Medias First Morning Read
Thursday August 26, 2021

Good morning! This is your weekly Esports Brief.

Riot Games’ activation blitz will hit full speed this weekend for the 2021 LCS Championship delivered by Grubhub with the company revealing a slate of unique brand partner activations. Grubhub will cook up the second annual “Feeding Frenzy,” that includes a pro-am exhibition between musical artists (Illenium and JAUZ) and League of Legend pros (Damonte) and streamers (Luxx) facing off in the Rift; as well as live concerts during each intermission plus a Blazin Challenge, featuring a Buffalo Wild Wings wing-eating contest between Nicki Taylor and VernNotice.

In addition, Honda—the official automotive partner of the LCS—will announce the results of the LCS Super Fan contest during broadcast, with the winner taking home the Honda Civic Type R Infernal Drake. Bud Light will host a social and broadcast campaign that gives fans the chance to win themed merchandise as soon as the Nexus is destroyed. Additionally, the brand is running a sweepstakes where the grand prize winner will receive the opportunity to duo with a caster. The league’s official beer is also producing a post-event Bud Light League Lounge segment. Roccat will provide premium product for the Feeding Frenzy (Vulcan TKL pro keyboards, Burst Pro mice and Elo X headsets) and LCS (Vulcan TKL Pro keyboards and Kone Pro mice) stages. Throughout the weekend, the hardware provider will also host giveaways via social segments and Phreak’s Rate My Play, as well as showcase custom co-branded art pieces in background digital displays.

Other partners fueling fandom at the Finals, include Mastercard, State Farm and Verizon. The 2021 LCS Championship begins on Saturday.

COMPETITION

Formula 1 is reporting that esports is helping the sport boost its number of active kid fans by 2.85 million in key European markets according to latest research from The Insights Family. Growth was anchored by the org’s foray’s into esports – along with other digital initiatives – to fuel a 17% year-on-year increase. The study noted that globally, 41% of kids aged 3-18 now engage with esports, a 22% increase year-on-year according to the report, and noted the success of events that include the F1 Esports Series events and Virtual Grands Prix.

Overwatch League announced that its postseason will no longer be held in LA and Dallas, due to continued uncertainty related to the pandemic. Instead, the league will now opt to return to Hawaii for postseason competition. The league stated that it could no longer be certain that all qualifying teams would be able to travel to the US, with new dates for the playoffs coming in the near future.

Meanwhile, Riot Games is officially shifting the League of Legends World Championship 2021 from China to Europe although a specific city where the tournament will take place was not named. The company pointed to “accessibility for the highest number of teams and their best players” serving as a key reason for the move, along with travel restrictions and COVID protocols due to the Delta variant becoming “even more complicated to navigate in 2021.”

Even more speakers, thought leaders, content creators, influencers, executives and brands have been added to the EBS Docket. From NFL stars to F1 powerhouses to TikTok staples, you don’t want to miss this year’s lineup. (Shhh, and it is just going to keep getting better with some MAJOR names and companies that have never addressed an esports conference before.) Time is running out – secure our lowest rates available and register before midnight tonight!

Riot also revealed that the LCS Game Changers program will take place this fall, running Sept. 27-Oct. 8 in a move toward creating a more diverse and inclusive professional League of Legends esports ecosystem. LCS Game Changers will be a fully-remote experience that will act as both training and scouting grounds for ten women who are high ELO League of Legends players. Over the course of two weeks, participants will gain access to LCS coaching, hone their skills during frequent scrims and receive advice from several guest speakers on how to advance their careers.

Overwolf and Playwire teamed up to bring the 2021 Alienware Games to gamers in the United States. Starting Aug. 27 and running for 6 weeks until Oct. 7, participants will have the opportunity to rise in rank on the challenge’s leaderboard by scoring points in League of Legends, Rainbow Six Siege, Valorant, and Fortnite. During each week, the top-ranked players for each game will win an Alienware x15 gaming laptop and proceed to the Semi-Finals. The 2021 Alienware Games will culminate in a live-broadcast finale on Oct. 23, where the top two finalists from each group will compete for the title of Alienware Games Grand Champion while pro athletes, popular influencers, and celebrities will join in for challenges.

STREAM HATCHET TRENDS

Stream Hatchet is pleased to release our latest Viewership Correlation Report. Does increased viewership of a game on live streaming platforms cause a proportional growth in players? This report aims to analyze the hypothesis through data trends of monthly average viewers and monthly active players of certain games.

Here are some key insights on one of the case studies within the report:
· Out of all the sampled games, Final Fantasy XIV Online had the strongest correlation of average viewers to average players.
· While FFXIV has had consistently low viewership in years past, hardcore fans are still tuning into streams; providing possible reasons for the correlation results.
· The trend of free-to-play games will likely skew correlations even higher since there are fewer barriers between viewing and playing.
