The International 10 Qualifiers for Europe & CIS Are Most Viewed

The portal that maintains various statistics in the field of esports, Esports Charts, said that Dota 2 viewers prefer teams from the region of Western and Eastern Europe. The teams of these particular divisions have the greatest support and the most impressive views.

On average, over 216,000 spectators watched the meetings of the Western European teams. The final of the lower bracket with the participation of OG and Nigma became the most watched and collected 546,000 on the screens at the peak and it is no wonder, because in this match it was determined which of The International champions will miss the next competition from the TI series: KuroKy, who did not miss a single The International and The International Champion 2017 or OG, a TI8 and TI9 victorious team that is about to retire after participating in TI10. As a result, we recall that OG became the winners in that fight and in the final of the qualifier they fought their last opponents and became the last participant in The International. Returning to the topic of statistics, let's say that the qualifying round for the CIS teams was watched by an average of 109,000 spectators. The final match between Team Empire and Team Spirit, as expected, became the most watched. There Spirit defeated their opponents 3-2 and advanced to The International 10. At its peak, this fight was able to gather 222,000+ viewers at the same time.

Qualifications for the tenth championship of The International series were held from June 23 to July 10 online. In each of the six divisions, the organizers competed for 1 invitation.
