Garena and Tencent have confirmed that a series of 1v1 matches will be played during the Arena of Valor International Championship (AIC 2020).
This is the second time that a 1v1 tournament will be held in the AIC, as last year’s inaugural exhibition was well-received by fans.
Buriram United Esports’ Thai mid laner Anurak “NuNu” Saengjan became the first-ever AIC 1v1 champion after beating Romanian jungler Vex from Nova Esports last year. Nunu bagged US$5,000 by winning the best-of-three match.
