The world of live streaming has witnessed a significant shift in 2024, with many popular streamers defecting from Twitch to Kick. This mass exodus has led to a skewed representation of the most popular streamers on Twitch, making it essential to consider the statistics from both platforms.
According to recent statistics, Multi takes the top spot on Twitch, with an impressive number of watched hours, followed closely by Izak and Gucio. The top 10 spots are rounded out by popular streamers such as NEEXcsgo, xmerghani, RybsonLoL_, Grendy, EWROON, MrDzinold, and BanduraCartel.
What’s striking is that Multi has had a phenomenal year, with remarkable numbers on Twitch, YouTube, and TikTok. Despite not streaming an excessive number of hours, he managed to secure the top spot, solidifying his position as one of the most-watched streamers.
The rankings continue with streamers like BanduraCartel, Putrefy, Xayoo_, Overpow, qlnek, Franio, MokrySuchar, Slayproxx, PAGO3, 1wron3k, and pisiciela, who have maintained a strong presence on both Twitch and Kick.
The question on everyone’s mind is: could more have been extracted from Twitch in 2024? The answer is a resounding yes, but this year has been an exciting watch, with Kick and Twitch going head-to-head in a battle for streaming supremacy. It’s clear that Kick has managed to create a platform that can comfortably compete with Twitch, offering an alternative for streamers and viewers alike.
With Kick’s rise to prominence, it’s become apparent that having a strong community on both platforms can be a game-changer. In the event of a ban on Twitch, a well-established community can easily transition to Kick, making it an attractive option for streamers.
According to a report by Statista, the number of active Twitch streamers has been steadily decreasing since 2022, with a significant drop in 2024. This decline can be attributed to the rise of Kick, which has gained popularity among streamers and viewers alike.
In an interview with Politico, a Kick spokesperson stated, „We’re thrilled to see the growth of our platform and the opportunities it provides for streamers. We’re committed to offering a unique and engaging experience for our users, and we’re excited to see what the future holds.”
As the streaming landscape continues to evolve, one thing is clear: the battle for supremacy between Kick and Twitch is far from over. With both platforms vying for attention, it’s an exciting time for streamers and viewers alike.
