PSG.LGD knocked out of DreamLeague S13 China Open Qualifier

China Dota 2 powerhouse, PSG.LGD has been eliminated from the DreamLeaugue Season 13 China Open Qualifier after losing to FTD Apollo in the Round of 16. 

PSG.LGD chose to skip MDL Major Chengdu Major and DOTA Summit 11 following the departure of  Yao “357” Yi from the team and Xu “FY” Linsen’s eye surgery. Leaving the Open Qualifier means they won’t be able to attend DreamLeague Season 13 The Leipzig Major and WePlay! Bukovel Minor 2020, the second Major and Minor of the season.

Their knockout marks the first big upset of the season as PSG.LGD is one of the most successful Dota 2 teams in the game’s history. They took third place in The International 2012, 2015, and 2019 while finishing second in 2018.

Whether FTD Apollo was just lucky in their match against PSG.LGD or have the makings of becoming a top tier team will have to be seen.
