We have a cavalcade of tournaments upon us this week, both major and minor. Between League of Legends' biggest tournament wrapping up, to Dota 2's Boston Major entering its early stages, a bunch of Blizzard games having their pre-Blizzcon runups, and couple of major fighting game events, you should have more than enough to watch this weekend.
You can expect record-breaking viewership numbers for this year's League of Legends Worlds Final, which culminates a month of ridiculously intense competition in the world's biggest eSport. (Stream / Schedule)
As one major MOBA tournament sees its conclusion, another began this week. The Dota 2 Boston Major is having its regional qualifiers this week. Watch teams from the Americas, Europe, China, and Southeast Asia compete to move on to the next stage of the tournament, which will take place in (you guessed) Boston. (Stream Hub / Schedule)
We also have what could be the start of Overwatch's biggest tournament yet this weekend: The Overwatch World Cup. The initial group stages, which will determine which teams will face off next week at Blizzcon, will be going on all weekend. (Stream / Schedule)
