As a result of using a stand-in during the Major, two of the 18 teams will lose points. PSG. Li Longwu, an offlane player for LGD, was unable to obtain a visa in time, so Ren “old eLeVeN” Yangwei will be filling in for him at the Major. Artem “Yuragi” Golubiev, OG’s young superstar carry, will support HellRaisers in place of Nikita “Daxak” Kuzmin, who the team infamously split ways with.
