StarLadder Moves LAN Finals to Romania after Visa Issues

by on March 11, 2015
 

You may remember towards the start of the year that the StarLadder 11 LAN finals were plagued by visa issues that saw no Chinese teams take part and a number of stand-in CIS teams make an appearance. Well StarLadder has decided that enough is enough and to prevent any further issues is moving its LAN finals to Romania instead of Ukraine.

The move will be the first StarLadder finals not to be held in Ukraine, and will see a $80,000 prize pool along with travel support for all teams. The finals will take place in Bucharest from April 24-26.

As ever the long StarLadder qualification process is set to kick off in the coming weeks, you can see all the action on Twitch or in game by purchasing the ticket.

eSports! I joined God is a Geek all the way back in September 2013 and since then have spent most of my time on Dota 2, and occasionally posting the odd review, news article or totally wrong predictions for The International. When I am not playing Dota I can probably be seen watching some kind of strange eSport or begging for more Twitter followers (@MikeStubbsy if you are interested). Aside from GiaG I am a computing student, football coach and major Apple fanboy.
