Fnatic is set to be at quite a deficit heading into the Dota 2 PGL Arlington Major, as the esports organisation has now revealed that it will have to attend the tournament with a roster consisting of three substitute players.
This comes as difficulties obtaining VISAs means that Jaunuel "Jaunuel" Arcilla, Armel "Armel" Tabios, and Marc "Raven" Fausto will not be able to head to the United States for the Texan tournament, and only Anucha "Jabz" Jirawong and Djardel "DJ" Mampusti will be left from the main roster.
As for when PGL Arlington is set to take place, the Major starts on August 4 and will run until August 14. There will be a prize pool of $500,000 up for grabs.
The Dreamleague will feature multiple LAN events and will kick off next month.
The team beat out Team Liquid to secure $200,000 in prize money.
"While the battle against cheaters and cheat developers often takes place in the shadows," Valve wants to make this example extremely visible.
The esports organisation is leaving the competitive scene while it assesses the game's financial viability.
The tournament will see the 18 best teams from around the world competing for a share of a $500,000 prize pool.
They'll be held on three different continents.
