In a release for the partnership announcement, Esports Charts states that 64.6 percent of the viewers for the first season of Flashpoint were English speakers. Portuguese speakers made up 29.5 percent of the total viewership, which was presumably contributed towards by the presence of Brazilian team MIBR.

Dan Fiden, President of Cloud9 – a founding team of Flashpoint operator B Site – spoke on the deal in a release: “It’s fantastic to have Esports Charts on board to provide best-in-class viewership analytics to both our teams and our sponsorship partners. The tools and data they provide are crucial to fine tuning our operations to continually improve our content for fans.”
