Danil Reshetnikov (born December 24, 1992) known as Diamondprox, is a Russian League of Legends player was most recently the jungler for Team Apex of the North American League of Legends Championship Series (NA LCS). He has also played for Team Empire, Moscow Five, Gambit Gaming, and Unicorns of Love. Diamondprox hails from Saint Petersburg, Russia. Diamond is one of the world's most known junglers, known for his play on such champions as Lee Sin in Season 2, and innovating the popular Season 3 jungle play of Nasus and Xin Zhao. Danil became known in the high elo ladders of League of Legends end of Season 1 and pre-Season 2.

He started making headway though in the scene when joining Team Empire as their jungler in October 2011 after being invited by friend Edward, who made a large splash at IEM Season VI Qualifiers, winning it to be invited to play at IEM Season VI - Global Challenge Kiev but also due to making a now famed highlight vs SK Gaming, which gave birth to the meme and saying of players shouting "EMPIRE!". [1]

Diamond with the rest of Team Empire were recruited by organization Moscow Five in December 2011. Their first major appearance would be at the IEM Season VI - Global Challenge Kiev on January 19, 2012. It would be here that Moscow 5 would make a name for themselves internationally, as they had little fame prior to IEM Kiev. At the event, Moscow 5 would show a dominant performance, going undefeated in group stage against Dignitas, against All authority, and Sypher. [2] Taking first by going 3-0 in the group stage, Diamond and team would advance to the playoffs where they would take the series 2-0 against SK Gaming. Moving to the finals, Moscow 5 would defeat North American powerhouse Team SoloMid 2-1, dropping their only game of the tournament against Team SoloMid. [3]

On January 31, 2012, Diamond with company would compete in the online Kings of Europe tournament. Once again showing their strength, they would go undefeated in the group stage, defeating SK Gaming, exGBT, and Team Mistral. [4] Advancing to the playoffs, they would go on to defeat French team Sypher 2-1 in the semifinals. In doing so, Moscow 5 would face off against European favorite Counter Logic Gaming EU in the finals, where they would fall 1-2. [5]

On March 10, 2012, Danil with his teammates would attend the IEM Season VI - World Championship in Hanover. Reproducing their results from Kiev, Moscow 5 once again went undefeated in group stage 5-0, defeating SK Gaming, Curse Gaming, Team SoloMid, Sypher, and EHome. [6] Diamond would play a crucial role in the jungle to assist his team and continue their win streak in the playoff bracket, beating Counter Logic Gaming Prime 2-0 in the semifinals and defeating Dignitas 2-0 in the finals to take home first place. [7] This tournament would mark a high point in Moscow 5's history, as they were able to come out of the tournament not only victorious, but were able to do so while not dropping a single game throughout the entire competition.
