if it were a team without expressiveness it would be like the berlin masters, they would send it back. so it was with the asian and australian team in the LCQ. In this world, you are worth what you have, in principle your money.

it wasnt riots decision to send back the teams in the LCQ it was the government that didnt allow entry. Thats the reason why Champions is held in germany because of less travel restrictions.

You do realize Bren Esports (the asian team) had visa issues due to the Philippines policy. So many Brazilians on this forum constantly play the victim of the minority regions, when most of the time it has nothing to do with that. Like Noyn, saying members of PlatChat are xenophobic for not having hope in Brazil.

You can test positive for COVID and not have symptoms. Sources say he feels fine

Its not even that unlikely that its a false positive since they get tested quite often

He tested positive from the PCR test. False positive rate is quite low for that one

Yes but it happens and like he said, if like 50 pro players are testing everyday, false positives are bound to happen at one point

He tested positive because he had it a few weeks ago and there are still traces of the virus in his system. He is already recovered but he tested positive so he still has to quarantine unfortunately.

If this is true, it’s optimistic that they’ll be able to go on stage for playoffs

its true, once he tests negative which will be around the playoffs stage he should be allowed on stage, hopefully

Yeah, if he can test negative in the next few days they could be on stage for playoffs for sure

Obviously you cannot put the entire team to play away from the facility, but it is too dangerous for other 4 players to play on stage and get in close contact with not infected individuals

Therefore I think that Liquid should be replaced by an equally great team like 100T or TSM

EQUALLY GREAT TEAM ROFL. Liquid hasn't lost a match since adding Nivera and 100T and TSM have both looked disappointing recently and have roster issues.
