I don't think Asia has more fanbase, but the first game for example in a doable hour for Asia, and is like 9 am already for NA east coast, and trust me, they watch the games at school. So it kinda works for everyone tho

That doesn't explain the big drop in viewership. However, the 2 other games starting at around 1 and 4 respectively for us correlates to the big drop

That's what I meant, the first game is the only one that can work for everyone

Timings are not good for Asian countries to watch this tournament.

I watched the whole match And I slept at 6 AM now my sleep schedule is pretty fucked

Wdym doable, the first match literally starts at 11pm in korean/japan. The 2nd match already past midnight.
We can't stay up too late or our parents will beat us

isnt it just drops for a spray? people really want a spray tht bad lol. I'm not arguing your point, it'd just be crazy to me if they wanted a spray that bad

It probably had a lot to do with what hour were the games, all Asia was asleep during the C9 vs FNC and it was late for EU too

There are several things that go into it. I personally could care less about the spray but I cant speak for all the 13 year olds who play the game. The way r6 does drops is a lot better and drops in r6 increase viewership a lot. They give out packs and the packs can drop several items that you can actually use in game whether it be a gun skin or player skin, charms, etc. Better than a spray imo.

It's just the group stage ffs and 500k viewers is not that bad.

No its not bad but Berlin viewership did peak in the group stages. I think Champions will get over a million. It really depends on what teams.

Yeah 500k for the first day of an event means the game is so dead. Yet other games not even getting 500k for their finals and they’re not dead?

not saying the game is dead. the viewership compared to Iceland has only gone down. Iceland popped off for many reasons so its expected but Berlin peak viewership peaked during the group stage. The finals had 600k viewers. Not that any of it matters but Valorant is a game where it gets views on two things. Watch parties and what teams are playing. Sentinels bring the highest viewership. I think Sentinels Vs Liquid will bring in the best numbers.

That's every esport tbh

Look at the CS:GO major that just finished. No way do they hit 2.3 mil in the finals if it isn't NAVI, G2, and the greatest player ever trying to get his first major

2.7 million but yeah. If it was Navi vs Liquid it would have been the best for viewership.
Navi = CIS, bunch of s1mple fans
Liquid = All of NA and BR with Fallen
Put Europe in there who fans of either team/bettors
And people who just watch just to watch.

That niko whiff though was hard to watch. Felt bad.

main reason I think is timing in iceland every region had comfortable timing plus first LAN, and for now the timings are pretty bad because of daylight saving time.

smh wait till the end. Ofc drops + first match hype would drag more viewership. I'm just waiting to see if the numbers increase from M3. And also, SEN v TL match will have some good numbers, both orgs with great fanbase behind.

The first match peaked the highest because ppl were hyped to see how champions look like. The real test will be sentinels match, if that match don’t get 800k+ , i don’t think champions will have more than 1.2m peak unless they do skin drops

SEN vs any EU team will have peak viewers irrespective in what stage it will be played.
If it's Grand Final, you can expect 1.5M peak

i mean as expected since watching 1 hour to get a drop and then boom viewership drop instead of increasing. looking at the views stats again tell me that Vision Strikers is like NAVI in CS for in term of views atm

also kinda sad that out of 3 game series the closest series and most epic game has the least viewers and the most stomped game has peak viewers .

Sad that the KRÜ vs TL game has passed to the last of the day, if it was the second as planned it would have been great because first that TL is one of the teams with the most fanpage, secondly, at that time there would be more Asians who are the ones who more public have, to all this added the buff of the Kün co-stream, surely it would been one of the most viewed
