More international matchups as Week 3 of OGN APEX gets under way
With the conclusion of APAC, we get the opportunity to see more teams make their first appearances on the OGN stage.
After barely two weeks of play, it is still far too early to make any definitive claims about group expectations (especially when not all teams have played at least one series yet). Although from what we have seen so far, BK Stars are off to a strong start in Group B, with them being the only team so far with a 2-0 record.
