Bio
Jose Leonardo Pandaboo Padilla Hernandez is a well-known Peruvian professional Dota 2 player who has made a name for himself as an excellent support player. His signature heroes are Bane, Abaddon, and Ogre Magi.
Jose Leonardo began his esports career in 2019, playing for the BIG LIONS team. He left the team after six months to join EgoBoys, where he continued his career. Despite improving results in the qualifiers, the team was unable to overcome the barrier of major tournaments, leading Pandaboo to leave in December 2019.
In the first half of 2020, the player moved to three teams: Omega Gaming, Vicious Gaming, and Gorillaz-Pride. He left each team except for Omega Gaming, where he became the captain and successfully led the team to achieve 2nd place in Movistar Liga Pro Gaming Season 6 and 3rd place in Movistar Liga Pro Gaming Final Series. In January 2021, Omega Gaming signed a contract with NoPing e-sports with the same roster.
As captain of NoPing e-sports, Pandaboo led his team to achieve 2nd place in BTS Pro Series Season 7: Americas and Movistar Liga Pro Gaming Season 10, as well as 1st place in BTS Pro Series Season 8: Americas. After this, he joined Thunder Predator, where he was successful and helped his team win BTS Pro Series Season 9: Americas. The tag was then changed to Thunder Awaken, which earned a slot in ESL One Stockholm 2022, where the team finished in 5th-6th place.
After The International 2023, Pandaboo leaves Evil Geniuses and moves to Wawitas Sagazes. Under the tag of this team he made it to ESL One: Kuala Lumpur 2023.
In the winter of 2024, Jose joined BOOM Esports, with which he participated in the Elite League 2024, where he took 13-14th place, not making it out of the group, and also took 5th place in the PGL Wallachia Season 1, losing to Team Spirit in the lower playoff bracket.
