OG BEAT TEAM LIQUID IN THE FINAL TI19
Dota 2 The International 2019 ended unconditional victory of the European OG in the centre of Mercedes-Benz in Shanghai, China. The team earned more than $15 million in prizes for the victory.
It is noteworthy that the team is doing this for the second time, thus becoming the only team that won The International twice! The guys won with the same squad as the first time, which confirms the incredible symbiosis between them. The crowd went crazy when OG raised the Aegis over their heads when they finished the best of the five Grand finals in four games, 3-1.
Many doubted that their last year’s victory was an accident and were right.
