viewership is a concern

This might be the worst tournament in terms of viewership. We haven't even cracked 700k yet.

This shows that you cannot just completely ignore 3 entire continents. Those being your biggest ones in terms of viewership 👎🏻

Whatever riot , learn from your mistakes next time.

Rito small indie company btw

The games are at midnight for NA east coast and Brazil and at 5 am in EU, ofc its gonna take a hit

happens when the only brazil team get eliminated instantly

W crowd, best experience for all the players, casters and backstage staff....no funny food poisoning issues, beautiful location....best masters event ever....riot will come back again

Bro copied my post pussy

Also I speak for all indians when I say we are OK with staying up late till 5 Am to watch banger games.

Idk The crowd in Japan was awesome to see casters were good and also according to many players this was their best crowd experience so far. I do understand internet viewership would be low considering 2 continents can't see due to time probs but still I feel it's a really good tourney

Brazil is not watching

I believe there's more people affected by this tourney's time zone compared to when it's in America or Europe. Champions should do much better. Even then, I'd say its doing good, especially the crowd.

That is because of the timezones
Rito should hold an event in sydney the next time

Riot didn't ignore the three other continents. They deliberately chose Tokyo as a way of giving back to the Japanese fans. Leo Faria, head of VALORANT esports already said it.

At this point it is safe to say they won't care that much on online viewership and in my opinion is great because that's how you market VALORANT to a diverse audience.

next time riot should just stop the planet's rotation

this masters makes me sad, i really want to watch the games but i want to sleep too. waking up at 4 am to watch some folks play and barely hear the crowd feel sad. i understand that they want to make pacific fans happy, but this schedule is not it, and also the viewership is so much lower than the other masters and i cant imagine the sponsors are happy with that.

online viewership is less but live crowd is way better than any of the past tournaments.
