Eastern European players in the former soviet bloc, like Strelok, have always had outstanding issues getting visas for international events. In no way is this mouz's fault. Blame the overwhelming bureaucracy. | ||

It would make more sense if Alive replaced the open bracket winner who couldn't come but not if a player from the group stage can't make it when a player from the group can. | ||

Trying not to paint a whole region with a brush here, but there's been numerous problems with players from the Ex-USSR - Eastern European countries like Ukraine, Russia, Belarus - attaining visas and getting to international events in the past. It honestly shouldn't have to happen these days. Visa requirements for eastern european countries are stricter due to economic reasons, another victory for bureaucracy  The embassies of EU countries are not any less strict in that regard. | ||

Me. ^--- quite true, and i guess this will be another reason why u wont be back for season 2. how long do these visas last, like a couple of days? if it lasts for like 6 month+, why cant strelok just get one to have one, so this shit doesnt happen | ||

I would guess it is because players from the groups that were not 1st and 2nd also played playoffs for a possibility to attend grand finals. Using one of them would basically invalidate the playoffs they played. | ||
