But this is hardly the first time Blizzard has thrown a curveball at Battlegrounds fans since the mode was released over a year ago back in November

Most of the changes made in light of the global pandemic feel like downgrades and temporary solutions, the virtual equivalent of duct tape in the world of esports. However, “art from adversity” seems to apply to CS:GO broadcasts as well, and some of the innovations seem good enough to become permanent parts of future tournaments as well once we get our long-awaited return to LAN.Triple castingLong-time CS fans may remember the awkward moment when Deman was shoved into the Anders-HenryG duo in the grand final of ESL One Cologne 2015,
