Alliance uniforms
Alliance this year have finally cemented their status as a legendary team that has lost all their former glory. The year started for s4 and its teammates with a 5th-6th place finish at BetBoom Universe: Episode I - Comics Zone. The team was one step away from promotion at DPC WEU 2023 Tour 1: Division II, finishing in third place and earning $15,000. 9th-16th place in the Pinnacle Cup: Malta Vibes #1 provided the Swedish club with $1,000 in prize money. Fourth place at the DPC WEU 2023 Tour 2: Division II also earned $11,000. Performances at Pinnacle Cup: Malta Vibes #2 and DPC WEU 2023 Tour 3: Division II ended in complete failure for Alliance. In the third round of the DPC they finished in seventh place and left the ranking season.
The last professional championship for Alliance at the moment was BetBoom Dacha - Online Stage, the online qualification for BetBoom Dacha, the LAN championship to be held in Yerevan, Armenia. In the Play-In stage, Alliance team lost their first match in the Top Grid against Luna Galaxy. In the Decider stage of the tournament, s4 made it to the Decider stage by defeating Virtus.pro and the aforementioned Luna Galaxy 2:1. But there Alliance failed to get their wish. First the Swedes Ledge beat Nemiga Gaming 0:2 and fell into the losers' net, and then a defeat by Level UP on two maps in a row ended their participation in the qualifiers at BetBoom Dacha.

OG uniforms

But OG was able to double that amount thanks to a fifth place finish at DreamLeague Season 19. The only Major tournament of the DPC season, in which Yuragi and his team participated, was quite average. The 5th-6th place at ESL One Berlin Major 2023 helped them earn an additional $25,000. The third round of the DPC season did not make the fans of the famous club happy again, as at the DPC WEU 2023 Tour 3: Division I OG again took the fifth place. The 13th-14th place in DreamLeague Season 20 is also difficult to call a good result.
