Which organization won the 2020 League of Legends Mid-Season Cup?
Answer
Top Esports
Top Esports won the 2020 League of Legends Mid-Season Cup. The Chinese LPL team defeated South Korea’s FunPlus Phoenix in the final, winning the online cross-regional event during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Mid-Season Cup was created as a substitute for the 2020 Mid-Season Invitational, which was canceled because of the pandemic. It brought together leading teams from the LPL and South Korea’s LCK, producing a high-level comparison between the two strongest League regions of that period.
Top Esports’ victory is sometimes confused with its later domestic and international results. The Mid-Season Cup was a one-off event rather than a permanent replacement for the Mid-Season Invitational. It also did not determine the 2020 League of Legends world champion; that year’s Worlds title went to DAMWON Gaming, which defeated Suning in the final.
