Thai Dota 2 player Nuengnara ‘23savage’ Teeramahanon has returned to Talon Esports to compete in the new season. After seven months playing in Europe, 23savage is back in Southeast Asia on loan from OG to help Talon strengthen their roster.

23savage joined OG in late 2024, hoping to take on new challenges. He played with big names like Leon ‘Nine’ Kirilin and Sébastien ‘Ceb’ Debs. However, the team didn’t perform well and missed key tournaments, including ESL One Bangkok 2024. In March 2025, OG released its players after poor results.

Now, 23savage is back with Talon. He will play with midlaner Mikoto from Indonesia, team captain KuKu from the Philippines, offlaner Ws from Malaysia, and support player Jhocam from Indonesia.

Fans are excited to see 23savage return. He played a big role in Talon’s success, helping them finish third at the Lima Major and Riyadh Masters 2023. The Thai star also holds the top spot on the Southeast Asia MMR leaderboard.

Talon will compete in DreamLeague Season 26 starting May 19. The team aims to qualify for the Esports World Cup 2025 in Riyadh this July.
