Satanic

Alan “Satanic” Gallyamov was born on October 13, 2007, in Russia. He is already one of the most accomplished young carry players in professional Dota 2 and one of the main reasons PARIVISION became the strongest team of the 2025–2026 period.

Satanic has already won Tier 1 trophies, finished third and second at consecutive Internationals, and played a five-map TI Grand Final against Yatoro. He is not waiting to become elite. He is already elite.

Early Life

Satanic discovered Dota 2 at the age of seven after being introduced to the game by his older brother. His first calibration reportedly placed him around 3,500 MMR, but his progression was ridiculous. By 2023, he had entered the 10,000 and 11,000 MMR clubs, and in February 2024 he reached first place on the European leaderboard.

He spent part of his childhood in Vietnam and played extensively on Southeast Asian servers before establishing himself in the European high-MMR scene. That background may explain why he looks so comfortable in chaotic games: he can farm like a traditional Eastern European carry, but he is never afraid to start throwing hands.

Professional Career

Satanic’s early professional appearances came in 2023 before he joined Yellow Submarine, Team Spirit’s well-known development project. Team Spirit later promoted him to its active roster during Yatoro’s break in 2024, giving Satanic his first sustained experience against Tier 1 opponents.

In January 2025, he joined PARIVISION on loan from Team Spirit, replacing Crystallis. The move immediately gave him a stable veteran structure containing No[o]ne, DM, 9Class, and Dukalis. Satanic did not need five years to adjust. PARIVISION won ESL One Raleigh 2025 and DreamLeague Season 26, finished second at PGL Wallachia Season 4, and reached third place at both the Esports World Cup 2025 and The International 2025.

PARIVISION and The International 2026

PARIVISION entered 2026 with Puppey as coach and eventually added Noticed to the offlane. The new lineup won DreamLeague Season 29 and the Esports World Cup 2026 before reaching the Grand Final of The International 2026. Their complete 2026 run established them as much more than a talented stack built around a wonderkid. They became the team everyone else was studying.

At TI 2026, Satanic played like the best carry in the tournament for most of the event. PARIVISION defeated Spirit 2-0 in the group stage and 2-1 in the playoffs, while Satanic reached absurd farm timings. He was not simply given space; he converted almost every safe part of the map into a win condition. Before the Grand Final, he openly said that he considered PARIVISION the best team.

The Grand Final ended in heartbreak. PARIVISION forced Spirit to five games, with Satanic playing Ember Spirit, Lifestealer, Shadow Fiend, Lifestealer again, and finally Juggernaut. The decisive game lasted more than 64 minutes before Spirit won the final engagement and completed the 3-2 comeback.

Satanic was one fight away from lifting the Aegis at 18 years old. But this was not the end of his story. It felt more like the first chapter of a rivalry. Yatoro is still the king, but Satanic is unquestionably the prince waiting outside the throne room.

Playing Style

Satanic combines elite farming speed with aggressive late-game decision-making. His strongest heroes include Terrorblade, Morphling, Templar Assassin, Shadow Fiend, Lifestealer, and other cores that reward precise resource management. However, PARIVISION also trusts him with unusual carry picks and flexible drafts that would make many position-one players uncomfortable.

The comparisons with Miracle- and Yatoro are understandable. Like Miracle-, he has the raw mechanical confidence to make impossible situations look playable. Like Yatoro, he has the farming patterns and hero versatility to become the entire win condition without making the draft obvious. He is not their copy, though. Satanic is developing his own identity—and that should scare everyone.

Fun Facts About Satanic

Satanic has spoken respectfully about Yatoro and has used several other nicknames, including King and Butterfly. He is generally soft-spoken in interviews, but his confidence appears when discussing the game: during TI 2026, he said that PARIVISION should improve and “crush everyone.”

He was home-schooled during part of his teenage years to balance education with competitive Dota. By 18, he had already won ESL One Raleigh, DreamLeague Season 26, DreamLeague Season 29, and the Esports World Cup 2026 while finishing third and second at consecutive TIs.
