Instead of canceling this year’s event, Evo transitioned to be an online-only event. This has lead organizers to adjust more than just the venue for the tournament, with every set being adjusted to best 3 out of 5.
Happy to announce that we are changing every set in @EVO Online to 3/5 games! Get hype! #EvoOnline
