Misfortune plagues EMS One as yet another team - Team Empire - forfeited their attendance for the upcoming EMS One Fall LAN finals. All this is while Vici Gaming still has not obtain their visa and with another undisclosed team possibly pulling out as well.
Set to begin on the 7th of December at Tychy, Poland, EMS One has hit a road bump as Team Empire has decided to pull out of the tournament because they could not obtain the visa to go to Poland for underage player Roman 'resolut1on' Fominok. As a result, EMS has invited Serbian team ONE to take their place.
This news is fresh off EMS' announcement a few days ago that DK have forfeited their attendance in the tournament. Their replacement Vici Gaming told GosuGamers that they went to the Polish embassy yesterday and they are currently waiting for results for their application. They will most likely receive news tomorrow morning.
Apart from this, EMS One may be set for more misfortune as one of the teams participating in the tournament contacted us yesterday and told us they have problems attending the tournament as well. They would still try to go assuming they have to take a stand-in but would like to stay anonymous until they settled it internally.
