ESL One Cologne 2020 Final Placements: Results in all regions

ESL One Cologne trophy and logoESL

All four regions of ESL One Cologne have now wrapped up, as Heroic became surprise winners on the EU division by taking down Team Vitality in the Grand Final.

Outside of CS:GO Majors, no other event drums up the anticipation and prestige of ESL One Cologne. Always a highlight of the year, things will have to be different in 2020, due to ongoing global circumstances.

Because all matches will be played online, the event was split into four regions: North America, Europe, Asia and Oceania. The prize money was also divided among the regions, though not evenly, as regions with more teams have a greater share.
