There’s been rumors and speculation around OG fielding a second roster for months, and now thanks to a last-minute registration, we might have the answer with Topias “Topson” Taavitsainen and Volodymyr " No[o]ne-" Minenko joining a roster called Old G.
The signing was first spotted by keen-eyed journalistArseny Kuzminskyon theDota Pro Circuit Registration pageon Wednesday, Dec. 7, confirming hisearlier reports.
The pair of Topson and Noone will apparently join Johan “N0tail” Sundstein as the team unveils its second roster. Previously, multiple rumors about the OG second roster had surfaced with several angles.
Sources talking to Esports.gg had suggested that the organization was interested in a possible South American roster. The organization had reportedly made moves to increase its presence in Peru after a highly successful fan event. Additionally, until recently it was unknown whether this would be a second main roster, or an OG.Seed style project. At the time of writing, no other members of the new OG, Old G team are confirmed.
Topson’s return to OG?
Now the two-time TI winner is potentially back with the roster where he won most of his accolades. Last month, the Finn moved back to Europe, after moving to Malaysia at the start of 2022. He looks primed to continue right where he left off in competitive Dota 2.
