The 2020 New York Excelsior season was the third season of New York Excelsior's (NYXL) existence in the Overwatch League and their first under head coach Jeong "imt" Yong-cheol. New York planned to host two homestand weekends in the 2020 season at the Hammerstein Ballroom in the Manhattan Center.[1] While the first homestand took place, all other homestand events were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Preceding offseason

Organizational changes

On October 21, 2019, New York parted ways with head coach Ty "Pavane" Hyun-sang, as he joined the London Spitfire as an assistant coach. Pavane had been with the team since its inception and led them to a 56–12 regular season record over his career with the team.[2] In his replacement, New York promoted assistant coach Jeong "imt" Yong-cheol as their new head coach on November 19.[3] On December 1, NYXL signed former Seoul Dynasty assistant coach Lee "WhyNot" Ju-hyub as an assistant coach.[4]

Roster changes

The Excelsior enter the new season with one free agents, one players which they have the option to retain for another year, and seven players under contract.[5] The OWL's deadline to exercise a team option is November 11, after which any players not retained will become a free agent. Free agency officially began on October 7.[6]

NYXL's first offseason acquisition was on February 15, when the team announced the signing of former Guangzhou Charge off-tank Choi "HOTBA" Hong-jun.[7] The following week, the team promoted off-tank Kim "BiaNcA" Dong-wook from their academy team, XL2 Academy.[8] On November 26, New York signed support player Kim "Mandu" Chan-hee from Korean Contenders team O2 Blast.[9] The following week, on December 4, the team signed DPS player Lee "WhoRU" Seung-joon from Fusion University.[10]
