Ceb will play for OG at PGL Arlington Major 2022

Mike Schwartz, Head of Esports at OG

Our captain Misha and our coach Chuvash have once again been deprived of US visas and therefore will not be able to take part in the Arlington Major in person. With a heavy heart, we will once again hold the event without them around us, they both worked very hard to bring the boys to the Major. They will work with the team remotely and instead provide support to the team from home. We will do everything in our power to make them proud of us again. Guess at least our replacement isn't that bad in Dota 2. Once again we asked old Seb to dust off the keyboard and get ready for a new adventure with the youth. As a "retired" OG player, he agreed, of course. Despite the fact that we completed and received visa approval for the entire team in a timely manner, we were unable to provide the necessary to complete the process with Misha and Chu. Unfortunately, this has been an issue that many teams that have replacements at the event have faced due to the current immigration climate. However, we are grateful that Seb is able to re-enter the roster and hopefully lead the team to a Major again. Regardless of the situation, we will once again work hard to make our captain, our coach and of course all of you proud in front of the North American audience. Be sure to mark your calendars for our debut at the Arlington Major starting August 4th. We will need your support in this crazy new venture to try once again to write another page of OG history.

Once again, Misha will not be able to play at a major event with his team. As for Ceb, he already played for OG as a replacement in the fifth position. At that time, the OG team managed to win the championship despite the former player in the roster. And then n0tail acted as a coach. The title of champion of ESL One Stockholm 2022 rightfully went to the OG team after defeating TSM FTX in the grand final with a score of 3:1. Ceb on his Windranger crown helped them with this.
