Clinton Loomis (born February 19, 1988 in Lancaster, California), more commonly known as Fear, is an American professional Dota 2 player and coach. With a career spanning a decade, Fear is one of the oldest Dota players in the scene. He was featured alongside Danil "Dendi" Ishutin and Benedict Lim "hyhy" Han Long in the documentary Free to Play. With Evil Geniuses, he has won over a million dollars as the winners of The International 2015.
Fear's first team was called PluG Pullers Inc., and they were picked up by CompLexity Gaming in 2006. After the compLexity Dota division was shut down in 2007, Fear reformed PluG Pullers, but left the team when he was asked to join Meet Your Makers. Fear was a member of MYM for a year, and he left the team a few weeks before the organization went bankrupt.
His next stop was Evil Geniuses, which lasted from March to December 2009 before the Dota division was disbanded. Fear then joined a star-studded Blight.int team, which changed sponsors before disbanding over salary issues. This led to a period of inactivity for Fear, as real-life commitments limited his ability to play competitively.
Fear's team Online Kingdom.Nirvana.int was one of the teams invited to The International 2011, where after an impressive 3-0 record in their group, finished a respectable 7th-8th place, the team taking home $25,000.
A few months after The International, Fear returned to Evil Geniuses, where he has been ever since.
In January 2014, Fear and EG teammate Saahil "UNiVeRsE" Arora were seen as stand-ins for the team S A D B O Y S, consisting of Artour "Arteezy" Babaev, Peter "ppd" Dager, and Ludwig "zai" Wåhlberg. With an impressive 16-2 record in their 3 weeks of playing together, the team was picked up by Evil Geniuses as the new Dota team. After receiving an invite to The International 2014, Fear's arm problems became too much to handle, and he became the team's coach while Mason "mason" Venne joined the team in Fear's place in the "carry" position. Despite the setback, EG managed to finish 3rd place.
