Jaron "monkeys-forever" Clinton is an American player who last played for TiltedBoys.

Biography[edit]

Jason started playing DotA from version 5.64b and then switched to Dota 2 in September 2011. He is based in Pennsylvania, and used to play the 1/2 roles, but now frequently plays as an offlaner.

He has played in several North American teams across his career, and was a stand-in for Complexity Gaming during the Boston Major 2016, before becoming a permanent member of the squad. He was one of the founding members of 4 Zoomers, although he was removed from the team ahead of the new Dota Pro Circuit in 2021. Here, he joined simply TOOBASED, before making the jump to Arkosh Gaming. This team's gimmick was that all the players were depicted as demonic figures, but anonymous; monkeys-forever played under the poorly-disguised identity of Monkey. He later played for Fart Studios and TiltedBoys in the final Tours of the Dota Pro Circuit throughout 2023.

Jaron is also a regular streamer on Twitch whenever he is not in a team.
