Top Streamers to Watch During the VALORANT Closed Beta
If you haven’t been lucky enough to get access to the closed beta of Riot Games’ new FPS, VALORANT, don’t fret. There are still plenty of streamers who will be broadcasting exciting gameplay for you to enjoy.
Several professional players from various esports, including CS:GO and Apex Legends, have taken up the challenge of playing VALORANT and are sharing their experiences with their fans. Here are some of the best streamers to watch during the VALORANT closed beta.
Brax
Brax, a former CS:GO professional, has made a name for himself as one of North America’s most promising talents. Although he was banned from competing in Valve-sponsored events in 2015 due to match-fixing, he has since focused on smaller tournaments and streaming.
Brax officially retired from competitive CS:GO on Feb. 28 and joined popular Korean esports organization T1 as a content creator and VALORANT player. His exceptional skills from CS:GO have translated well to VALORANT, making him a must-watch streamer for fans.
Shroud
Shroud, a renowned streamer, gained popularity through his exceptional skills in games like CS:GO, Apex Legends, and PUBG. Although he migrated to Mixer in October 2019, he remains one of the most skilled and entertaining streamers to watch.
Please note that Shroud streams on Mixer, so you won’t have a chance to get VALORANT closed beta access through Twitch drops from his stream. However, if you’re looking for impressive gameplay, Shroud still delivers.
Dizzy
Coby “dizzy” Meadows, known for his success in Apex Legends, has gained popularity as a young and talented streamer on Twitch. After retiring from professional Apex play in December 2019, he has continued to grow his stream.
Dizzy’s impressive aim and game sense from his Apex days have also translated well to VALORANT. Keep an eye on him as he potentially explores a competitive career in Riot’s new shooter.
DrLupo
DrLupo, one of Twitch’s most popular streamers, is known for playing first-person shooters and battle royale games. Besides his gaming skills, he is also recognized for his charitable endeavors, including raising over two million dollars for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital.
Though he may not be the most competitive player, DrLupo’s entertaining gameplay and philanthropy have made him a well-loved streamer by his fans.
TimTheTatman
TimTheTatman, another popular Twitch streamer, has also dived into the VALORANT closed beta. With a massive following on Twitch, TimtheTatman has made a name for himself as one of the platform’s biggest streamers.
While he has been playing Call of Duty’s Warzone mode, TimTheTatman was invited by Riot Games to try out VALORANT during an offline event. He plans to stream VALORANT until the official release this summer.
TimTheTatman believes that VALORANT will be the next big thing in gaming, and it seems he may be right. The game reached a peak viewership of over 1.7 million people on its debut.
