One of the biggest upcoming eSports events is the BLAST Premier: Fall 2020.
The CS:GO event will feature a regular season, Showdown and Finals. We’ll be keeping our eSports readers up-to-date on the entire tournament as it progresses, starting with the regular season.
Initially, the regular season was going to be split into two divisions (European and American), but that was changed and now there will be one single online event based in Europe.
