The NACL is Riot Games' path to the LCS for aspiring League of Legends players in North America, drawing 5,000 to 10,000 concurrent viewers each week.
In 2023 Loadscreen ran the qualifiers broadcast: 58 days and 290 hours, with the 100% uptime Riot requires of every broadcast partner. That earned the main broadcast for NACL Spring 2024, with a custom overlay built on Riot's esports API showing gold and XP differences, timers, plate differences and post-match charts.
