Visa complications present significant doubts regarding Ilya ‘Perfecto’ Zalutskiy’s participation in IEM Dallas 2025. Initially set to join BC.Game as a stand-in, Perfecto communicated through Telegram that he has not received a U.S. visa in time for the event, which starts in three days.

“I guess I can’t make it to Dallas,” Perfecto expressed on Telegram. “I have never had problems with other visas, only with this one, but I can’t do anything about it.”

BC.Game had turned to Perfecto after placing Joakim ‘jkaem’ Myrbostad on the bench due to allegations of significant gambling debts. As the first LAN event in the team’s history, the match against MOUZ had high expectations. Perfecto’s situation raises concerns over BC.Game’s strategy moving forward.

Perfecto added, “They promised to give it [the visa] to me before the Major, but I don’t believe it, to be honest.” Previously, he had been inactive since being benched by Cloud9 in April 2024 and was not content with his current status, stating that promises made concerning his visa status had not been fulfilled.

Moreover, BC.Game will have to prepare for the challenges ahead as they face MOUZ, emphasizing the stakes of this event.
