Outsiders withdraw from IEM Dallas 2022 Qualifier due to visa issues!

IEM stated on Twitter that Outsiders have declined to compete in the closed European qualification for IEM Dallas 2022, citing visa issues as the cause. Apeks will take the place of Dzhami “Jame” Ali’s team in the European qualifier bracket.

*The team with the highest ESL rating among the teams who did not advance through the open qualifier earned the invitation.*

This isn’t the first time news about the Outsiders/Virtus.pro camp has surfaced recently; just today, rumors surfaced about Mareks “YEKINDAR” Gainskis’ likely resignation following the PGL Major in Antwerp.
