It’s Labor Day weekend, the unofficial end of summer, which means it’s also time for the League summer season to draw to a close.
Immortals will be making the organization’s first-ever appearence in LCS finals where they will have the tough task of taking on veterans Team Solo Mid. It’ll be up to the newcomers to prevent some of TSM’s all-star players from completely dominating the series and potentially make history. But there’s plenty going on beyond the LCS finals in North America and Europe, however, with a CS:GO DreamHack tournament and several big fighting game events scattered out across the globe.
Below you’ll find where and when you can catch all the weekend’s biggest events in competitive gaming. Let us know what you’ll be watching in the comments or if you think there’s something we might have missed.
