\nIn what is arguably the greatest series in League of Legends<\/a> history, the grand final between DRX and T1 has created a new record. The 2022 World Championship match-up, which was held at the capacity-packed Chase Center, California, on November 6, hit the highest peak viewership, thereby breaking its own record.<\/p>\n

Owing to the rivalry between the two Korean franchises, the grand finals was predicted to be one for the history books, and it was just that and more. The excitement led to a massive turnout on various streaming platforms and channels, as the filled 18,000-capacity venue was the first clue to what was going to be a new record.<\/p>\n

Having gathered all data from the tournament finals, Esports Charts has revealed that the LCK-based finals at the 2022 World Championship amassed a peak viewership of slightly more than 5 million people.<\/p>\n
