ESL One Cologne coverage hub

23-8-2015 11:14

As usual with the majors, we're bringing out the coverage hub once again for you to have everything organized in one place.

For those unaware what the coverage hub is - the coverage hub is a place where everything connected to a certain event is linked, organized in one place, this time naturally for ESL One Cologne.

If you ever get lost in the news posts during the major or if you'd like to refresh your memory, this is the place to come back to. We will also keep this post updated during the event and we will move it up every now and again so that it doesn't get lost from the main page.

wasnt the new format meant to eliminate the fact that you are out of the event with 2 lost maps? now the system only seems to eliminate the posibility that you play against the same enemy again...
