Worlds Qualifying Series raked in triple the viewers LCS did at its Summer peak
The dust has settled and the final League of Legends World Championship squad has been determined via a first-ever Worlds Qualifying Series, which was so popular it recorded three times the viewers the LCS reached during its Summer Split peak.
The maiden qualifier on Oct. 9, which acted as an LEC vs. LCS curtain-raiser for the 2023 Worlds Play-In, drew a huge online crowd for its first outing despite a truly horrid timeslot for both European and North American audiences alike.
