NLC Fall Open 2020 gets underway: Team rosters, brackets and broadcasters revealed
The inaugural NLC 2020 summer season, won by Fnatic Rising, was a thrilling journey for League of Legends teams in the UK/Ireland and Nordics – and hopeful sign for things to come in the future.
Now the NLC Fall Open tournament has begun. Any team within the NLC ecosystem (including the UKLC, Telia leagues etc) are allowed to participate, with 16 teams competing for a prize pool of €24,000. There may be no Excel or Fnatic, but there’s still plenty to get excited about, as Megalodontus shows in this roster roundup.
Format details
The Open Qualifier 1 started on October 16th and the second one starts on October 23rd. Teams will play a single round elimination best-of-three, with 22 teams participating for the first Open Qualifier.
