Additionally, OG announced that its position-three player Jesse "JerAx" Vainikka will be spending his days off the stage. JerAx has officially retired from professional Dota 2 and will not be on the front line of OG's active roster. He hasn't left the organization, but he will be supporting from the sideli

In some player's eyes, the current Black Cleaver is a shadow of what the original item once was. In early season 3, Black Cleaver has armor penetration as a base stat and shreds past 40 armor on full sta

As one of the most talented bot laners in the game, LokeN returned to his home of JD Gaming after a short stint with Top Esports. In his first split back, LokeN and his teammates defeated the very same Top Esports in China’s League of Legends Pro League Spring Finals, winning JD Gaming their first title as an organization. Paired with support Zuo "LvMao" Ming-Hao, JD Gaming’s strong bot lane makes them one of the favorites to win it all in 2

Kanavi may be the best jungler the LPL has ever sent to the World Championship. The Korean import fully embodies the patented LPL aggression with his champion pool (Lee Sin, Nidalee, Graves) and mechanics. He consistently finds advantages against enemy junglers through optimal pathing, counter-jungling, and ganking. He seems to know exactly when to start fights and how to set up his team for success. He spent the year outplaying some of the best junglers in the world, like Tian and Karsa, and he looks to do the same at Wor

For old school League players , this entry should come as no surprise. Unlike the support items today, all three of these items give passive gold over time. They were initially for supports, but mostly every lane started buying them. Because of the passive or the item is in the build tree for another item, they give tons of gold with no coun

Despite launching back in 2009, Riot Games' ground-breaking moba Game Heroes has remained a force in the gaming scene, particularly for online skirmishes and esports. In League of Legends , players clash in fun PvP fights with four other companions amidst fantasy backdr

With the dominant team gone, teams are going to have to worry less. What made OG strong was their unpredictability. Other teams have calm and collected players. Some have good social connections and positive environments. And some even have insane co-ordinated teamwork, but rarely do we see teams that blow away everyone time after time. OG had a thing for making the impossible possible and that was unique on its own, so with that gone, professional Dota 2 will frankly be more of a boresome eSport to watch. Watch the team's race to get the hero or farm until they get their item build, repeat for every ma

Stixxay is aware of the negative sentiment surrounding his team, even if he's not in agreement with it. "I just don't think it's true," Stixxay said of the public's view. "I don’t think we’re a 10th place team, so last split was really disappointing for us. It just put a sour taste in everyone’s mouth... I think we had a really bad split and we worked a lot in the offseason to fix a lot of those thin

While overall more fleshed out, this version wipes out the more distant seige row, distilling the focus to Melee and Ranged lines. In a multi-tiered card battle not unlike Magic the Gathering , players throw down a card each turn from a ten-card hard, choosing from different offensives and special abilities to inflict upon the opposite s

This isn’t always the case, unfortunately, as this meme showcases the severe need some players have to crowd the lonely top laner when they’re happily working a lane on their own. League of Legends is a team-based game, but sometimes it’s okay to leave your teammates al

In his first split as a part of Gen.G, BDD was one of the best performing mid laners in the LCK, with a 6.2 KDA (kill/death/assist) ratio, which was good for second in the LCK Summer Split, behind only DAMWON’s Heo "ShowMaker" Su. Although many consider bot laner Park "Ruler" Jae-hyuk to be the main carry of the team, BDD brings a ton of talent and leadership to the team, making them one of the favorites from Korea to win the entire ev

Subsequently, OG also revealed their first out of lane branching team named OG CS: GO, which is comprised of the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players in the world. The team's most recent accomplishment was way back in December, wherein the team placed third and pocketed $21.5 thousand. A new front may be in the making for

While Ruler may be the perfect AD Carry , Jackeylove is a highlight waiting to happen. The former World Champion joined Top Esports at the beginning of the year and was the spark that the team needed. His fearlessness led to a lot of TES victories, and the occasional int. He looks to earn his second World Championship and cement himself as one of League’s greatest AD Carr

OG 's Dota 2 team is undeniably one of the best eSports teams in the world. They have a long list of achievements, which includes being the only team to win the International two times and in a back-to-back fashion. The team has also won several Majors along the way and other Minor tourname
