OG secured a spot at The International 2026 through the Southeast Asia qualifier.
OG defeated Grind Back in the grand final of the Southeast Asia closed qualifier for The International 2026 and secured a spot in the year’s main tournament.
The match ended with a score of 3-1. In a closely contested first map, Grind Back managed to open the series with a win and took the lead in the next game, but OG staged a comeback to even the series. The third and fourth maps followed a similar pattern—GB couldn’t find a way to counter the fast-paced drafts of the Philippine team.

- John Anthony “Natsumi” Vargas
