Bio
XinQ - professional Dota 2 player. Champion of WePlay AniMajor. His signature hero is Mirana.
He started his esports career in 2015, playing as a carry for TongFu.WanZhou and TongFu. During his time with the team, his most significant achievement was winning gold at the Electronic Sports China Cup 2015. After that, he continued his career with ForTheDream, but the team struggled to perform well in the Chinese qualifiers for major tournaments while XinQ was on their roster. In 2018, our hero joined Team Serenity, where he played in the offlane position. The team successfully qualified for The International 2018, but they finished in 9th-12th place at the tournament. During the 2018-2019 season, XinQ played for Team Serenity for a while before joining EHOME in January 2019.
In his new team, our hero transitioned to the fourth position, which immediately reflected in their results - they won silver at OGA Dota PIT Minor 2019 and finished in 5th-6th place at StarLadder ImbaTV Dota 2 Minor Season 2. Despite not making it to The International 2019, XinQ, Faith_bian, and y' retained their spots in the team. The new season started off on a rough note for the team until the "era of online tournaments" began. That's when they started achieving prize-winning placements and championships. PSG.LGD management noticed their performance and, in addition to Ame, signed NothingToSay, Faith_bian, XinQ, y', and xiao8.
With the updated roster, they immediately won three tournaments in a row. When the new DPC season started in 2021, many analysts predicted that LGD would be the top team in their region. They performed well in the first DPC cycle (4th place in Dota Pro Circuit 2021: Season 1 - China Upper Division and 3rd place in ONE Esports Singapore Major 2021), and in the second cycle, they played excellently (2nd place in Dota Pro Circuit 2021: Season 2 - China Upper Division and 1st place in WePlay AniMajor). After the Major, the players returned home, participated in a couple of tournaments, and then came to Romania for boot camp. In Europe, PSG.LGD showed everyone who the main contender for the Aegis was, finishing in 1st and 2nd place in OGA Dota PIT Invitational and ESL One Fall 2021, respectively, with their coach acting as a stand-in mid player.
XinQ, along with PSG.LGD, were the top favorites for The International 2021, but sensationally lost to Team Spirit 2:3, having made a 0:2 comeback. His team then earned $5,202,400.
In 2022, XinQ plays one more season for PSG.LGD are ranked 1st at Riyadh Masters 2022, 2nd at PGL: Arlington Major 2022 and 5th-6th at The International 2022. It was after TI11, that XinQ announced that he is suspending his career as a professional player.
XinQ returns to the pro scene in 2023, first he goes for Xtreme Gaming at Riyadh Masters 2023 (15th-16th place), 2nd place at qualifying for The International 2023. He was also part of the champion Chinese national team at the 2022 Asian Games.
At the end of 2023 XinQ participates in the ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023 tournament as a member of Azure Ray, where he takes 1st place. After the success in Malaysia, the player is signed by Xtreme Gaming.
