After the announcement of IEM Melbourne 2020 we got to have a quick chat with ESL Australia's Head Account Manager, Ben Green. We talked about the motivations of moving away from Sydney, logistics of the IEM Melbourne 2020 group stages and playoffs, and the possibility of a Caches IV show match.

Just announced, both the League of Legends Oceanic Pro League Finals and Warcraft III: Reforged will be joining the line-up of the Melbourne Esports Open 2020. They sit alongside IEM Melbourne for Counter-Strike and the JB Hi-Fi Game On Zone which returns for the third year.

Today ESL announced that IEM Melbourne will be replacing the yearly Sydney event for 2020. The event will be held in conjunction with the Melbourne Esports Open (MEO) and we have all the details about how tickets will work for both events (incl. prices and sale dates) as well as arena locations.
