Streams Charts continues to sum up Twitch results of April. For this article, we present the rating of the most popular teams (squads) on the platform. Among other things, the Tribo Gaules association outpaced the Riot Games channels group in the ranking, and OTK streamers remained in the Top 10 even despite a significant drop in watch time compared to March.
Most Watched Streamer Teams on Twitch in April 2023
Loaded streamer team remained in first place in the April ranking. Over the past month it racked up 18 million Hours Watched, slightly fewer than it did in March. The biggest contributors to the total are summit1g, shroud, LIRIK and CohhCarnage.
Luminosity Gaming moved up to second place from third place in March. The team's streamers racked up about 17.7 million HW in April. Most of the credit goes to Canadian xQc, who increased his HW number by 23% compared to March.
Tribo Gaules moved up from fifth place to the Top 3 of the ranking, accumulating 15.5 million HW. The increase was possible thanks to more broadcasts of CS:GO tournaments. Last month, Brazilian streamer Gaules actively covered the IEM Rio 2023 and BLAST.tv Paris Major 2023 qualifiers.
The Riot Games official channels' association dropped to fourth place. It racked up 15.5 million HW in April, 20% fewer than in March. The reasons for this drop are simple: in the top League of Legends franchise leagues, the spring seasons ended, and there were fewer tournament broadcasts.
GG Talent Group rose from ninth to fifth place. In the month, its streamers accumulated just over 15 million HW, almost a third more than in March. Distortion2, Elajjaz, and BarbarousKing contributed the most to the total.
TSM, G FUEL, Twitch Ambassadors, OTK and LOUD are in the second half of the ranking. Of these five, OTK had the biggest drop in Hours Watched. In March, it was in fourth place with 14.2 million HW, but in April, that number dropped to 11.9 million HW. It should be recalled that in March, the OTK streamers had several interesting projects that were of great interest to viewers. Moreover, the team's leader, zackrawrr, racked up a large number of Hours Watched thanks to the Diablo IV beta test broadcasts.
In terms of the greatest progress, it was shown by the Twitch Ambassadors. Last month it was not in the Top 10, but at the end of April, it took eighth place with the result of 12.5 million HW. Almost all of the team's top streamers showed growth in April, with GRONKH making the biggest contribution to the total.
Most Watched Esports Teams on Twitch in April 2023
In April, esports teams' streamers accumulated slightly more Hours Watched than in March. However, the fluctuations in the rating were not significant. The top 3 leaders remained unchanged — Luminosity Gaming, TSM and LOUD. Team Sentinels and Team Liquid also kept their spots in the Top 5, just switching places.
Among the really serious changes in the ranking, we can note the exits of FaZe and Misfits Gaming from the Top 10. The latter saw a drop of as much as 82% in total Hours Watched, as it was unable to keep the level high after the Tubbo subathon and the QTCinderella Streamer Awards held in March.
The Japanese team DeToNator and the German team FOKUS joined the ranking, accumulating 9.7 million and almost 5 million HW, respectively. The Japanese streamers actively streamed Rust in April, while the German streamers entertained fans with Valorant, FIFA and Fortnite broadcasts.
