Topson returns and OG finally play with their new roster

The true OG and TI champion Topias 'Topson' Taavitsainen is back in action! After several months, he was finally able to return to Europe and will now play for his team OG in the upcoming ESL One Birmingham 2020 Online. Topson missed out the most recent online events because he was still in Malaysia with his girlfriend. Due to the travel restrictions surrounding COVID-19 safety measures, he was not able to fly back to his home country Finland and could not play from the region.

As the organisation revealed earlier on Monday, Topson is now back and ready to play in the upcoming ESL One Birgmingham.



Apparently, MidOne is still in Malaysia, but he will participate in the tournament nontheless. In the most recent events, the now-offlaner went back to his signature midlane to take over Topson's empty spot. Since he was still in a different region, he had to play the matches with around 300 ping and at 4 AM in the morning.

Despite some roster issues, OG were nonetheless able to achieve some notable results. They finished second at ESL One Los Angeles 2020 Online and third at OGA Dota PIT 2020 Online: EU/CIS as well as the charity event Gamers without Borders.

The complete roster:





Their first match will be against FlyToMoon later this day. All matches of ESL One Birmingham can be watched at the official Twitch channel of ESL.

Do you think the team is already back to full strength?
