Caedrel’s 2024 LoL World Championship Co-Streams Propel His Twitch Popularity

Caedrel has established himself as one of the leading streamers on Twitch, climbing to the top echelons of this Amazon-owned platform.

Although Caedrel may not be drawing millions of viewers simultaneously or shattering records, he has amassed hundreds of thousands of viewers for each co-stream during the Worlds 2024 matches throughout the past month.

Impressively, he regularly outperforms Riot’s official streams and other prominent co-streamers such as Ibai. Caedrel’s Twitch channel has effectively become the go-to destination for League of Legends enthusiasts to catch this year’s major international event.

This achievement is even more noteworthy given that Ibai is associated with one of the competing teams and previously set Twitch records with massive streams for events like La Velada Del Año.

During the match between G2 and Bilibili Gaming, Caedrel recorded a peak viewership of over 300,000, firmly positioning himself as the top streamer on Twitch at that moment. In contrast, Kai Cenat’s highest viewership in the past month reached around 247,000.

Not only is Caedrel leading the way in League of Legends streaming, but he is also among the top overall streamers on Twitch. According to metrics from Twitch Tracker, he has dominated the platform for the past month.

Stats from Twitch Tracker

In the last month alone, Caedrel has streamed an impressive 258 hours, nearly covering all aspects of Worlds, providing analysis before and after game days, and even streaming content during off days. As Caedrel himself describes it, he’s operating at a mega pace.

There’s a noteworthy contrast between the viewer numbers on days when Worlds matches are held compared to days without. His viewer count significantly increases during match days, making Caedrel’s stream the primary avenue for many League of Legends fans to engage with the event.

The difference in viewership for the break days during Worlds 2024 is particularly apparent in the accompanying chart. Reaching nearly 30,000 viewers is impressive, but it pales compared to the hundreds of thousands tuning in on active game days.

Overall, the Worlds 2024 tournament seems poised to set new records for viewership, having already peaked at 3 million viewers. This number does not account for metrics from China, where League of Legends enjoys immense popularity.

Nevertheless, it’s essential to note that this tournament still has a way to go to reach the monumental 6.4 million peak established during the grand final of Worlds 2023, which remains the most-watched esports event in history.
