OG Form
The history of the current OG core will logically begin with November last year.

A sixth place finish in the DreamLeague Season 22 standings also added $47,500 to the European organisation's coffers. After that, OG were one step away from participating in DreamLeague Season 23, having taken the third place in qualification. Silver at PGL Wallachia Season 1: Western Europe Closed Qualifier also prevented OG from going to the LAN tournament in Romania. A 9th-10th place finish at the Elite League provided the players with $20,000 in prize money. OG also participated in ESL One Birmingham 2024.
