Top 10 gaming and esports streamers on Twitch

Twitch has taken the center stage in the explosion of gaming and esports streaming over the last few years. Recent stats show that Twitch has more than three million broadcasters and over 15 million active users daily. Most streamers use the platform to share their live gaming experiences.

Viewers watch the top streamers just as they would watch their favorite TV show. With professional graphic overlays, smooth transitions, and custom sound effects, streams are looking more professional than ever. As a result, brands are flocking around top streamers to use their influence for publicity purposes. If you want to become a streamer too, check out this article.

There are quite a few ways to rank esports and gaming streamers on Twitch. We can use the number of followers for a steamer or the total number of channel views, among other means. For this piece, we have taken into account a number of factors and presented our picks for the top 10 esports and gaming streamers on Twitch.

  1. Rubius

With 7.8 million followers, Rubius currently is the fourth most subscribed channel on Twitch. El Rubius is of Spanish-Norwegian origin and mainly streams Minecraft among other games including Fortnite, Dreadhalls, and Dark Fracture.

He is widely popular for his Fortnite streams. From September 2017 to March 2018, his followers grew from 500,000 to 2 million. Before Rubius, Ninja held the record for most concurrent viewers on Twitch with 635,000.
