned this possibility during his recent livestream.

However, some viewers warn that recruiting Miracle for TI will be tricky. They point out he has been away from competition for a long time and most likely need significant game time to adapt to the new meta.

This result marks the first time Nigma Galaxy has qualified for the premier tournament since the team was founded in 2019. However, key players on the squad like KuroKy, Miracle, Maroun “GH” Merhej, and Sumail “SumaiL” Hassan have experienced the fiery TI competition in past seasons.
