If you have been a fan of CLG, then your faith has been rewarded, as jungler Xmithie has worked out his visa issues and will be playing in groups. This is huge, especially since CLG have one of the weaker groups, so a trip to the semi finals just got easier. Check out all the people who lent a hand:
Getting this VISA approved was an against-all-odds scenario. Several authorities and legal counsel told us it was impossible to accomplish. Our staff, particularly Devin “Mylixia” Nash and Matthew “Mattcom” Marikian worked day and night to see the process through.
Several members of the community reached out to us after the announcement that Jake’s VISA wasn’t possible to complete in the time allotted. These people were instrumental in advising and rushing the process at critical areas to get it completed. We couldn’t have done this VISA without them and Xmithie wouldn’t have gone to group stages.
We are so grateful for their help and wanted to list them below:
- Paolo Bago from the Philippine Esport Organization
- Michal Meduna from the European Commission
- Also the Philippine Esports Team, Philippine Senator Bam Aquino and his office, and Norman E. Cualteros.
