Topson is back in Europe and his spectacular return to OG is not far away

It’s the moment OG fans have been waiting for. Topias “Topson” Taavitsainen is back in Europe, and his return to the competitive scene is not far away.

Topson has been missing in action

No official announcement has been made explain his absence, but it’s widely speculated that he has been spending time in Malaysia with his girlfriend Mawar Remy and her family.

Topson might even be stuck there given all the travel restrictions. It didn’t stop him from trying to play with his team a couple of weeks ago. But he obviously had latency issues because OG competes on European servers. So rather than let that impact their performance, a mutual decision was made to let him have some time off until he’s back.

Several players stood in for Topson at different times. The most recent one was Sebastian “Ceb” Debs, who came out of retirement for the occasion. Before him, there was Neta “33” Shapira, Omar Mohammad “Madara” Dabachach, and Quinn “CCnC” Callahan.

OG performed quite well with the stand-ins. They finished third in OGA Dota PIT 2020 and Gamers Without Borders. They also finished second in ESL One Los Angeles 2020. But they didn’t do so well in WePlay! Pushka League, failing to qualify for the playoffs. However, it’s not a big deal given the circumstances.

Step aside, Maverick. Topson has officially landed

It doesn’t matter anymore. Because Topson is back in Europe and ready to go.
