The hype is real! For the first time in history, the two starting stages of a Major are played in front of a crowd. The atmosphere has been wild, and that is perhaps why the interest from the viewers at home has already been impressive.
During the Vitality vs Natus Vincere and Fnatic vs Ninjas in Pyjamas matches, the concurrent number of viewers surpassed 1 million according to Esports Charts.
