Cases Of Coronavirus Begin At ESL One Kuala Lumpur 2023
The creator of the YouTube channel “KD ALL IN”, who is currently in Kuala Lumpur for the ESL One tournament, has reported that the coronavirus outbreak has begun at the event.
"ESL informed the teams that several players were sick and suggested that the players wear masks," the blogger wrote in his Telegram channel.
Some players followed the advice and played using a mask, while others, such as the BetBoom Team, have chosen not to wear protective equipment. There have been no official comments from the organizers yet, so there shouldn’t be any changes to the planned schedule.
A similar situation occurred at The International 11, where the Chinese team RNG caught the virus. The roster was leading their group, but after catching the virus, the players were isolated and lost all their remaining games. If you recall, xNova had to play the main stage game alone against Entity Gaming.
ESL One Kuala Lumpur runs from December 11 to 17 and features a prize pool of $1,000,000. To get more frequent updates, subscribe to our Telegram channel!
