In the Hidden Cup casters, players, and viewers will be unaware of player identities until the tournament is completed. In an esport where it's important to have a mental edge, will players perform worse or better when identities are secret? Will those who normally feel pressure instead feel confidence in such a format? Find out on the 28th of September.
