Riot Games reportedly requested that all participants wear face masks during games at the 2022 League of Legends<\/a> Mid-Season Invitation, but that rule has since been reversed.<\/p>\n

The demand was made public by Evil Geniuses’ head coach Peter Dun and player Philippe “Vulcan” Laflamme. Both participants took to social media platform Twitter to break the news, pointing out how ridiculous it sounds.<\/p>\n

According to Dun, it is not in MSI’s rule book.<\/p>\n

“Found out this morning that Riot are going to insist on all teams at MSI wearing face masks on stage at the venue in Korea even during games.<\/p>\n

This is not in the rule book for MSI. Even KR and CN playoffs had players maskless during games (and you have to wear before\/after).”<\/p>\n

“On a team with multiple people who wear glasses, which will get fogged up in a high humidity studio environment, this kind of notice is absurd.
\n35 ping I’m not 100% in favor of, but I understand the logic and we were given a month to prep. But come on.”<\/p>\n
