Visa issues constantly plague the very best of Esports teams. Recently, Hellraisers has been the latest victim of the same as they will be unable to secure visas for their players in time. They will be participating in the Dreamhack tours and will withdraw from EPL season 7 LAN finals.
Unfortunately my visa declined and my teammates don't wanted to go with stand-in, so we decided to forfeit EPL Dallas Lan Finals.And Heroic gonna play instead of us.We took their spot in Dreamhack Tours. Sorry for all supporters i hate this visa situations. SAD!😢

ESL offered us the chance to play with a stand-in, but we don’t want to waste time playing with a team that will be different from the one we want to use at the upcoming, important qualifiers for other LAN tournaments. But, we got lucky and will still be able to challenge for a title at DreamHack Tours 2018 instead of the team that will replace us at EPL Finals“
