OG Form
For the two-time champions of The International, the current Long Season started with a fifth place finish at DPC WEU 2023 Tour 1: Division I and a fourth place finish at DPC WEU 2023 Tour 2: Division I, where the OGs earned a combined $51,000 in prize money. 5th-8th place at Pinnacle Cup: Malta Vibes #1 earned OG $1,000. But OG was able to double that amount thanks to a fifth place finish at DreamLeague Season 19. The only Major tournament of the DPC season, in which Yuragi and his team participated, was quite average. The 5th-6th place at ESL One Berlin Major 2023 helped them earn an additional $25,000. The third round of the DPC season did not make the fans of the famous club happy again, as at the DPC WEU 2023 Tour 3: Division I OG again took the fifth place. The 13th-14th place in DreamLeague Season 20 is also difficult to call a good result.
Before qualifying for The International 2023, the legendary European team played in the Riyadh Masters 2023, a $15,000,000 LAN championship in Saudi Arabia. There, OG first made it to Group B of the Play-In stage, where they finished fifth at 1-1-3. This performance forced Yuragi and his teammates into Decider matches, where they defeated Entity 2-0. Seeding for the group stage sent OG to Group A. The European club drew five matches, lost two matches and finished the tournament in 13th-14th place, earning $200,000.

- A 0-2 loss to Gaimin Gladiators

There they played to a 6-1 statistic and won, which allowed them to return to the top 8 of the region. But at the DPC WEU 2023 Tour 3: Division I, history repeated itself. Once again eighth place, and once again Team Secret are relegated to the second division. In addition, the European club finished in 11th-12th place, earning $20,000 in prize money.

A 1-2-2 statistic placed the team in fourth place in the group. After that Team Secret went to play Decider match bo3 format. Their opponent was Execration. With a 2-1 victory, Secret advanced to the group stage of the tournament, where they were placed in group B. There Puppey and his team managed to show a good game and finish with a 2-2-3 result, defeating such participants as BetBoom Team and TSM. Fifth place in the group allowed Team Secret to qualify for the lower play-offs of the championship. Puppey and team lost their only match in the final stage of the tournament to 9Pandas with the score 0:2. 9th-12th place at the Riyadh Masters 2023 earned Team Secret $300,000.
