OG part ways with Raven, Yopaj and TIMS

OG have announced the departure of Marc Polo "Raven" Fausto, Erin "Yopaj" Ferrer and Timothy "TIMS" Randrup as the organization begins reshaping its Dota 2 roster for the new season.

OG posted on social media, thanking all three players for their contributions during what it described as a season of "many ups and downs."

The departures leave John "Natsumi-" Vargas and Andrei "skem" Ong as the two players from the lineup whose futures OG have yet to address.

OG entered the 2026 season having shifted its Dota 2 project toward Southeast Asia, but the roster underwent several changes throughout the year. Raven joined ahead of The International qualifiers, replacing Nikko after OG's brief experiment with TORONTOTOKYO came to an end.

Despite the instability, the lineup ultimately achieved its biggest goal of the season. OG defeated Grind Back 3-1 in the Southeast Asian qualifier grand final to claim the region's only place at The International 2026.

Their return to Dota 2's biggest tournament proved short-lived. OG struggled through the group stage in Shanghai, finishing with a 1-4 series record. Their only victory came against HULIGANI before a 0-2 defeat to GamerLegion eliminated them from the tournament in 14th-15th place.
