It is mandatory that three of the five athletes have the residence corresponding to the league. In this case, the LCS accepts players from the United States, Canada and Oceania as residents. There are cases where nationality is provided to certain individuals after a certain time, following with the corresponding procedures. This pretended to be Core’s case, but still does not get his resident card . This was informed Alejandro Gomes and Warren Younger for Up comer.
The solution was three slopes: send Hans Samey to the bench, Core or Gabriel WIPO Ran before the start of the Lock In tournament. He does not mean that there would be a last-second surprise sign, since Team Liquid can bring his players from the Academy to play the League of Legends contest. According to Gomes and Younger, this will happen.
