Originally, it was planned that Worlds 2020 would stop off in various major Chinese cities. Due to the pandemic the plan was discarded, but now at least some fans will enjoy the finale. The final will be opened by a live performance of the LoL band K/DA and a live performance of this year’s Worlds song “Take over”.
In the midst of numerous cancellations in other Esport titles, the Worlds 2020 is thus the only major tournament with spectators this year.
