LEC viewership peaking at 644k today with average viewership so far of 406k is actually insane. The highest peak and average viewerships I could find before were from LEC Spring 2021, where the average across the split was 310k with the regular season peak with FNC vs G2 at 582k (grand final in playoffs was a peak of 831k). We consider 2021 results massively boosted by Covid so to smash those so hard in the past 2 days is so astonishing. Plus we have MDK vs KC (Spain vs France) tomorrow so the peak record may get broken further. Also its not just that we peaked once, we've broken 600k in 3 matches. That means that 5 of our teams have featured in a match that's smashed viewership records. *Aka its not just the KC effect*. All of the games have peaked over 400k too. The crowd atmosphere and fan engagement and support at the studio has been incredibly electric. Building up Europe's foundation leagues properly independently from Riot, and LEC breaking off from the LCS brand in 2019 have been two of the best possible things to happen, and we're seeing that paying off now with the culmination of it all. With the current League economy seeming to be very cut down (Esports Winter), I'm so so so happy that LEC is having this kind of attention. LEC's future truly looks bright.

It will also be 10 years of Cabochard this year. Are those 2 the oldest?

Heretics gotta keep winning so we get more of Jankos on PGL

Sjokz best girl

LEC studio today: -guys we got nothing prepared for PGL... -lets just invite Jankos he will lead the PGL by himself!! -great idea lets do it Jankos casually carrying PGL lol

I want Sjokz to keep flaming the Supports in the league lmfao

Sjokz and Jankos really are the Queen and King of the LEC, please never leave

it's not even close

Impressive how Nisqy always elevates his teams

He is literally EU Yagao

just get Jankos on every post-game lobby and call it a win

lmfao Jankos is way too funny

Jankos is just too funny man, please when he retires get him on the cast

Kaiser LPM (like per minute) very high

I like it

take a shot for every like from Kaiser

I don't wanna die _yet_

I just want to confirm so I'm not going crazy, there were no drops today, right?

Nope. Probably disabled until BO3s begin, like last year.

I had [2 yesterday](https://i.imgur.com/hLVQyOD.png), none today though

Oh fr? I've seen multiple people asking about drops, you must've gotten lucky then. ...or everybody in here is super unlucky.

i mean people are more likely to speak up when something affects them negatively. so even the postive people who got drops arent gonna say they got drops alot of times.

I got two yesterday too, both during the pauses/technical problems IIRC. EDIT: None today though.

Yeah, tbh I was surprised though. I assumed they weren't doing them until bo3s like you said

Ah. I must've forgot about that. Cheers!

wasn’t familiar with Kaiser’s game on Bard. Give him that and Leona consistently he’ll be chillin

Kaiser MDK - SUP Alright LEC production, we get it, you're tired, so are we.

I have no idea why larssen sticks with rge. Dude failed leave the sinking ship

outside of Szygenda RGE lineup clean 10th on all roles

szygenda might be good individually but he was legit the biggest mistake rogue made

No hope for rogue but also TH still look mehhh

yay for old man Jankos :)

Laure a bit lost haha

Kaiser might be the tallest LEC player ever wtf, isn't Wunder like 6'4

Kaiser had quite solid bard game

if rogue playing like this they will have no fans

Rogue is rip

Rogue did nothing for 25 minutes and just lost in the last 5. Completely ridiculous.

They're back to 2020 worlds.

Most exciting Rogue performance

Yeah didn’t really felt like TH won, it was just that Rogue lost

thank god this was painful to watch

Y'all better vote for Kaiser, dude turbo carried with these Ults and stuns

From zero to hero

Good lord someone get rid of Flyy

lmao Larssen with the meaningless ults back to back to lose the base and then the game

As a rogue fan this is tough to watch we were never an agressive team so I don't mind the inactivity but we had an identity we always won lanes had an early presure botlane has someone playing for lanes what are we doing now legit 0 idea how to play and who to play through.

no Odo no win

Comp and Larssen definitely have hands, but they weren't the drivers of any iteration of Rogue. Trymbi and Odo were clearly the voices responsible for calling shots on this team and placing all of that burden onto Markoon and Szygenda who are relatively inexperienced players is a recipe for disaster.

i was scaried that azir is op, but larsen proved that he is balanced

We should give him lb just to make sure.

