Really looking forward to the warcraft tournament! Though its kinda sad that the russians can’t attend. Makes pools C and D really easy for the top seed. Infact i guess its pretty clear which two are going to advance from each group, except maybe group F?
Oh and our Pakistani teams were also denied visas
