OneJey

Ivan "OneJey" Zhivitsky is a Belarusian professional Dota 2 support and one of the brightest young talents to rise out of the Eastern European scene. Born in 2004, he's among the younger players competing at a high level, and he made his name as a ladder prodigy before translating that raw skill into tier-1 competition.

An aggressive, playmaking support, OneJey pairs the fearless instincts of a top MMR grinder with the versatility to slot into a wide range of rosters—a profile that's already taken him from Belarusian amateur leagues to a spot on one of the CIS scene's most iconic organizations.

Early Career

OneJey began his competitive journey in March 2022 with Team Domino, winning the Belarusian Esports League alongside early teammates like kur0patbI4 and miyaoo. He quickly graduated to Zorka, the youth squad of Nemiga Gaming, where he flashed his potential—nearly breaking into the DPC League and taking a 5th–6th finish at European Pro League Season 2.

He made his DPC League debut in 2023 with StoRm before entering a period of roaming between teams, steadily accumulating experience across the EEU circuit.

Rise to Prominence

What set OneJey apart early was the latter. He reached 9,000 MMR as a teenager and became a well-known name near the top of the Eastern European rankings—the kind of individual skill that gets a young player noticed fast.

That reputation earned him a marquee opportunity in July 2024, when Nigma Galaxy brought him in as a stand-in for the Clavision Snow Ruyi Invitational, filling in for legends KuroKy and Miracle and helping the team to a third-place finish—a striking result for a player still in the early stages of his career.

The Virtus.pro Breakthrough

OneJey's big step-up came in March 2025, when he joined Virtus. Pro—comfortably the most storied organization of his career and his entry point into tier-1 Dota.

The new lineup made an immediate impact, earning a direct invite to FISSURE Special, where they finished 2nd, and following up with a 4th-place run at DreamLeague Season 25, the best result of OneJey's career to date. The stint gave the young support a genuine platform against the world's best, proving his ladder pedigree could carry over to the biggest stages.

Playstyle and Reputation

OneJey is an aggressive, high-impact support whose game is built on the same fearless instincts that fuel his ranked climbing.

Key strengths include:

– Elite ladder pedigree and individual mechanical skill

– Aggressive, playmaking support style

– Versatility across many rosters and both support positions

– A high ceiling and room to grow given his age

Analysts see him as one of the more promising young support talents in Eastern Europe — a player whose best years are very likely still ahead of him.