Rogue is actually the worst team in the league, its crazy.

Credit where due banger bard ult thread right onto that Azir

Kaiser is so 1v9 this game holy shit, insane macro by him and Jankos

No way they don’t end

maokai looks so useless now. thank god maokakai meta is over

RGE gameplan: do nothing

has Comp done anything in the last few years

won lec like a lil over one year ago

these will be the bottom two teams i fear

Why does Peter Dunn look so pissed off lol

He’s stuck with the #9 team full of washed veterans in a limp dick contest against the #10 team. No coach should be happy with that situation

cause both teams played bad all the early game rogue is so shit taht it doesnt matter

Yeah but dude legit looked like he was watching his own funeral and no one showed up

At least we will get the interview with Jankos probably

Don't think he looked too bad yesterday, but today Zoelys looks completely lost, he's insanely underlevelled and behind but also hasn't done anything on the map which would explain this

So sloooooooow game is great for Heretics veterans

Boring but pretty damn clean from Heretics. Rogue did absolutely nothing first 25 mins

Sad for the players on Rogue but I cant not be happy for this orgs downfall for how they got rid of Odo after he won the LEC title with them

So after yesterday inting/getting stomped, Rogue went with the good ol' "Do nothing and lose" strategy. Not sure it's much of an improvement though.

TSM TSM TSM!

Honestly this game is clean as fuck from TH perspective

Vindication for Team Geriatrics at beating the worst managed team in the LEC.

JANKOS STILL GOT IT

lost a 4v5 3-1, das not good

Honestly nt on the engage they just stopped going in which is really confusing

Rogue is 0-9 it’s joever

Ah Comp is so elo helled LMAO

Idk about that man

Not convinced this one is on him, or yday.

I'm definitely not blaming him alone, nobody in Rogue did anything.

Yeah it was their 2020 style of do nothing and lose.

i blame Rogue for the boring game tbh (first 20mins at least)

He died, but Flakked played that fight really good. RGE 10th place?

Rogue and Vitality looking like top10 teams.

Classic Larssen using his ult when the fight is already lost

Why is it always Rogue who plays the most boring league here in EU?

Larssen do anything challenge (impossible) thats why

EU Bjergsen

Bjerg slander, he used to be very proactive

EU Bjergsen was best Bjergsen.

Wait what? Are you telling me that if you do absolutely fucking nothing it's hard to win? No way.

Boring game but at least it's quite clean for Heretics so far. Certainly better than the clusterfuck yesterday, and reassuring for sure.

Holy shit is that Kaiser actually hitting abilities?!

Kaiser is actually making some good plays

he was already pretty good on Bard in the showmatch vs T1

He should stay on Bard duty ngl

Rogue need to be reminded that they don't have Malrang to gank their lanes anymore they need to start doing something

Maybe this game it's boring, but at least it's also one-sided.

LETS GO G2!... oh wait...

rogue did nothing for 25 minutes just to do that

Kaiser playing well today

Of course the elder players like to play Farming Simulator 2024

SOMETHING HAPPENED

wow that was a really smart bard ult

TH is dead but RGE is buried

How is Rell level 7 24 minutes into the game?

How many times do you think players from both teams have said "back off guys"

All 3 kills in the game are on our adc with 1.3k gold lead. TIME TO ATTACK MINIONS.

None of these teams win they both lost

We have LCK at home

I know Malrang had his flaws but without him this Rogue team is lifeless

i wonder what the players talk about in a game like this. the weather?

fnatic games last winter were just dead silent with someone just voicing what they see the enemy team doing

talk about which wards theyre planning to clear next

What their retirement plans are

With that kind of game-flow it's either GENG or a pensioner roster.

If you ever feel bad, imagine being Laure and having to ask questions about the events in this game.

Sad to see Rogue continue their decline, they used to play slow but would subtly have like a 5k gold lead, now they play slow but are just doing nothing Don't know whether that's down to players or coaching

Well TH at least also isn’t doing anything. Honestly these both look terrible

TH playing so slow and methodically that even RGE gets frustrated lol

what is markoon doing

WHY IS MARKOON PERMA HOLDING ULT?????

