#5: EternaLEnVy
Last Week's Ranking: #14
After making one top 5 appearance in 2015 and none in 2016, EternalEnvy now has two in the last three periods! September marks his first full month with his new team, Fnatic, and his 5th overall year in the pro scene (he made his debut with No Tidehunter in September 2012). Fun fact: He's logged over 200 hours on Twitch during the current period.
#4: Gattu
Last Month's Ranking: New to list
Gattu, the first of two newcomers to our rankings, only began posting YouTube videos in March (during patch 7.05). In the following six months, he's racked up 7.5 million video views and 30k subscribers. Gattu posts daily videos and plays low MMR games.
#2 (Tie): Admiral Bulldog
Last Month's Ranking: #2
Admiral Bulldog recently held a Q&A on Alliance's channel. Click here for part 1 and here for part 2. The Q&A is light on memes but packed with tips and interesting info. Fun fact: he and #3 ranked EternaLEnVy were teammates on No Tidehunter during late 2012 and early 2013.
#2 (Tie): SingSing
Last Month's Ranking: #1
SingSing and Admiral Bulldog have been going toe-to-toe for the #1 spot in recent months. This period they tied for #2, as a newcomer swooped in and stole their thunder. SingSing streamed 100 hours of Dota 2 this period, and also dabbled in Resident Evil 5, Divinity II, and Dauntless. He's close to the 200k subscriber mark on YouTube and should easily reach the milestone in October.
