m0NESY's passport has been delayed, so he can't arrive for the first day of play.
The passport is in transit and expected to be delivered mid-day on Thursday, which means the 19-year-old player will miss G2's debut match against Spirit.
Coach Wiktor 'TaZ' Wojtas, a well-known and respected figure in the Counter-Strike community, will temporarily play as a stand-in for G2 Esports.
'TaZ', a legendary player during the Golden Five and Polish Virtus.pro eras between 2006 and 2018, will return to the server after retiring from competition over a year ago. However, he has not competed at the highest level since early 2018, when he departed from the organization.
G2 Made a Funny Video About the Situation
Currently, 'm0NESY' is expected to come for the second game on Thursday.
