BLAST Premier 2020 Fall Series and Showdown will be played online

BLAST tournament organizer has announced a change in the format of fall events BLAST Premier Fall Series 2020 and BLAST Premier Fall Showdown 2020. Both championships will run online due to the epidemiological situation, which disrupts all teams from gathering in one place.

At the same time, the organizers shared information about the final event of 2020, which is now scheduled for December 8-13.
