I want to buy the 70-200 2.8 so bad, but I don't think it's worth it because the RF line will arive this year. Would you still buy it ?

It depends on what you strategy is. Are you 100% sure you stay on the RF mount, then take the RF70-200L as it will be superior to the existing ones. If you need a sort of a fallback to EF, case you dislike the performance of the R series after a while, then stick to the EF 70-200L
