Two new teams have been announced for this November's SL i-League Invitational in Shanghai, with Virtus.pro to fill in for Gambit and HAVU stepping in for Space Soldiers.

The news comes from a post by ImbaTV on the Chinese social media site weibo, where it has been announced that HAVU and Virtus.pro have been added to the team list. The Finish squad, that features the exciting 15-year-old talent Jere "⁠sergej⁠" Salo and currently sits at #34 at our ranking, comes in as a replacement for Space Soldiers, to who they lost the deciding match in the European qualifier.

One the other hand, Virtus.pro is stepping in for Gambit, who according to the post, pulled out due to visa issues.

Snax and co. will compete in China next month

To remind you, after qualifying for the event, Space Soldiers withdrew from SL i-League Shanghai Invitational due to an overlap with the European Minor, with the Americas Minor taking place at the same time as well.

There are currently three open slots for the $150,000 event, with the teams expected to be announced soon:
