STYKO Hospitalized Ahead of FACEIT Major Bootcamp With Cloud9

Martin "STYKO" Styk revealed on Twitter that he had been hospitalized after releasing a cryptic Instagram story showing his arm hooked up to an IV machine.

those who saw my instagram, I got hospitalized yesterday because of my fever. They can’t figure out whats wrong and they will do advanced tests. I hope I will be fine by the end of the week as I will fly to L.A. for bootcamp but doctors are not really optimistic?I’ll do my best.

STYKO had been in Slovakia for the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive player break and appears to still be in a hospital in the Eastern European country. With the Cloud9 boot camp set to begin soon, STYKO hopes to be healthy enough to fly back to the United States soon, but he said in his Twitter post that his doctors don't believe he'll be ready in time.

welp thats it from us. ggwp @mibr
thanks @Cloud9 for reaching out to me for help these two tournaments. I feel bad we didn’t get any playoff run in either of them :( we did our best.

Cloud9 is not participating in a few of the events leading up to the FACEIT London Major, including DreamHack Stockholm, meaning the team has more time than most to prepare to defend their Major title, but still does not want to start at a disadvantage by not having all five players boot camping together.
