EGL One Season 2 is hosted by EveSports. Back in September 2020, South African retailer Evetech announced a new tournament organizer, EveSports, a division of Evetech and T3.

In EGL One Season 1, we already saw some amazing action, with ATK Arena dominating the competition, and now, it's time for Season 2 to come to an explosive end. Here's what you need to know about the EGL One Season 2's remaining matches.
