Player tOfu from from Gaimin Gladiators Dota 2 | ID: 7111

Erik tOfu Engel is a professional Dota 2 player who plays the fourth position.

He began his esports career in League of Legends. From 2012, tOfu played for German teams. In September, he took third place at the ESL Pro Series Germany Winter Season 2012 Finals and was considered a promising player, but he never achieved significant success, although he occasionally placed in local championships.

After 2013, the player disappeared from the professional scene only to return six years later - but in Dota 2. tOfu began his path with little-known German teams, and since May 2020, he has been playing for EURONICS Gaming. The player's main achievement was reaching the final of ACL Masters #2, where his individual skill was noticed, and in early 2021, Erik joined Hellbear Smashers.

Together with Ace and Gilgir, tOfu immediately won three consecutive tournaments - two seasons of Snow Sweet Snow and DreamLeague Season 14 EU DPC: Lower Division. However, Hellbear Smashers failed to establish themselves in the upper league of Western Europe, losing all seven matches and dropping out immediately. After failing to qualify for The International 2021, the team reached the final of Dota 2 Champions League Season 2 but then ended their performance.

Before the Dota Pro Circuit 2021/22 season, tOfu transferred to a new team, Team Tickles, with Ace. The team earned a slot in the upper division with ViKin.gg and finished their debut season in second place, then won at DreamLeague Season 16 DPC WEU: Regional Finals.

In February 2022, tOfu's squad was signed with the organization Gaimin Gladiators. Under the new tag, tOfu and his teammates once again took second place in the DPC league and then made it to the top 4 of the major tournament, ESL One Stockholm 2022. That season, the team qualified for The International 2022, where they took 7-8th place.

In the 2022/2023 season, after the change of mider, Eric and his team won the Lima Major 2023, Berlin Major 2023, Bali Major 2023 , as well as the 19th and 20th seasons of the Dreamleague.
