Vega Squadron will have to take part in The International 9 qualifiers with a stand-in. Alexey "j4" Lipai won't be able to participate due to health issues.

Vega Squadron Sports Director, Georgy Faleev:

- In the beginning of June j4 faced some health issues. We took a break in practice matches for him to get better. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to, so he's going inactive for now.

We are already testing the position 5 supports. The name of our stand-in for the qualifiers will be announced closer to the beginning of those. Me and the whole Vega Squadron team wishes Alexey a quick recovery!
