NAVI and Entropiq will miss IEM Dallas 2022

Tournament operator ESL has announced changes to the IEM Dallas 2022 roster. NaVi and Entropiq teams are forced to miss the championship due to problems with obtaining documents to enter the United States. As a result, BIG and Movistar Riders will take part in the tournament, who took 3rd and 8th places in the closed qualifier for Europe.

Due to visa issues, NAVI and Entropiq will unfortunately not be joining us at IEM Dallas 2022. In addition, Copenhagen Flames, next on the list, were also unable to accept the invitation to the tournament. As a result, the next eligible teams to accept the invitation were BIG and Movistar Riders.

Recall that NAVI received an invitation to the championship due to its status as a partner of the ESL tournament operator. In turn, Entropiq won the closed European qualifier.

According to the tournament operator ESL, the Danish team Copenhagen Flames will also not be able to participate in the championship, as a result of which invitations were issued to BIG and Movistar Riders.

Note that Spinx, playing for the ENCE team, also runs the risk of missing the championship. The Israeli also faced problems in obtaining a visa.

The final roster of IEM Dallas 2022 participants is as follows: ENCE, FaZe Clan, FURIA, G2 Esports, Ninjas in Pajamas, Astralis, Heroic, Cloud9, Team Vitality, Looking For Org, Imperial Esports, Team Liquid, Complexity Gaming, MOUZ, BIG and Movistar Riders.
