One of the specialties of tournaments in the LPL region is the extremely large number of viewers.
Sad signs are still hanging over the LPL tournament

The highest number of viewers in the highlight match against TES was only about 544 thousand
According to analysis from Sohu site, the failure of the LPL region before T1 at Worlds 2023 is the big reason leading to this alarming situation.
T1’s victory over a series of LPL teams at Worlds 2023 has caused the excitement from the audience in this region to decrease significantly.
Indeed, the second half of the 2023 season is an extremely difficult time for the LPL region.
It is important to know that T1 defeated all 4 LPL representatives on the journey to winning the 2023 World Championship.
Furthermore, the fact that famous players like Uzi or TheShy are retiring also affects the attractiveness of LPL Spring 2024. The reason comes from the fact that they are all players with a lot of fans and are very attractive.
In addition, the absence of `view-catching` players like TheShy and Uzi also makes LPL Spring 2024 much less attractive.
To improve this, the only way for LPL teams is to make great efforts to achieve high results at international tournaments.
