On October 29, K/DA and Seraphine appeared on the official cover of fashion magazine Dazed's China November issue in Louis Vuitton.

## Live performance

In September, it was reported that K/DA would perform at the opening ceremony of the 2020 League of Legends World Championship Finals.

The stage would incorporate Unreal Engine 5, modified by Possible Productions, and Lux Machina and would have over 40 VR and AR techs and artists. David Higdon, Head of Global Esports Communications at Riot Games said, "It's the most advanced mixed reality rendering system in the world, which will render in real-time at 32K resolution and 60 FPS. It’s pretty mind-blowing. Worlds 2020 is going to be unlike anything you've seen before."
On October 31, K/DA performed "More" at Pudong Football Stadium, Shanghai, China as the opening ceremony of the 10th anniversary of League of Legends World Championship and the finals between Damwon Gaming and Suning. Due to travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, only Lexie Liu was able to perform live on stage with the virtual K/DA. The group performed for the crowd of 6,000 fans in attendance. "More" was choreographed by The Kinjaz, who is best known for being the runners-up eight season of MTV's America's Best Dance Crew.
