‘Far better product’: LCS surges back to LoL success ahead of major Americas reshuffle
A first-time champion, an upset story for the ages, and a remarkable grand final that won’t be forgotten for years. If the LCS has indeed ended for good, it went out with a real bang, as stats today show a sharp uptick in viewership and fan interest following the season’s conclusion on Sept. 7.
FlyQuest’s 3-1 win over the undefeated Team Liquid saw 260,753 viewers tune in, according to Esports Charts, nearly 40,000 more than last year’s championship final between Cloud9 and NRG. It wasn’t just single-game stats that peaked, with average viewership for the split up by 23 percent compared to last year and a peak higher than that of LCS Spring, but it’s not all good news.
