OG disbands its second Dota 2 team OG Seed because of "conflict of interest"
OG has today announced that it is releasing its second Dota 2 roster, OG Seed, due to ongoing "conflicts of interest" with its main team.
OG Seed was set up last year to develop even more Dota 2 talent at the back-to-back TI winners, but after less than seven months the team will now be disbanded as the organisation failed to establish official multi-team ownership and as a result could not enter the team into any tournaments OG's main roster would be competing in.
"Because of unforeseen situations (the devastating Covid-19 pandemic), The International 10 was postponed, and the competitive calendar for the rest of the year became unclear," OG says in a statement. "We always knew the two rosters would not be able to compete in TI10 under OG, but as the new calendar started shaping into regional tournaments, we saw that having two rosters competing in the same tournament created a potential conflict of interest. We worked with other teams and Tournament Organizers to try to find a solution, but despite our efforts, we realized that it was still probably a little too soon to try to properly implement multi-team ownership.

Dota 2 Update - June 6th 2020
This update adds an option to allow players who preferred using the Sideshop to continue doing so. With the new option enabled, you will be able to use recycling to earn gold instead of the current mechanic. The option can be toggled on and off depending on your recycling preference at any time. Furthermore, gold will be provided once again through Guilds and Gauntlets.
We recognize that some players may have already spent their gold and consumed their gems since our update Thursday. We will be restoring everyone's gold to the value it was before the update. We will also restore any spent gems since then. Any items redeemed through the store will still remain in player's inventories.
Regarding the state of the bench, we know some players would want it reverted while others wouldn’t so we added a new button in the Sideshop to let you choose before taking any actions.
