The Eleague Boston Major created new records all around. The Major was watched by a record 1130000 concurrent viewers, a new record for a single Twitch channel. The previous record was also held by Eleague and they have only surpassed themselves. Ofcourse the concurrent viewership numbers might have had an impact on the negotiations prior to the actual tournament. Eleague and Twitch had signed an exclusivity agreement prior to the Major. This will cover the upcoming Eleague Premier as well.
Thank you so much for watching the ELEAGUE Major: Boston! Our Grand Final had more than 1,130,000 concurrent viewers, beating the all-time record for a single Twitch channel we set last year. NOICE.
