All stats are relative to the time of the broadcast of the finals between Flash and Movie.
- #1 watched show - 1.7% viewership rate for males of age group 13 to 29 (according to AGB Nielson Media Research) - Viewers on PotPlayer: 40,057 - Viewers on official OGN server: 23,403 - Led to server crashes - Total # of viewers: 525,000 - Approx. 8000 people attended the event live - Among the 8000, approx 3000 people had to be moved elsewhere as there was insufficient space in the Olympic Hall, where the event was held - As a result, the event was delayed by 10 minutes - On the Korean search engines, the most searched terms were 'Lee Young Ho', 'OSL Finals', 'OnGameNet' and other related terms - On Korean forums, approximately 3800 posts were made during the games
With these statistics, OGN has promised to continue upgrading their services and thanked all e-sports fans for their continued support and interest.

awesome! now how about them guys at MBC, eh?
|
|
I can't wait to be provided with upgraded sportainments.
|
Half a million? Wow. That actually seems kind of low. Are around 49 million people in South Korea (I believe?).
Either way, the OSL is awesome and it wasnt even that much of a hyped event. ESPORTS
|
That is awesome, MSL probably got the same amount of forum posts but mostly flames and threats :D.
|
500k viewers total? that seems really bad
|
man imagine MBC could have report an exact same thing maybe with even more viewership if not for the screw up
|
Didn't MBC say that there are 20 million e-sport fans? O.o
I suppose those are good numbers? (It should be expected of a sport final after all, unless there is another sport final competing)
I am pretty curious about the MBC stats. I think it may actually be higher because it was Jaedong v.s. Flash. The forum post count should DEFINITELY be higher, because of the flaming and death threats. :O
|
The viewership is relatively low to be honest. I actually prefer MSL commentary and excitement over the epicness of the OSL, but ZvZ finals and shitty work by MBC has to screw it over.

500k viewers watching a 10 year old computer game being played is in no way "bad".
|
Remember that figure is only for live. Many people might have things to attend to so they couldn't watch the game(Esp. north american fans)
|
do they have the stats for MSL finals?

(ok so not all of them were made during the games, but still :p)
|
and they said esports was dying there.
|
It's really incredible that so many people follow Starcraft
|
It was pretty fun to watch in front of my computer too.
