Last weekend, the LCS Summer Split 2021 concluded in an epic manner with 100 Thieves making history with their very own victory. However, despite the incredible competition, the viewership hasn’t proven very impressive. Accordingly, read on as we discuss the LCS Summer Split 2021 Viewership!
LCS Summer Split 2021 Viewership – Reviewing the Years Since 2018
Indeed, the best way to compare this is to look at the past few seasons of competitive LCS. Let’s start all the way from 2018 to view this trend. Do note that all the following statistics were taken from Esports Charts.
Specifically, we’ll be taking a look at the peak viewerhip of each summer split:
- NA LCS Summer 2018 – 422,310 Peak Viewers
- LCS Summer 2019 – 494,765 Peak Viewers
- LCS Summer 2020 – 545,571 Peak Viewers
- 2021 LCS Summer 2021 – 364,238 Peak Viewers
As you can tell, there’s a clear change from 2020 to this year. Specifically, that’a 33% loss in peak viewership.
Beyond that, the community is discussing the fact that potentially, this could have been affected by the lack of a live audience to generate excitement.
Otherwise, although content, we’ll need to see stronger statistics next year for this region.
