The sparking showdown pitted two popular fan-favorites against one another: top MLBB club RRQ Hoshi from Indonesia and Malaysia’s reigning powerhouse side, Selangor Red Giants. With RRQ as a presence, it was little wonder that ratings soared. Their global appeal ensured a big turn-out — and this was just another occasion to present evidence for it.

For Selangor Red Giants Esports, this wasn’t just a big match, it was their most-watched game ever, thanks in part to the sheer interest RRQ brings wherever they go. Hitting over 3 million peak viewers is no small feat, and it’s a milestone that underlines how fast the mobile MOBA scene is growing.

This record-breaking viewership stat was tracked by Esports Charts, which monitors live viewing data across multiple platforms.
