Probably, the organizers were satisfied with the attendance and entourage around IEM Rio Major 2022. Nevertheless, some playoff matches of the current major, in which the FURIA team did not play, were held in half-empty stands. However, there were tons of fans in front of the arena, who, according to the community, gathered solely because of the figure of Gaules.

And yet, IEM Rio Major 2022 managed to break some records in terms of views, getting into the TOP-5 of the most popular championships in the history of the discipline.
