Professional Dota 2 player Tommy "Taiga" Le commented on his former team OG, which will perform at Riyadh Masters 2024, exclusively for Telecomasia.net.
I think OG can do well at Riyadh Masters 2024. They are one of the teams who learn lot from their defeats, draws conclusions and start working even harder. Of course, it's harder for them to do that work because of the language barrier. Maybe sometimes it breaks their chemistry. But I'm sure Ceb will take things into his own hands and boost their morale if there are problems.

The 25-year-old Norwegian also compared the performances of former OG first position player Artem "Yuragi" Golubiev and current lineup carry Enzo "Timado" Gianoli.
I believe that Yuragi gave and received good calls in OG, but I think Timado looks better in terms of actions on the map right now.

On January 20, 2024, OG officially announced the departure of Yuragi, who has been on the pro scene for practically 3 years with them (since November 21, 2021). Streamer Alexander “Nix” Levin stated that Enzo "Timado" Gianoli would be the new member of the squad. The rumors were confirmed at DreamLeague Season 22, where the team finished in 6th place. Together with Gianoli, the team took fourth place at ESL One Birmingham 2024 and second place at FISSURE Universe: Episode 2.
OG did not show good results at the other championships. The team will also miss The International 2024. The team lost to NaVi Junior in the closed qualifiers for Western Europe.
The next tournament for OG is Riyadh Masters 2024. The team will start from the group stage of the championship.
The Riyadh Masters 2024 Dota 2 Championship is a LAN tournament that will take place between July 4 and July 21 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The event will see 20 teams battle it out for a prize pool of five million dollars.
