Masters Toronto viewership

Why is viewership so low compared to Madrid even in such a hype game?

SEN vs PRX game had only 700k+ live concurrent viewers, meanwhile in Madrid, even group stage games like SEN vs KC and SEN vs TH had 900K+, Sen's playoff games vs LOUD and PRX had 1M+ live concurrent viewers. What caused a drop like this? If you say its a timezone issue, all 5 most watched games in Toronto are PRX games so people from APAC are not having issue. VCT feels like its growing every year but why the viewership is declining? (For the delusional fans, 300k people didnt stop watching not just because of TenZ, there are other reasons, Tenz is still costreaming)

im gonna disprove you: tenz

Japan 1:00 am

doesnt matter about delusion, there ARE gonna be 300k+ watching cuz of tenZ lol

APAC & CN contributes a lot to the numbers. I think Riot also messed up with the timings, like why is the match so early for NA? People got school & work no? Also I'm not sure if others agree but I feel numbers would do better in the morning than late 1am for us in Asia. I'd rather wake up early than stay up late.

After tenz retirement no bs, I feel like valorant has been falling off. Less ppl playing it, less viewers, even tarik who averages 25k+ viewers now is getting 10k. Idk what happened

Half the population in the world is India+China, So ig them having games at 1 am mid week is the reason

peak viewership always lower for 2nd masters idk why. usually the 1st and champs have high peaks and then the 2nd one is meh

tokyo was the lowest for the year
shanghai was the lowest for the year (all stats are without CN viewership, so viewership is probably increasing in general, just not for the west)
copenhagen wasn the lowest for the year

also madrid had the highest peak viewership of all events for valorant cause it was sen gf, maybe if sen can make it to another gf we can that peak (probably not though cause no sacy and no tenz)
