The EMEA Masters Winter 2025 has set a new milestone in tier-two competitive League of Legends, shattering past records and drawing massive engagement from fans and online betting enthusiasts.
EMEA Masters Hits Nearly 400K Viewers
According to Esports Charts, EMEA Masters Winter 2025 peaked at 386,905 viewers during the intense match between Papara SuperMassive and Los Ratones (LR). The content creator-led team, spearheaded by former pro Marc Robert “Caedrel” Lamont, captivated audiences worldwide.
This thrilling five-game series saw 321,340 viewers watching simultaneously. With other quarterfinal matches occurring simultaneously, the total online betting and esports audience was even larger. The match surpassed the previous record of 292,436 viewers, set during LR’s battle against Karmine Corp Blue, which featured co-streaming by Kamil “Kamet0” Kebir, the owner of Karmine Corp.
Los Ratones Drives Massive Engagement
Los Ratones has been the key factor behind this surge in viewership. The team, featuring esports influencers like Simon “Baus” Hofverberg and Martin “Rekkles” Larsson, has generated immense excitement among League of Legends and online betting communities.
Four of the five most-watched series in the tournament so far include LR, proving their influence in drawing large audiences. The only exception was the clash between Team Phantasma and Team Heretics Academy, where the Greek squad pulled off a shocking upset against the LVP representative. Now, LR will face Team Phantasma this Saturday at 17:00 CET, with the winner advancing to the final.
