OG, the European esports franchise, created a huge upset by defeating Team Liquid, the North American team, in the lower bracket of the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive<\/a> BLAST Premier Spring Groups. The match was held on January 20, and OG emerged victorious in two maps, including a close overtime match on Nuke.<\/p>\n

This victory comes as a surprise to many, as Team Liquid had built up significant momentum heading into 2023, having achieved top-four finishes at tournaments such as ESL Pro League Season 16, BLAST Fall Finals, and the BLAST World Final. In their previous encounter, Liquid had emerged victorious against OG in the semifinals of the BLAST World Final. Despite this, OG’s players Adam “NEOFRAG” Zouhar, Abdulkhalik “degster” Gasanov, and in-game leader Nemanja “nexa” Isakovi\u0107 delivered outstanding performances, with each player getting over 50 kills across the two maps, ultimately leading to OG’s victory.<\/p>\n
