I know how frustrating visas are. I hope these competitors can get semi-special treatment because of the nature of their profession.

Next time play in the Korean WCS and stop taking chances away from NA players. I say KARMA has arrived.

This might sound cruel but isn't this actually amazing? I really like that round of 16 is live in studio as it is going to hurt the vultures.

Well, Violet has a history of living and playing in NA since way before the WCS even existed. Makes it all the more stupid...

This makes zero sense. Violet was already living in America and saying how much he loved the United States before the idea of WCS North America was even thought of. Violet's more American than pretty much everyone left in the tournament, excluding the actual American, Suppy.

Haha, that is because Suppy is the ONLY American left

I was a mod on viOLets stream back when he was able to stream on Twitch, and I have to say, the guy is incredibly nice and genuine, and he truly loves to be in America. I really hope these issues get solved for him in the future! As I haven't been out of the USA, I don't have a clue what issues come up.

What's stupid is that Violet's management didn't properly sort his visa whilst he was living, and working in the US for a year.

Stop flaming the USA visa system, its NOT to blame.

State got third in violet's group. They should have just given his spot to state because he was already at mlg's studios due to the shoutcraft finals. MLG dropped the ball there because I don't see how anyone would have a problem with 3rd place in his group taking his spot. It's only logical.

His management and team staff should have sorted this all out before he entered into a region in which he is not a resident.

He wanted to get a leg up on some easier competiton. It didn't work for him. Lesson learnt: Play in your own region.
Win. That's all that matters. Win. Nobody likes to lose.

I believe MasterCard is a bit more lax on their approvals. If Visa declined him, maybe he should have applied for MasterCard instead...

GL viOlet, hope you get more financial support in the future to fund your tournament expenses and not rely on credit.

gimme your talent that allows you to foresee blizzard plan and apply for visas before the event you're going to is even announced. It looks pretty sick. Or learn about the us (and most countries anyway) visa system before trying to be smart.
Zest fanboy.
