Visaprobleme: 100 Thieves sagt ELEAGUE Major Teilnahme ab

Schlechte Nachricht für alle Fans des brasilianischen Lineups 100 Thieves. Wie die Veranstalter des ELEAGUE Majors gestern bekannt gaben, wird das Ensemble rund um Vito ‚kNg‘ Giuseppe nicht wie erwartet am Turnier teilnehmen können. Als Grund werden Visa-Probleme angegeben. Wer das Team ersetzen wird, wird sich nach der Challenger Stage herausstellen. In Decider-Matches sollen die Teams gegeneinander antreten, die 2-3 Siege während der neuen Qualifier-Phase einfahren konnten.

Statement 100 Thieves

We worked incredibly hard with industry-leading immigration lawyers since the day we signed the players to get them here with plenty of time to spare. Unfortunately, things don’t always go according to plan. That being said, we can’t wait to see these guys compete this year.

Statement ELEAGUE

ELEAGUE has just confirmed that, unfortunately, 100Thieves has not been able to secure visas in time to be eligible to compete in The ELEAGUE Major: Boston. We will identify a replacement through the use of decider matches, formatted in collaboration with Valve, that will include the team(s) finishing The New Challenger stage with a 2-3 record who also faced the strongest performing opponents. The team to perform the best in the decider match(es) will replace 100Thieves in The New Legends stage set to begin Friday, Jan. 19, at 10 a.m. ET on Twitch.
