Luminosity’s Mexican roster encounters visa issues, will use subs at ALGS Championship

In what has become an unfortunately regular occurrence for the Apex Legends Global Series, Luminosity Gaming announced today that its team will have to field multiple substitutes for the LAN after two of its players were unable to obtain visas to enter the U.S.

LG were one of the best stories to emerge out of North America in the second split of the Pro League. Competing as free agents, the Mexican trio of Jacobo “NMEgo” Rios, Luis Enrique “Neazul” Ramos Suarez, and Saul “YanYa” Ocampo (also known as GhanjaMen) qualified for the Stockholm LAN on the back of YanYa’s star performances. The team went on to finish fifth in Sweden, winning $60,000 and qualifying for the ALGS Championship.
