Yeah will miss IEM New York 2020

Brazilian eSports organization Yeah announced their decision not to participate in the IEM New York 2020 North America RMR tournament. The reason was the inability to declare Michael "Swisher" Schmid as a new player, as the application period has already expired.

The claimed Yeah roster includes Victor "iDk" Torak, who has temporarily left the squad to spend time with his family. Due to quarantine measures, he was unable to return from Brazil to the United States, where the team is based. The organization still had the option to coach, but it decided to focus on training with Swisher.

Swole Patrol faced the same problem. The team was invited for IEM New York 2020 with Edgar "MarKE" Maldonado, but he moved to Chaos, after which he was replaced by Maxim "wippie" Shepelev. As a result, the place of the Russian in the tournament be will be taken the coach Ian "Immi" Harding.

The status of MIBR is still unknown. After the decision to dismiss TACO and fer team lost FalleN as well, this actions reduced the line-up to two people. In addition, the Brazilians received an invitation on the basis of their RMR rating, but later Valve deprived them of all points due to coaching bug abuse.
