Reason: Participation in Valve’s DotA2 tournament – The International 4 (TI4)
TI4 Background - Arguably the biggest E-sport tournament, which as of now boasts a prize pool of $10,000,000+, where 19 of the top teams in the world will battle at Key Arena in Seattle on July 18-21 to be crowned champions.
The Issue - CiS faces the possibility of being unable to compete due to their Visa applications being denied twice. They have currently scheduled a third interview.
The DotA2 community beseech the United States government to approve CiS-gaming’s Visas in order for them to be able to compete in this event.
