Official: Snax denied entry into China due to damaged passport

Esports organization GamerLegion issued an official statement confirming that team IGL Janusz "⁠Snax⁠" Pogorzelski was unable to travel to FISSURE Playground 3.

Unfortunately, Snax was unable to travel to the team in China due to his passport being damaged mid-travel, which ultimately resulted in him being denied by Chinese authorities.

As a result, our assistant coach Grashog will step in for our opening match against FURIA.

We’re doing everything we can to find a short term solution which does not require a new visa process.

Until then, we’ll make the best of the situation and give it our all.

FISSURE Playground 3 will take place from September 8-13, 2026, in Suzhou, China. The total prize pool of the event will amount to $1 million, divided among 16 squads. More detailed information about the tournament can be found in our article.
