Besides ESL One Cologne being a LAN tournament, we can read that ESL Pro League: Season 14 Malta, Intel Extreme Masters Fall will also be arranged in a studio, behind closed doors. <\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The real update to esports events is about to happen by the end of the year, as according to the new Pro Tour plans, IEM Winter will be organized as a live event with an audience in attendance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/9UGqk8noPUbxSAsZ9VP2chzAS-IzuoS8Q3WkajLiuB8\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly9saDYuZ29vZ2xldXNlcmNvbnRlbnQuY29tLzB2LVhUWWNVMXJjZFJDM3BVczRJSm9jZlEwajJ6dmhfSFY1MUQ1M1BZS1BodnRyb2RVQUt4VmMyN1R6TXI3VzZNcjZzRENKZUVtUEE4U1NEZWM5U1djLUtta2VSZ0FsV0RYNVl5NkZzMUZVSUVmcWhtMUhYNjQ5cGxVQThDUW1iMEtWaFZHY2U\" width=\"602\" height=\"320\" alt=\"0v-XTYcU1rcdRC3pUs4IJocfQ0j2zvh_HV51D53PYKPhvtrodUAKxVc27TzMr7W6Mr6sDCJeEmPA8SSDec9SWc-KmkeRgAlWDX5Yy6Fs1FUIEfqhm1HX649plUA8CQmb0KVhVGce\" loading=\"lazy\"><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">(Picture: ESL)<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">On the other hand, ESL notes that further changes are on the table, depending on the global situation with the pandemic. &ldquo;We will continue to monitor the ongoing situation and provide additional quarterly updates to further inform everyone as to what the calendar will look like for the remainder of the year&rdquo; the statement follows.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/cs-go\/valve-ends-lifetime-vac-bans-for-csgo-majors-five-year-term-imposed\">Valve ends lifetime VAC bans for CSGO majors, five-year term imposed<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This means that this year&rsquo;s ESL One Cologne won&rsquo;t happen at the iconic LANXESS Arena.
