2022 the call, 2024 still here, 2025 bite marks, 2026 salvation.
@Darin9837@namisylee@LeBlackbigo blg winning worlds might save lol in china in the future
dota is pretty much dead in cn, mobile moba like hok and pc/mobile shooters like valm,cf,delta,pubgm,etc is dominating the cn market rn + ofc gatcha games
@BEEK4E if im not mistaken the dude that usually does the trailers are in vct this yr (the vct finals teaser and opening are hype asf compare to lol this yr)
@Sc0tt_12@Nieuwbie@G2Cavillerine@PolymarketLoL the only profitable part of worlds sponsorship wise is always the semis and finals
and riot other than skin sales dont actually make money in esports/worlds cause theres no TV money similar to trad sports (no espn, apple tv, fox, skysports, etc kind of tv money)
@I_Am_Orion@JakeSucky EG actually was supposed to shutdown yrs ago like 2023-24 cause of there CEO/management
but did not shutdown cause they cant break the contract that they have in VCT and VCT pretty much giving them millions a yr to survive during there remaining yrs as a VCT partner org
@Hian_alexa @ManDoElls@EsportsCharts@invgaming@GenG tbf its in NA the timezon is so bad for asian bros
still tho 1.6m day 1 is still big compare to other esports on where this is grand final viewership numbers (cs,val,dota,etc)
@jimherry310@heskethh2 also esports wise tencent keeping it cn only for like 10yrs straight also helped keeping the cn audience since its only CN teams winning all the time
(it kinda made it the superbowl of china hok is big there in cn but has a small market/fanbase outside of cn)
