After listening to Worlds 2022 viewership was down 40 percent as a result of it takes place in North America, an inconvenient time zone for Asian and European viewers, Tyler ‘Tyler1’ Steinkamp was curious to see the way it impacted the NA League of Legends streamers too.
The amped-up streamer investigated the matter himself. He flicked via a listing of NA League streamers, together with Bobqin, Chase, and Tarzan, and observed that they had barely any viewers.
This led him to worry the worst—Worlds 2022 has additionally killed the NA League streaming scene since most individuals wish to watch the occasion.
“Did Worlds 2022 being in NA kill NA league streaming? As a result of no one will get any viewers now,” he stated.
“What the fuck is occurring? [These guys] can fucking barely afford a loaf of bread with [the amount of viewers they have]… Like, what the fuck is occurring? Did [Worlds] kill League? I feel it killed NA streaming as a result of it [leaves] a horrible time slot for NA streamers to stream—which is like 3pm to 10pm,” he added.
Based on information from TwitchTracker, Bobqin, Chase, and Tarzan had fewer common viewers in October—the month Worlds 2022 was held, in comparison with earlier months, which helps this declare.
Tyler1’s viewership has additionally dropped barely, however it’s impacted him far lower than others, given his reputation. He averaged 15,570 viewers in October, down from the 26,192 he averaged all year long.
In fact, there’s likelihood these numbers will bounce again as soon as the occasion ends on Nov. 5. So saying it has killed the scene is a little bit of a stretch— a short lived dip is probably extra becoming.
We’ll have to attend and see the way it pans out.
