OG could receive a direct invite to Riyadh Masters 2024 due to the scandal involving 1win

Because OG received the ESL One Birmingham 2024 slot that was meant for 1win, they have a greater chance to get a direct invitation to Riyadh Masters 2024. This line-up now has an opportunity of earning more EPT points and finding itself among the top eight teams that will be receiving invites.

ESL’s resolution also implies that 1win is now disqualified from participating in one of the main e-sport tournaments this year which will start in summer. As claimed by the championship organizers, top eight teams with highest EPT points collected throughout the year will be invited.

However, they were unable to qualify for DreamLeague Season 23 thus their way to Riyadh Masters 2024 is cut unless they go through regional qualifiers. That is why Timur “Ahilles” Kulmukhambetov, coach of team expressed his frustration saying their visas were ready yet someone else took their place.

Conversely, it would have seemed highly unlikely before that OG could earn an invite because they were originally set to miss this tournament but never earn desired scores. Worth mentioning that Sebastian “Ceb” Debs’s command was seventh on rating and after ESL One Birmingham 2024 most likely would cease to make it into top lists at all however now got stronger position.
