The Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) professional esports league reached a total of 9,2 million live hours watched,<\/strong> according to data provided by StreamHatchet<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As mentioned on superbettingsites<\/a>, this was ESL ProLeague’s 10th edition. With a total of 48 professional teams<\/strong> distributed over Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Oceania, it is no wonder that the tournament reached over 9 million fans around the globe.<\/p>\n

EPICENTER 2019, t<\/strong>he main Russian Counter-Strike: Global Offensive<\/em> esports tournament,<\/strong> came in second place, well below ProLeague, with 3,6 million live hours watched. The tournament took place in Moscow on December 17-22. DreamLeague S3 Qualifiers came in third, with 3.5 million live hours watched. The numbers show that the new league created by DreamHack, ASUS ROG<\/a> as well as Roccat<\/a>, TheGDStudio<\/a> and Swedish TV channel TV6<\/a> is not too far from the Russian competition.<\/span><\/p>\n

DreamLeague<\/span>‘s goal is to become the world\u2019s most prestigious Dota 2 league with a focus on Europe and North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
