After concluding, Worlds 2020 – Riot Games have announced All-Star Event 2020 in a blog post which will feature top tier influencers and players who will battle it out for the prestigious title. Teams and players will play from their homes or in a regional Riot Games studio.

The Underdog Uprising stage will commence from December 18 and will feature teams made out of top tier players who are voted by the League of Legends community. Voted players will craft a star-studded line-up, to make it more interesting each team captain has to at least select two pros from each region. Teams will then compete in a Bo3 match format.
