m0NESY to miss first BLAST Spring Final match

The AWPer's passport is delayed and he is not expected to arrive in time to make the first day of play.

G2's star AWPer, Ilya "⁠m0NESY⁠" Osipov, is currently stuck in limbo as he waits for his passport after a last-minute visa approval that would allow him to travel to London for the BLAST Premier Spring Final.

m0NESY set to travel to BLAST Premier Spring Final after last-minute visa approval

The passport is currently stuck in transit and is now expected to be delivered mid-day on Thursday, which means that the 19-year-old will miss G2's debut match against Spirit.

The match between G2 and Spirit would have been the first time Russia's top two talents, m0NESY and Danil "⁠donk⁠" Kryshkovets, who are both currently gunning for player of the year, would face each other.

Match

Coach Wiktor "⁠TaZ⁠" Wojtas will return to the servers in the AWPer's stead as G2 continue to field a stand-in after IEM Dallas, where Jake "⁠Stewie2K⁠" Yip took the mantle from Rasmus "⁠HooXi⁠" Nielsen and helped the team lift the trophy in Texas.

The 38-year-old coach, previously a legendary player in his own right during the Golden Five and Polish Virtus.pro eras between 2006 and 2018, will return to the server after retiring from competition over a year ago, although he has not competed at the highest level since early 2018, when he departed the Armenian organization.

without monesy g2 needs to pull a life game, even in dallas with stewie they still had him in good form, not having him is like taking away zywoo from vita or donk from spirit. it wouldnt be that bad if the team they were facing wasnt spirit lol

Yeah I agree lol but the odds were like a 8x multipler for G2 which I dont think is accurate if he would have played.

Can someone explain how Russians get visas now? How do you get visa approval but passport is delayed like with 9pandas? How/why m0nesy is flying to another country to collect his passport (without passport)?

We get randomly it only for trip dates. Really randomly can depends on your surname. If it doesn’t go through security check = decline. Also as far as I know he lives in Serbia. In Serbia Russian people without residence permit can’t use any embassy. So, problem with third countries could be because of this.

Again, how is this allowed? > Monesy will not play > Monesy will play > Money will not play first day If he cannot play the first, he shouldn't be allowed to play the remaining matches. This is a massive breach of integrity

G2's roster was submitted with m0nesy and probably taz as sub. They can play any of these players.
2024-06-12 14:08

How so he's on their player list? And Taz is listed as their stand-in. It's not like they're abusing the rules to have a 6 man roster. Do you think teams should have to surrender if they would need stand-in in the middle of a tournament?

funny, he wont play the first match but the ones after he will, if it was a Brazilian team, or any team that wasn't european, they wouldn't let the 5th player play the entire tournament, but it is G2, what a disgrace to let monesy out of the tournament
