LTA finals viewership could be a worrying sign for future of Americas league
The playoffs of LTA Season one concluded on Feb. 23 with Team Liquid hoisting the trophy. However, the viewership for the grand final was surprisingly low, raising concerns for the future of the new League of Legends competition.
The grand final peaked at only 168,852 online viewers, according to Esports Charts. More surprisingly, it wasn’t even the most popular series of the whole event. That title belongs to the clash between Cloud9 and LOUD in the quarterfinals, which amassed 291,301 viewers. Still, such low viewership numbers are worrying, and fans agree.
