How long till S20 ends?

this season (20) to end the Friday prior, June 5th

Seasons don’t end on Fridays. They start on Fridays and end on Sundays. So if that’s the week S20 ends, it’d end on Sunday the 7th. Blizzard have also said they will leave over a week from patching live before a new season starts…

@Nevalistis

We decided the compromise was to have at least one week downtime between patch deployment and season start. That gives us a more forgiving window to address critical issues, should they arise, and we plan to continue using this format moving forward to ensure we’re launching each Season in as strong and stable a state as possible. It also allows us to provide a more reliable Season start date going forward.

So, if S20 ended on Sunday the 7th, and the patch happened on Tuesday the 9th, S21 would start Friday the 19th, not the 12th.
