Are less people watching LCS than in previous years?
Is it just me of there is a big disparity than in previous years? It feels like there are less people on the streams ._.

Less people as in on the stream or at the actual event? I mean if anything most people don't watch things like LCS or the other small events live. They usually just wait for the VoDs. It's Worlds that most people actually care about!
The streams have been split is the main thing, one stream is streaming h2k vs roccat, another is streaming OG vs G2
Also, its EU LCS. And, its split. And, for a lot of people Twitch has just been being bad lately. I know I had to watch MSI on Youtube. So, I just watch it there all the time now.
I don't watch the streams on twitch because I do stuff every now and then in my house ( dishes, Laundry, etc) so I pause the video but sometimes when I pause the video, and come back to resume it goes right to live and I miss what ever amount that I was gone.
I also get tired of watching plays and seeing the annoying chat say ( NA flash- NA > EU - etc) its annoying. I watch the games on youtube as I can just pause the video and not see the annoying chat.
As for the less people I'm sure League is still growing in # of Viewers and people who still play this game but its been the same script for 4-5 years now. Watch 9-10 weeks of Western Teams play and eventually lose to Korea 24/7.
Similar to the NBA why watch it knowing that it will just be the same Player on the team going to the finals year in and year out.
