Recently, CLG received a big blow to their team, as jungler Xmithie is unable to join the team for Worlds due to visa issues. But their is some hope, as Philippine esports members have reached out to CLG, seeing this sort of problem in the Dota 2 scene. Over at esports.inquirer.net, Kyle Edralin has the scoop:
However, it may not yet be the final word for Xmithie’s participation in the upcoming championship. After a reddit post on /r/CLG about a fan’s potential idea that may help the situation, the Filipino community has reached out to the Philippine eSports Organization (PESO) and the newly-launched Philippine eSports Association (PeSPA) for help to solve Xmithie’s visa issue.
One of PeSPA’s members is Senator Paolo Benigno “Bam” Aquino, who had resolved the previously-cited Rave Visa issue shortly after it was brought to his attention.
eSports Inquirer staff have already pinged Senator Bam’s office and are currently in touch with PeSPA president Joebert Yu, who has alerted the associated legal partners.
Can Xmithie find a way to Worlds? IF you are a true CLG fan you will have Faith! After today’s favorable group drawings, CLG might just have a little more luck. Lets hope so! For the full article you can head here.
