TNL Take: The past few weeks have seen a relative dearth in eSports TV programming unlike the summer onslaught that Disney XD unleashed.
Here's the latest look at the Top 25 to date.

Injustice 2 remained strong drawing in 209,000 total viewers with almost 2/3 of the audience falling in the key 18-49 demographic.
While the 2nd week did drop from last week's premiere, the decrease of ~10% isn't too bad considering it was going up against a weekend of League of Legends Championship and the start of Blizzcon.
It will be interesting to see if the ratings increase this Friday with relatively little competition vs. last weekend.
As I mentioned last week, the Fighting genre continues to dominate with half of the Top 25 falling within this category.
