Hong Kong SAR, September 26, 2022 – East Asia Super League (EASL) is announcing that the season format for Season 1 of competition format is under discussion with each league to take place in a tournament format,taking into account ongoing COVID-19-related issues throughout the region.

 

EASL’s focus is on operating Season 1 of game play in a responsible manner that allows for partner leagues to carry on with their domestic leagues uninterrupted by precarious travel situations.
