February 19, 2024

Patryk "paTiTek" Fabrowski will start for Team Heretics Team Heretics Europe Rank #22 MiniBoo Dominykas Lukaševičius Wo0t Mert Alkan RieNs Enes Ecirli benjyfishy Benjy David Fish Boo Ričardas Lukaševičius until Mert "Wo0t" Alkan is able to participate, as he is currently underage. Wo0t will be eligible to play on March 16, two days after the beginning of Masters Madrid. The updated roster was confirmed in a new video from the Spanish org.

Both Enes "RieNs" Ecirli and Wo0t have struggled to obtain a visa, which means they are not currently in Berlin. Due to these issues, Riot has allowed Turkish players to participate in VCT remotely. RieNs will instead play from Istanbul, in Papara SuperMassive's facilities, while the remainder of the roster will be present at the Riot Games Arena.

Team Heretics will play in the opening match of EMEA Kickoff on February 20, facing off against FUT Esports.

from the EMEA promotional video that released today it looks like BBL were struggling too
(every team has a proper filmed segment in the Arena and bbl just has a joke at the end that they finally got their visa)

BBL kinda had it too if they didnt get the visa on time, they make it in the last second so only heretics have to use this
