The Esports Charts editorial team sums September up in this article. Here you will see an updated ranking of the most popular esports teams of the month. We should especially note Sentinels as it has greatly increased its audience reach since Takik has become a member of the team.
Luminosity Gaming is again the most popular esports team on Twitch in September. In the first month of Fall, its streamers accumulated 18.9 million Hours Watched (a 12% drop from August's results).

Sentinels esports team rose from ninth to second place in a month, racking up 14.2 million HW (+126%). There was a strong increase in PV (+138%) and AV (+114%).
