Currently, the organizers have set up a schedule to delay the schedule and do not agree to decide to play the final of SBTC Esports.
Influence and consideration:
Although the players feel stable health due to no symptoms, they are still not allowed to participate in the competition because of the following risks:
– The BTC BTC Icon Series SEA SEA of Vietnam 2021 and Riot Games Southeast Asia will be heavily responsible for not giving priority to the health safety of the teams.
– The members of the team had subjective health safety rules related to the epidemic of Covid-19, when the epidemic situation in Vietnam was still at an alarming level.
– The actual team members are still heavily affected, which can lead to many other health hazards, as well as negative impacts on their ability to play.
Solution:
On Sunday afternoon, August 22, the BTC BTC Series SEA SEA Icon of Vietnam 2021 and Southeast Asia Riot Games received a notice of the positive result of some members of some members of the SBTC Esports team.
Therefore, in order to ensure the health safety when playing, the decisive tournament will postpone the final of Vietnam's autumn SEA Series 2021 between SBTC Esports and Divine Esports until the SBTC team completely recovered. SBTC is also allowed to change emergency personnel if required.
The BTC BTC Series SEA SEA of Vietnam and Riot Games Southeast Asia will update the schedule in the near future, as well as continue to follow the treatment situation of SBTC Esports to ensure the safety of the team.
