Why doesn't valve have any problems with Russian players visas in CSGO?
It's just poor planning and decision making on riot's part.
Stop being a riot yesman
You know there can be better planning on riot's part right?
Such as choosing a location where it's easier for Russian players to get visas.
Maybe allocate extra time in case these types of situations happen...
Of course they can't change politics but they can do their best to avoid such situations from happening in the first place.
Considering Riot, compared to CSGO TOs, had practically cut off any CIS events from their official ecosystem might have an effect.
Also, I don't think it's that deep, no? If it was, we should be hearing the same problems soon from Shao, Suygetsu, or... get this... Redgar's own teammate, right?
