3MR is riding GTA V streaming to the very top of Kick
GTA V is one of the most-played games across all modern streaming platforms, and few are doing it better and getting more out of it than Amr “3mr” Diab, a rising star on Kick.
One of the best parts of being a streamer is that there’s an audience available for almost anything, and gaming has always been at the very forefront of that idea. Top games on Kick include League of Legends, PUBG Mobile, and Grand Theft Auto V. The latter is particularly popular on the platform, and in each month, viewers regularly consume around 11 million hours of live GTA V content.
While there are a number of streamers sharing their GTA V gameplay, Kick’s 3mr stands out in terms of both quality and sheer amount of content he produce as he continues his climb up the streaming ranks. Here’s what to expect from the creator and how his popularity exemplifies Kick’s increasing diversity.
3mr is one of Kick’s top Grand Theft Auto V streamers
Hailing from Egypt, 3mr has dominated the Grand Theft Auto V category with millions of hours of his streams featuring the game being watched by audiences on a monthly basis.
3mr is best known for his GTA content. Between December 12 and January 12, he topped the chart on Kick for the most-watched GTA V content with an incredible 2.15 million hours of his GTA videos being viewed. This puts him above other streamers with similar content, including some who have significantly more total followers, such as Ahmed “SXB” Alqahtani and Eray Can Ozkenar.
While his following doesn’t yet compare to that of the biggest and most-watched streamers on Kick, it’s certainly getting there. 3mr now has around 390,000 followers on Kick, and the number continues to climb upwards.
When not playing GTA V, 3mr also streams in the PUBG Mobile, EA Sports FC, and just chatting categories. And with hours of new material streamed just about every day, 3mr keeps his growing number of fans engaged with all of the fresh content they could ask for.

Outside of Kick, 3mr’s largest single following is on Facebook, where his page has 1.7 million followers who get to keep tabs on his latest life updates. His TikTok account also has a massive 1.4 million large audience and features snippets from 3mr’s Kick streams as well as behind-the-scenes content that gives fans insight into what his life looks like when he’s not streaming live. Finally, 3mr’s Instagram has 296,000 followers and is similar in content to his Facebook, mostly featuring slice-of-life posts from the popular Kick streamer.
Arabic streamers are a growing part of Kick’s streaming community
3mr exemplifies the growing international streaming community on Kick, especially in the Arabic-speaking world where the platform continues to grow its following and presence.
Out of the top 40 streamers on Kick, over a quarter of them predominantly speak Arabic live on stream. With some estimates of the number of Arabic speakers worldwide hitting 400 million, this is a huge potential market to tap into for the platform and its streamers. Creators hailing from all over, including such countries as Jordan and Saudi Arabia, have found a home in Kick to create their content.
When compared to livestreaming rival Twitch, Kick has a much greater percentage of popular Arabic-speaking streamers today. And that number seems likely to continue to skew in Kick’s favor.
Additionally, Kick is gaining a reputation for being a more internationally diverse platform than Twitch. It wins out in terms of the popularity and viewership percentages of popular Spanish streamers. In fact, Colombian Luis Fernando “WestCol” Villa Alvarez is the most popular creator on Kick with 3.6 million followers. Other top streamers hail from Turkey and Russia and stream mainly in the languages native to those countries.
3mr is part of the global streaming community Kick has cultivated since late 2022. He is part of the evidence that there’s an audience for any creator who is ready to provide sufficient content for his audience to gobble up. And with hundreds of hours of streaming each month, 3mr is working hard to keep it that way.
