The LEC Surpasses LCS in Playoff Hype Content for the 2019 Spring Split

The Excitement of League of Legends Playoffs

If you’ve ever watched a League of Legends playoff series, you know how thrilling it can be. The thunderous crowd, the heart-stopping plays, and the split-second decision making all contribute to some of the most exciting moments in esports.

Building Hype for the Playoffs

Before the teams head to the host cities for the playoffs, the audience is treated to hype content by Riot Games’ production team.

Europe vs. North America: Content Differences

The League community has raised concerns about the difference in quality and quantity of playoff videos between North America and Europe. Europe has a more competitive playoff scene and more interesting storylines, while North America has been somewhat disappointing this split.

Enhancing LCS Content

Despite the less fiery competition in the LCS, there are still great narratives that can be used to generate enthusiasm for the games. Individual matchups can be highlighted to hype up fans, and Riot can create excitement between teams through their players.

The LCS can also take inspiration from the LEC and incorporate comedy skits with their players and on-air personalities to build hype for the postseason.

With the potential for creating more engaging content and pushing storylines, Riot has the opportunity to make the LCS playoffs even more thrilling for viewers.

The LCS playoffs are set to begin on Saturday, March 30th, and fans can expect an electrifying experience.
