Invictus Gaming carrier Jin “flyfly” Zhiyi, the team's manager Yakult, and coach Su “super” Peng all tested positive for COVID-19 after another PCR test.
The Chinese organization released the update late last night as translated by Dot Esports. PSG.LGD, Elephant and Vici Gaming test results were negative, meaning only Aster and IG can be affected when entering The International 10.
Following the news of the outbreak of Covid-29 in Team Aster on September 19, PCR tests were performed quickly on each club's players as all Chinese teams stayed in the same hotel.
While IG initially reported that all members were negative, Thiay “JT-” Jun Wen's positive test a day later raised concerns for the Chinese camp. Unfortunately for the team, symptoms ranged from mild fever to headache, affecting other IG members.
The team has suspended training since September 29 and all players and staff continue to isolate themselves and await instructions from tournament organizer PGL.
TI10 is scheduled to kick off in five days, with the group stage played in hotel rooms. With schedules yet to be announced, affected teams may receive accommodations from Valve and PGL.
