Tarik’s inclusion in the top list was due to his successful watch party for VCT Masters One Reykjavík. VALORANT was one of the most popular categories on Twitch last month, ranking behind Grand Theft Auto: V, League of Legends, and Just Chatting.

Although no female content creators made it to the top Twitch streamers of April 2022, Stream Charts also compiled a women-only list. Unsurprisingly, Amouranth was the most-watched female streamer with 2.47 million hours watched. ironmouse followed with 1.41 million hours watched, and fuslie with 1.38 million hours watched.

The race for the top Twitch streamer in May 2022 is already underway. It remains to be seen if Gaules can dethrone xQc with his broadcast of the PGL Antwerp Major, scheduled to run from May 9th to 22nd.
