Ihor MatusTeam Empire will perform with a stand-in at The International 2017. The manager of the Dota 2 roster, Dmitry «Korb3n» Belov has informed about this.
The cyber-sportsman has already made a visa to the USA but hasn’t received back his passport. Team Empire has stated on the official Vkontakte group that they had done all possible to resolve the situation, however, managers and lawyers had not been able to help.
