MCV Staff 7th December 2016 ESports

The League of Legends world championship again broke its own viewership records by bringing in 43 million unique viewers for the final.

When SK Telecom T1 faced off against Samsung Galaxy in the grand final more than 43 million unique viewers tuned in, with a total of 14.7 million concurrent viewers at its highest point.

Throughout the entirety of worlds fans watched 370 million hours of content, which easily beats last year’s 14 million. This isn’t quite the jump that many were expecting, but the numbers are still great for Riot.

Riot also revealed that out of 1,969,087 pick’em brackets only one was correct. I blame TSM.
