Their CN server weibo puts up 100 Champions bundle as giveaway lol

They were trending at around 4 Mil comments/posts(?) on weibo (unclear the metric that weibo uses)
Edit: afaik its Clicks&Comments, so not far from that

thats why I put the disclaimer out there, because I had no idea what metric they're using

for example "EDG goes to Finals" hashtag shows only Reading Volume, that one was around 9M which was another different metric

I mean Leo said champs peak viewership before this game was like 3.4 mil, and looking at esports charts most of that is coming from China, so it's pretty realistic. Plus when edg won worlds the peak viewership was 73m so seeing this kind of numbers when their val team go on a similar run ain't crazy.

you're only saying that because it's a chinese social media app lol. video games obviously don't have much more prestige than traditional sports in China but it's still very much up there. cultural differences exist
