xQc Streamer of the Year

Despite being one of the most popular streamers on Twitch, Felix “xQc” Lengyel has not been nominated for Streamer of the Year at the upcoming Esports Awards.

The annual gaming-centric award ceremony is taking place in Las Vegas in December 2022. Up until then, various categories will be announced, showcasing the nominees and allowing fans to vote. One of the most popular categories, Streamer of the Year, has just been revealed and xQc isn’t too pleased with the nominees.

xQc reacts to not being nominated for Streamer of the Year

To the surprise of xQc and his followers, the famous juicer was not on the list of nominees for Streamer of the Year. xQc has nearly 11 million followers on Twitch and recently broke viewership records while showing Master Chef and the Amber Heard vs. Johnny Depp trial earlier this year.

“Finalists for Streamer of the Year are… Oh motherf—r man. Holy… I mean I was lazy this year, man, it is what it is. I f—ing fell off, it is what it is. I f—ing fell off boys. I ran the risk. Plus lazy. Plus ugly…” xQc mumbled after seeing the nominees for the first time.

Despite his initial shock, xQc later clarified that he allegedly doesn’t “give a f— about being Streamer of the Year” and was even fine being snubbed for a nomination. But xQc added that if he’s not on the list, why would they include Tyler “Tyler1” Steinkamp and not Ludwig?

xQc often makes fun of Tyler1, the popular League of Legends streamer. The two seem to have a love-hate relationship full of trolling. Tyler1 recently mocked xQc for making some obvious mistakes while playing League of Legends.

Who is nominated for Streamer of the Year 2022?

While it’s a bit strange to not see Twitch’s biggest superstar on the list, there are other popular streamers to vote for at the Esports Awards. Here are the nominees.
