Users on iOS experienced crashes earlier today due to the Facebook SDK. Most applications using the Facebook SDK couldn’t be accessed. The issue has since been resolved, Facebook announced.

The PMWL East was supposed to begin at 7:30am CT today. Tencent said that due to the “roadblock” associated with the Facebook bug on iOS, it’s postponed the PMWL season zero tournament and broadcast by a day.
