There might not be a single sports league on the planet whose fans care about viewership numbers as much as the LCS’. And with the 2023 Spring Split in the books, it’s now official: the LCS’ average and peak viewership numbers had another dropoff. Fans are now allowed to drop all of their hot takes.
This Spring Split, the LCS’ viewership numbers both dropped in comparison to last summer, with the split-wide average falling to a mark of just over 109,000. The league’s best day came, as expected, during yesterday’s grand final match between Cloud9 and Golden Guardians, when 271,000 viewers tuned in at its peak, according to esports viewership stats site Esports Charts. The finals have been reliable for a split’s peak throughout the LCS’ history: The last time a split’s peak viewership came outside of a final match was in the 2020 Spring Split.
