Danylo Ishutin (Ukrainian: Данило Ішутін born December 30, 1989), more commonly known by the pseudonym Dendi, is a professional Dota 2 mid-lane player for Natus Vincere from Lviv, Ukraine. He is the 44th highest earning professional gamer in the world, having won approximately $732,549.40 USD in prize money from tournaments. He has played on the squad of Natus Vincere (Na'Vi) since 2010 and is a long-time fan-favorite.
In 2009-2015, Dendi started playing professionally with WG. He was a part of the Ukraine squad that finished third in MYM Prime Nations the same year. Only a few months later, WG made it to the grand final of one of the most prestigious tournaments that existed at the time, MYM Prime Defending. When Kingsurf.international merged with WG the next year, he became a full-time member of Ks.int. In late 2008, he joined DTS in its early stages, only to return to Ks.int in March 2009. Only three months later he returned to DTS, helping them secure a second-place victory at ESWC 2010. At the end of the year, Dendi achieved arguably the greatest success in his DotA career by finishing 3rd place in the most stacked tournament at the time, WDC 2010. Dendi joined Natus Vincere (Na`Vi) at the end of 2010 together with ArtStyle.
Dendi began his Dota 2 career with Ukrainian team Na`Vi, rapidly rising to fame after winning The International 2011. After that, Na`Vi continued to win many tournaments in 2011 and 2012, including placing second at The International 2.
At the International 3, Na`Vi became the only Dota 2 team to participate in the grand finals of the tournament three years in a row, falling short to eventual winners Alliance. Na`Vi finished in 8th place at The International 4, marking the first time that Dendi did not play in the grand finals of the tournament.
Dendi was one of three Dota 2 players focused on in the 2014 documentary Free to Play, which covered his story leading up to and including The International 2011. He is also famous on YouTube for his gameplay.
