The competition had been held completely online since March, due to the ongoing concern surrounding the global health situation, and that continued for Season 2 as well.
This tournament venture between B Site Inc. and FACEIT kicked off its second season on November 10, 2020 – the playoffs culminating on December 6 with a Grand Final matchup between Virtus.pro and OG.
The best-of-three final began with OG taking a 1-0 lead after claiming a 16-10 victory on Mirage before VP tied things up with their own 16-9 win on Train. Everything came down to one single game on Inferno, which proved to be a tight affair before the eventual champions pulled away with a 16-12 win.
