We all remember OG’s incredible TI win last year.

From the anime-grade betrayal that was Fly and s4’s departure, to OG’s insane run from a last place ranking to the Aegis, OG’s story was the stuff of dreams are made of.

But the thing that made it all that much more incredible was their twenty-year-old rookie midlaner. Not only was he picked up just three months before TI, Topias “Topson” Taavitsainen had virtually zero LAN experience before setting foot on the biggest stage in Dota.

Thanks to one tournament, this quiet and unassuming Finn went from streaming in his bedroom to shaking hands with the President.
