The Rise of Destro: A BGMI Esports Legend

  • June 18, 2024 (UPDATED: June 18, 2024 16:39 IST)

In today's BGMI (Battlegrounds Mobile India) esports scene, a few players stand out due to their incredible achievements. One such player is Destro, also known as Ammar Khan. Often called the “Trophy Magnet” in Indian BGMI esports, Destro's journey is nothing short of inspiring.

Early Career

Destro began his esports journey with Team NXT. His career took a significant turn when he joined Team SYNERGE. With SYNERGE, Destro reached the number one spot and represented India in the ESL Mobile Open 2019. This marked the beginning of his rise to fame.

Joining UMUMBA Esports

In January 2020, Destro joined UMUMBA Esports, where he continued to perform exceptionally well. However, after six months, he made a life-changing decision to join Team X SPARK.

The Big Break with Team X SPARK

On August 13, 2020, Team X SPARK revealed their new roster, including Destro, Aditya, 420op, and Evoo. The Indian gaming community was thrilled because each player was known for their aggressive play style. The team performed extraordinarily in every scrim and soon proved they were ready for the big leagues.

When the PMCO Fall Split started, Team X SPARK dominated from the first game and continued their winning streak. On August 31, 2020, they were crowned winners of the PMCO Fall Split 2020, with Destro lifting his first major trophy.

The PUBG Mobile Ban

On September 2, 2020, the Indian Government banned PUBG Mobile due to security concerns, shocking the entire Indian gaming community. While many players chose different career paths, Destro decided to keep practicing, hoping the game would return to India.

The Comeback with SKYLIGHTZ GAMING

In 2021, as the game returned, organizations started looking for top players for the upcoming BGIS Season 1. Destro joined SKYLIGHTZ GAMING in December 2021. By January 16, 2022, SKYLIGHTZ GAMING became champions of BGIS Season 1, adding another trophy to Destro’s collection.

However, shortly after this victory, Destro left SKYLIGHTZ GAMING. The reasons for his departure remain unknown, but fans were soon relieved when he announced his move to CHEMIN ESPORTS. Unfortunately, the team failed to qualify for BMPS Season 1.

Another Setback and a Strong Comeback

After BMPS Season 1, the game was once again suspended by the Indian Government, which was a major setback for Destro and the Indian gaming community. But, like any great story, this one had a comeback.

In early 2023, excitement grew as BGMI was unbanned on May 29, 2023. Fans eagerly awaited Destro's return.

Dominating with GLADIATOR ESPORTS

On June 9, 2023, GLADIATOR ESPORTS announced their new roster, including Destro, Shogun, Justin, and DeltaPG. Everyone knew that Destro, coming back from a setback, would be a force to reckon with.

Destro quickly returned to form and started winning trophies again. He aimed for his fourth major trophy and succeeded by winning BMPS Season 2. After this, he continued his winning streak by securing the BGIS Season 2 trophy as well, making it three consecutive official tournament wins.

A Legend in the Making

From 2019 to 2023, Destro has won numerous tournaments, both official and non-official, making him the most decorated player in the Indian Mobile Esports Circuit. With his consistent performance and numerous achievements, Destro is a potential G.O.A.T (Greatest of All Time) of Indian Mobile Esports.

This is why Destro stands out in the Indian BGMI esports scene, inspiring many with his dedication, skill, and success.
