Among their achievements, the players had a successful finish in the DPC WEU 2023 Tour 1: Division II, finishing in second place and earning $16,000. But then a seventh place finish at the DPC WEU 2023 Tour 2: Division I sent them back to Division II. The first tournament in which SsaSpartan and his teammates played as KZ Team was European Pro League Season 11, where they successfully made it through the group stage with a 6-1 statistic and made it to the top set of play-offs. In the quarter-finals, KZ Team defeated Ram Squad 2-1, before losing to Level UP on two consecutive maps and dropping to the lower grid. A 2:1 win over Ancient Tribe put the Greek-Georgian squad into the semi-finals of the losers' bracket. But Team Sexy were stronger than KZ Team. So the team took the fourth place at EPL Season 11 and earned a consolation prize of $500. BetBoom Dacha - Online Stage, qualifying for the main stage of the tournament with a prize pool of $250,000, ended with KZ Team in 5th-6th place.

Infinity uniforms
Peruvians from the esports organisation Infinity are having a poor season and have missed out on all Major tournaments this year, as well as major international championships. The gaming year started for Infinity with a sixth place finish at the DPC SA 2023 Tour 1: Division I, for which the team received $24,000. A 7th-8th place finish in the standings at the BTS Pro Series Season 14: Americas provided the players with only $950 in prize money. In the second round of the DPC South America, the Peruvians managed to improve their position. Fourth place at DPC SA 2023 Tour 2: Division I earned them $26,000 and the 60 DPC points needed to qualify for The International 2023. Infinity placed in the top 4 at 1XPLORE LATAM #2 and were rewarded with the top 4. 5th-6th place finishes at 1XPLORE LATAM #3 and 1XPLORE LATAM #4 left the team winless. Infinity were then on the verge of dropping out of Division I again, finishing sixth at DPC SA 2023 Tour 3: Division I. At Phygital Games 2023 Season 2, Gardick and his teammates finished in 7th-8th place, earning a consolation prize of $1,087.
