The new season for League of Legends will start in less than a month. Even though 2021 is a year full of challenges, Riot Games and LoL can still set many new records.

The year 2021 marked the tenth Worlds in the history of the pro scene League of Legends – and it certainly was an unforgettable year.

Although Riot’s journey to Worlds 2021 presented us with a unique challenge – turning to one city tournament, Vietnam Championship Series unable to travel, and have no live audience until the Finals – putting on the best show in the safest conditions is Riot’s main goal.

The tournament broke several audience records with a total of more than one billion hours watched, according to Riot Games. It even has an average minute audience 23.04 million.

Final Worlds is also “the most watched League of Legends event in history”, reaching 45.95 million audience at the same time.
