With the esports seasons for many top disciplines slowly coming to an end, official channels for various games continued to take up most of the screen time on YouTube Gaming in November 2024. League of Legends and Mobile Legends: Bang Bang remained the leaders, thanks to their world championship events, with the latter most likely to feature in these rankings for December, as the M6 competition is ongoing.
VTubers also made their presence felt last month, led by some familiar names who continue to lead the charge for this rapidly growing segment. We also have a couple of individual content creators whose entertaining live streams have made them massive names in their regions and languages.
Top YouTube Gaming Channels in November 2024
Among channels representing LoL, the top name was the official LCK handle, with 4.31M Hours Watched. Impressively, alongside the official LoL Esports handle, it had just one broadcast that notched up these massive numbers: the 2024 Worlds final between T1 and Bilibili Gaming, reflecting the importance of Korean audiences to the game's record-breaking viewership numbers.
For MLBB, the official MPL Indonesia channel, which also topped this leaderboard by hitting 4.34M HW, was the game's sole representative. Sticking to the Southeast Asian nation, there was also Windah Basudara, the renowned creator who spent most of November 2024 playing titles like Plants vs. Zombies, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas - The Definitive Edition, and I'm on Observation Duty.
VTubers had quite a heavy presence this time, topped off by the appearance of the official Nijisanji channel, which was busy with the Nijisanji YuGiOh Master Duel Festival 2024 and other events last month. Star community names like Kuzuha Channel, Koyori ch., and Pekora Ch., also made this list, aided by their playthroughs of games like Street Fighter 6, Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride, and Powerful Pro Baseball 2024-2025.
We also had YouTube megastar IShowSpeed in the fourth spot with 3.10M HW as he took fans on his next global sojourn, this time in Australia and New Zealand. Last but not least was another regular on these standings, India's LoLzZz Gaming; he continues to enthrall fans with his informative and entertaining videos on the popular battle royale game, Battlegrounds Mobile India.
When it comes to streamers only, apart from the names mentioned above, four big online stars have made this list. The most globally renowned among them is Ludwig, the American sensation known for organizing various events and competitions who spent November 2024 playing games like LoL and Rivals of Aether II.
There's also the prominent MLBB creator, set1awanade, who topped this leaderboard for October but had to settle for the ninth spot this time. He is accompanied by fellow Indonesian Mobile Legends influencer XINNN, with both playing a vital role in helping the ongoing M6 World Championship get off to a flying start in terms of audience reach.
Canadian YouTube megastar Typical Gamer made a comeback to these rankings after a long gap, with his focus on Fortnite paying off hugely. The game recently saw a spike in viewership thanks to the Remix: The Finale in-game concert featuring Snoop Dogg, Ice Spice, Eminem, and Juice Wrld that attracted over 14 million concurrent players and reached a year-high PV figure of 1.05M online spectators.
Top YouTube Gaming US Streamers in November 2024
The two also made the overall streamers list, so we will start with DrDisRespect, who registered 1.32M HW. Most of his time streaming last month came from putting in a lot of hours into the Call of Duty series, including the newest installment, Black Ops 6. Interestingly, the legendary broadcaster joined Rumble last month, so it remains to be seen how he manages multistreaming and whether that affects his monthly watch time on the red platform.
Other COD influencers also find places on this table, including TimTheTatman, NoahJ456, Swagg, and BobbyPoffGaming. The last personality — a new entrant — is a former Blackout player who was ranked number one for kills and wins and is a three-time Warzone champion.
Fortnite gets its representative in the form of the legendary SypherPK, with its recent events causing quite the commotion online. Another frequent name on these America-based lists, CouRage, was also busy playing Epic Games' builder shooter, with Chapter 6 Season 1's launch turning out to be quite the newsworthy spectacle.
We also have the big-name YouTube star Valkyrae take up the seventh position. Her November 2024 mostly revolved around playing Super Mario Party: Jamboree, the latest entrant in the mythical video game franchise, alongside colleagues like Sykkuno, Pokimane, and Ellum.
Top YouTube Gaming European Channels in November 2024
As with the last few monthly rankings, official organization channels topped this leaderboard, led by ESL Dota 2. The popular tournament organizer was busy covering the DreamLeague Season 24, won by Team Falcons, and the various Closed Qualifiers for the ESL One Bangkok 2024.
Counter-Strike 2 had two official channels covering its events in the form of PGL and BLAST Premier. The former live-streamed all the action from the numerous regional RMRs for the upcoming Shanghai Major 2024, while the latter broadcast games of the BLAST Premier World Final 2024, where G2 Esports emerged victorious.
This list is also quite diverse when it comes to the kind of content the streamers delve into, led by the likes of WirtualTV, Unchained_Off, Jacob, and Hyra. These famous online stars play titles like Trackamania, Fortnite, and Brawl Stars, introducing these games to new audiences almost daily and helping build their niche communities.
There were also a couple of popular Spanish internet personalities in the form of DjMaRiiO (one of the top names associated with the Kings League) and Nexxuz World. They are two of the most renowned influencers in the community, focusing on titles like EA Sports FC 25 and Ark: Survival Evolved last month. Pokemon creator Folagor03 joins his countrymates as the third Hispanic member on these rankings, with his collaboration and reaction videos also proving to be a draw among audiences.

They were busy covering crucial tournaments like the Street Fighter League Pro-JP 2024, Capcom Pro Tour 2024 Super Premier Japan, and the PUBG MOBILE Global Championship.
There was also MPL Malaysia and Vietnam Championship Series - LMHT (which, like the LCK channel, got to 1.62M HW despite a short airtime), with both covering the world championships of their respective games, MLBB and LoL. Lastly, there were two CS2 esports broadcasters in the form of Gaules and PGL, with the Brazilian Twitch megastar following the various qualifiers for the upcoming Shanghai Major 2024.
