Perspective
Coming from iLx along with N0tail and NoVa, Aizik took over the drafter role in Fnatic HoN squad. Being one of the longest serving members of Fnatic HoN squad, he switched with the team to Dota 2.[clarification needed] Fly and n0tail left fnatic in August 2014.[3] Tal played the offlane role[clarification needed] for Team Secret, joining them along with BigDaddy. Tal and n0tail were separated at the end of 2014, when Aizik left Secret.[4] They were re-united after The International 2015 in order to create a new team.[5]
He founded OG on 31 October 2015. Soon after their renaming to OG, they won the Frankfurt Major tournament in November 2015, winning around US$1 million in prize money.[6] Despite a 7th-place finish at the Shanghai Major in March 2016, OG won the Manila Major in June 2016, becoming the first team to repeat as champions of a Valve-sponsored Dota 2 tournament.[7] OG also won the lesser ESL One Frankfurt 2016 tournament.[8]
OG entered The International 2016 as one of the favorites, but finished 9-12th out of 16 teams.[9] On 24 August 2016, founding members MoonMeander, Miracle- Al-Barkawi, and Cr1t- Nielsen left the team, but Fly remained.[10] On 31 August 2016, s4, JerAx, and ana joined the team.[11]
Although he won more 2 titles major, OG just finished 7-8th at The International 2017. The results made ana take a break after this. And then start of 2018, he and teams performed poorly on others tournaments.
In May 2018, he left OG to join Evil Geniuses, along with s4.[12]
He and his team EG finished 3rd in The International 2018 but he was teased mercilessly when OG defeat him and his team and they won that.

He finished 9-12th at The International 2021.
In 2021, he left EG and join Talon Esports but he left Talon and rejoins EG once again. At The International 2022, EG leads group stage but falling in brackets and finished 9-12th
