Redemption POA have been named as the replacement for AGO at Dreamhack Open Rio after the Polish side pulled out of the event.
AGO withdrew from the Brazilian event two days before it is set to kick off, citing medical issues, with reports in Poland suggesting that Dominik "GruBy" Swiderski is currently recovering from an ear infection.
Redemption POA recently qualified for the LAN final of ESL Brazil Premier League Season 8, with the team looking to continue their form at DreamHack Open Rio, their biggest tournament ever.
The Brazilian squad will be cast into Group B alongside Sharks, Valiance, and W7M, taking on Renato "nak" Nakano's troops in the first round of the double-elimination group stage.
