Tencent owns 11% of Reddit...

[–] Bronzebeard@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

And? 11% isn't full ownership like the thing I said.

More likely they would leave the market. That game isn’t really popular in NA but it’s the most popular non-mobile game in Asia

LoL isn't popular in NA anymore?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca -1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Never was that popular

COD and Fortnite are much bigger with the latter even making sports radio talk

The popularity spike was when MLG needed to fill in the Halo Reach spot due to that game’s lack of appeal

What? League is consistently the top result of twitch. Even accounting for other regions, league is by far one of the largest games people watch in na. Big na streamers pull in thousands of viewers (doublelift, tyler1 for example)
