The hype about the Rio 2020 major hasn't been for nothing. It would have been a tournament, we would talk about for years to come. Sadly due to the ongoing pandemic, it has been postponed beyond saving. Therefore, it is final that ESL One Rio 2020 is cancelled for good. We here at eManager, are very unfortunate to bring these news, but the safety of humanity will always come first. We are looking forward to when it's possible to have these events once again, but for now we will have to cherish the moments we already have.
