Influencers were the supercharged engine behind Valorant's popularity rocket. By streaming the game, they showed off how fun and competitive it could be, basically doing the advertising for Riot. Worked like a charm since everyone wanted to jump in and try those cool moves they saw online.

Influencers? More like hype machines. Riot's use of them for Valorant was a masterstroke in marketing. Show the game being enjoyed by beloved personalities, and bam, you've got a hit.
