Teams with stand-ins are doing surprisingly good during the Berlin Major Group Stage.
It is day three of the ESL One Berlin Major and the results so far are pretty surprising. It seems like the teams that came into the tournament without their full-roster-power have been buffed throughout the Group Stage. Let’s take a look at the current Berlin Major Group Stage standings.

Name a more iconic duo than OG and stand-ins. The prominent organization has been facing continuous VISA issues since the new roster’s first LAN appearance in 2022. But their record with a skewed roster is incredibly.. good.
There were worries and doubts about OG’s performance at the Berlin Major as MinD_ContRoL and Kitrak fill in the shoes of DM and Chu. But so far, OG is killing it. The team has scored three series wins against Xtreme Gaming, Talon Esports, and Team SMG. They also scored three draws against Tundra Esports, Team Spirit, and Invictus Gaming with no series losses at hand. This pushed them to the top of Group B with a 9-3 scoreline.