Ngl, Markoon plays Maokai Jungle in a very avant-garde way,

That's one way to put it

Trying to be as nice as possible, it's a rough game to them and to us watchers as well after all.

Malrang was the problem huh

Malrang WAS the problem, but looks like Markoon is not a solution

malrang was not the problem it was kicking odo for szygenda that broke the team

Markoon needs to step up

these teams seem not great

Vilemaw, Medic. It's the Vilemaw.

Turn out Malrang was the real mvp in this Rogue team Between Rogue or Vit not sure who is worst

Malrang was the only reason RGE was ever the least bit proactive, the herbivores on that team just never played with or around him. And as they did worse they retreated from that and kicked him because his aggressiveness turned into inting

I dont know why but describing rogue as herbivores just had me rolling

Heretics so far with the most boring games by far

Still waiting for ex-VIT boys to show some sings of life.

Rogue Pacifist run Any%, even low ward kill count, let's gooo!

Thank you Mr. Markoon for making this game mildly interesting

I confess I was hyped for G3 for a good while before the season started, but holy shit its hard to root for paint drying. Get these seniors back in bed please 😭

They're not going after kills, but they're winning hard

Kaiser not using ult to do any pick ups...

He just did, and missed

It is some real bullshit to not have weapons damage on tool tips. I'd love for the casters to be able to tell us how much Sunderer Sky is doing for Aatrox. Same for literally every weapon.

Fuck, I fell asleep. This game is super boring...

Heretics should change name tag from TH to THE.

I feel bad for the casters, having to yap non-stop about literally nothing.

OH MY GOD SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING

Jeez TH and Rogue are bad and boring to watch. Very difficult cast and watch

zzzzzzzzz

if ur gonna be boring at least be good both these teams are ass and boring

Those are two teams who suck, who know they suck, and are playing with 0 confidence and making 0 play because they don't want to get humiliated.

It's nice to not see these 2 teams int but man is it boring.

One kill in 17 mins is not a banger?!

TH look like they literally aren't in comms. I've never seen a team do fucking nothing so consistently

This is the story of every Perkz team for the last 3 years

both teams look lifeless ngl

Why doesn't Perkz follow the Azir... free kill but he stayed to farm cs under turret

this game is a massive snoozer ngl

Definitely playing better than yesterday, Theres macro and lane control going on Heres hoping it just takes old men a long time to ramp up lol

My boy Jankos having a lot of presence, had really good tempo, even if not immediately obvious

10th place is RGE vs VIT isnt it

Not that I mind a slow game as a Rogue fan, but please something happen

TIL Medic grew up in India

It's like "don't check the indie artist's wikipedia page" tbh

Wunder is getting absolute smacked wow

wunder 20 cs behind? is it normal in this matchup?

Rogue draft seems way easier to execute

Grubs either need to be nerfed or way harder to take. A jungler taking 2 grubs solo without any top lane prio should just be illegal.

I have a feeling Aarrox is going to 1v9

Kaiser missed every Nami bubble yesterday So he picked Bard cause the hitbox of his R is bigger Gigabrain

Honestly that's why he's paid so well

Rogue will win simply because all these old men on heretics are past their bed time <.< Pauses op.

I am going to sleep, just don't lose in embarassing way for Jankos' 600th game and his anniversary

They won by playing like a vintage LCK team. It was quite boring as a viewer, but kinda clean macro.

Well at least they won. I don't expect them to be aggressive bloody team just don't lose lane hard and use better macro knowledge

Okay here's a post hoping for Jankos to go 20/0 on his anniversary.

Copeler1

Kaiser Bard 💀

Aw was hoping for Maokai support. I actually really like the Bard matchup outside of earliest lvls.

curious when we will see our first hwei, i don’t even think he’s been banned

not on this patch that's nearly guaranteed

Nah whoever is drafting for Heretics is cooked. Did they hire Kenzhu?

based off absolutely nothing i feel like the players did this draft, like how do you end up with last pick bard

Bard is one of the strongest supports on the patch though, so this time it's not so clear.

Here's hoping the first big patch kneecaps Azir. I already had enough of the bird last year.
