Dota 2: OG Confirms Departure of 3 Players from Its Roster

26. March 2025 by Francisco Villafana

The rumors circulating over the past few days have finally been confirmed. OG has officially announced the departure of three players from its roster following a series of disappointing performances in recent tournaments.

OG Says Goodbye to Three Players

The first confirmed departure is xNova. The Malaysian player joined OG at the beginning of the year as a full-time roster member after a trial period. Unfortunately, he was unable to showcase his best form. In his farewell statement, he mentioned that he would be taking a break from competitive play before returning at a later time.

The second player leaving OG is 23, who was one of the most criticized members of the roster. He was brought in as a replacement for Timado, and initially, there were high expectations for him to become a cornerstone of the team. However, both parties ultimately agreed that it would be best for the Thai player to step down.

Lastly, Ceb has also exited the active roster. However, rather than leaving the organization entirely, he has been placed on inactive status.

Ceb Speaks on His Departure

Shortly after the announcement, OG released a video featuring Ceb, where he explained his decision to step back.

In the video, Ceb revealed that he was initially called upon to support the team during the upcoming qualifiers, and he accepted because he felt he was in good shape. However, as time passed, he realized that he was not in the best position to continue competing at the highest level, and ultimately, he decided to step aside.

What’s Next for OG?

OG has also uploaded a video to its official YouTube channel discussing the team’s future. While the exact lineup remains unclear, multiple sources have reported the players likely to form OG’s next roster.

Potential New OG Roster:

  1. Ulnit
  2. Nine
  3. DavaiLama
  4. Daze
  5. Kidaro

For weeks, rumors have suggested that OG will sign three players from Night Pulse, and this speculation is now stronger than ever.
