@News After reviewing all possible options together with Twitch, we have agreed that the best solution is to extend the SaS campaign and launch it immediately after the conclusion of the regular Drops campaign.

The campaign will start on November 29, 11:30 AM GMT / 6:30 AM EST, and will end on December 20, 11:30 AM GMT / 6:30 AM EST. For more details check:
