The majority of Starladder's audience is from CIS. Maybe it wasn't the best example, because BTS is not casted in Russian, but if you bring an undoubtfully superior Korean scene to confirm your theory, it shouldn't be the deciding factor.
Hell, even with G and G-1 League Starladder coverage, have the mean numbers of the regular games (without LGD.int and the first season of G-1) scored more than 20k?
Your argument was about better teams, not about teams from different regions. I don't recall Defense Group stages having less viewers while running at the same time with D2L which agruably has better quality of play.
Chinese are owning the world in water jumping and artistic gymnastics judging from Olympic resluts, for example. Why I haven't ever even heard about broadcasts from their domestic tournaments then, not stating them gathering more viewers than the international events?

You're talking about sports that don't have a lot of viewers to begin with. Few people watch water jumping and artistic gymnastics except when they're cast in the mold of international competition, thus even fewer are willing to watch another country's water jumping and artistic gymnastics.
