First up, let& #39;s look at the most mentioned competitors in the @CODLeague year-to-date.

Probably coming as no surprise to most, the entire starting roster of the @Huntsmen have secured the top 5 spots
The @Huntsmen also take the #1 spot amongst the teams in the @CODLeague, which is a testament to the explosive fandom the team has seen so far
Switching over to the @OverwatchLeague, here& #39;s the most talked about players in the league YTD. Unlike the CDL ranking, we& #39;ve got players from a variety of teams on the list.
Players from the @NYXL took the #1 & #2 spot on the previous list, so it should come as no surpise that the team is also the most talked about in the @OverwatchLeague
Next, let& #39;s check out the rankings for the LCS & LEC. Here& #39;s the most talked about players in the @LCSOfficial YTD.
And thanks in part to their dominant 12-0 run, @Cloud9 is the most talked about team in the @LCSOfficial
Hopping over the pond, let& #39;s take a look at the rankings for the @LEC, and the most talked about players YTD. @G2Esports takes 3/5 of the spots to continue their domination of the charts https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙌🏽" title="Raising hands (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Raising hands (medium skin tone)">
Fun fact: The team with the most talked about player is also the most talked about team for their respective league/event, and @G2Esports continues that trend with the @LEC
Taking a quick look back at the action from last weekend, here& #39;s some of insights from @IEM Katowice, starting off with the most talked about Teams.
It should come as no surprise that @S1mpleO was the most talked about player from the event, along with the fact that the rest of the list consists of players who made the finals
Speaking to the global nature of @IEM, here& #39;s the countries that were Tweeting about the event the most. It& #39;s so impressive to see countries from almost every continent being a part of the list!
To wrap up this month& #39;s insights, let& #39;s take a look at everyone& #39;s favorite topic. Congrats to @G2Esports for kicking 2020 off in the #1 spot, and shoutout to @Huntsmen & @paiNGamingBR for their introduction to the list!
Thanks to everyone for following along with this month& #39;s insights thread; 2020 is only just starting, so there& #39;s plenty more in store for us to dig into this year!

As always, please let @zchmz & I know if there& #39;s anything else you& #39;d like to see.

See you in April!

Due to the COVID-19 quarantine, people are spending more time than ever playing (& tweeting) about video games. The graph below shows just how much the global gaming conversation has exploded, specifically in the past couple weeks that we& #39;ve all been staying home https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤯" title="Exploding head" aria-label="Emoji: Exploding head">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire">

Much of the massive conversation growth is in part to the release of our new #1 game, @animalcrossing https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire">

Fun Fact: The conversation volume around Animal Crossing is more than 2x that of the #2 game, @fgoproject https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤯" title="Exploding head" aria-label="Emoji: Exploding head">
Taking a look more recently, you can also see how the release of DOOM & Warzone have impacted the rankings in the US. It& #39;s also impressive to see talk of Nintendo remastering classic Mario titles drive that title so high up the chart.
The launch of @animalcrossing was truly a global phenomenon, with fans around the world coming to Twitter to share their favorite clips, memes, and more. Here are the countries tweeting about the game the most.
Switching over to esports, the conversation is bigger than ever, but is also evolving to the current climate. Esports teams in particular have started to produce more and more messages to fans during these tough times.
Through innovative content, & leagues starting back up, there& #39;s been quite a few shifts in our esports team rankings recently. @FaZeClan is back on top, & we have new entrants like @T1 & @Luminosity https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="📈" title="Chart with upwards trend" aria-label="Emoji: Chart with upwards trend">

With the current climate, the rankings are more volatile than ever https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤯" title="Exploding head" aria-label="Emoji: Exploding head">
