Dota 2: Topson returns, teams up with Natsumi, skem in revamped OG

Filipino Dota 2 professional players John Anthony “Natsumi” Vargas and Andrei “skem” Ong will be teaming up with Finnish star and two-time The International (TI) champion Topias “Topson” Taavitsainen, who is returning to OG.

Topson, set for an OG comeback, is returning to where he claimed his two TI titles after playing for LGD in the recent TI 2026.

Meanwhile, it is a new chapter for Natsumi and skem, after parting ways with former OG teammates Erin Jasper “Yopaj” Ferrer, Polo “Raven” Fausto, and Timothy “TIMS” Randrup.

OG had banked on an all-Filipino five-man lineup to continue its storied legacy, but the venture was somewhat unsuccessful, with the squad finishing 14th-15th at the recent TI.

As previously announced by the squad, this new-look OG will debut in the BLAST Slam VIII, beginning September 29.
