The Invitational League of Legends is the most recent event that has been delayed because of the coronavirus.
John Needham, Riot’s global esports leader, addressed the ongoing threat to travellers of the virus, in a statement on Twitter.
“While we remain committed to making the event happen, the health and safety of players and fans come first and foremost, with the integrity of the competition a close second.” He then expressed his thanks to the fans for their patience and said that after this event he will keep everybody up to date with new information.
Surprisingly, many of the update responses were negative and fans observed sarcastically that Riot essentially updated it without any updated information.
