Old G returns to the Western Europe DPC by acquiring PuckChamp’s slot.
It’s heated in WEU DPC at the moment as Old G pulled a literal buyback into the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC). The popular stack had just been disqualified from WEU DPC following Ceb’s sharp remarks against PGL. But they found a backdoor and acquired PuckChamp’s slot in Western Europe’s Division II. The squad also signs Israeli player, Aramis as Old G part ways with Resolut1on.
Old G’s roster for Tour 3 DPC:
Resolut1on out, Aramis in
Old G tweaks its roster as the team head into Tour 3 DPC with a new player. The team’s now-former offlaner, Resolut1on, departs from the lineup. Filling in the vacant spot is 22-year-old Israeli, Aramis. And seeing that Aramis is a position 4 player, we can assume Ceb returns to position 3 for the next Tour.

Old G has ensured their reincarnation in the DPC by acquiring a slot from PuckChamp. The players including newly-signed Aramis recently registered under PuckChamp as seen on theDota 2 Majors Registration page. This likely indicates that Old G had purchased PuckChamp’s slot, allowing them to skip the lengthy Open Qualifiers and directly play in the DPC.
While buying slots is a normal occurrence in Dota 2, this particular case has an underlying drama. Only a day before, PGL, the tournament organizer for WEU DPC,disqualified Old G from WEU’s Closed Qualifier.

This punishment follows Ceb’s angry Tweet against the organizer which PGL deemed broke their rules of conduct. The penalty supposedly sent Old G to the Open Qualifiers. But by hook or by crook, Old G makes it into the DPC.
