Tyler1 has consistently been one of the most controversial figures in the League of Legends community. From toxic early years and permabans to becoming one of the most popular streamers in the world, the 29-year-old is now part of the LCS co-stream team—and the community has plenty to say about it.
TYLER1: OFFICIAL LCS CO-STREAMER
Riot Games announced that Tyler1 would be co-streaming the 2024 LCS Summer Split starting in week six, much to the delight of his fanbase. The popular content creator has made appearances in several Riot broadcasts before, but after further debate surrounding the LCS and its ailing viewership, this might be just what the league needs.

Compared to other leagues around the world, the LCS has struggled to maintain a consistent average viewership. The league currently has a concurrent average of around 80,000 viewers on a given match day, which places it behind several other sister leagues such as the LEC, LCK, and CBLOL.
