wNv miss EM3 Global Finals

Extreme Masters III Global Finals will be without the Chinese team wNv, as Liu "Savage" Bin was denied access to enter Germany.

Visa issues once again rule out wNv from competing in a tournament taking place in European soil. The team had earlier this year won the Continental Finals Asia, in front of WeMade FOX, which granted them access to the Extreme Masters III Global Finals in Hannover. But the team will not be present in Hannover next week. Liu "Savage" Bin had his visa denied, which ruled him out for participating.

A declined visa leads to Liu "Savage" Bin leaving wNv, along with Yi "zy" Zhou, who wants to focus on his studies.


Denied visa rules out these emotions at Extreme Masters III Global Finals.

Tournament organizer ESL confirms that wNv will not be present in Hannover next week and are on a hunt to find a replacement for wNv. Third place at Continental Finals Asia, TitaNs has been mentioned to be a potential candidate, but the short time-frame taken in consideration, it will be a matter of their visa being permitted or not.
