Asmongold Becomes Worldwide Streaming Leader

Twitch and Kick streamer Asmongold has become the world’s most-watched streamer for the second quarter of the year. The impressive achievement has put the streamer ahead of other well-known big names on Twitch, Kick, and YouTube, like IShowSpeed, Kai Cenat, Hasan, and others.

While Asmongold is a controversial figure, there’s no arguing that he’s also quite popular. In March, Asmongold had the most hours viewed on Twitch, and became the top streamer on the platform the following month. However, this new achievement wouldn’t have been possible if he hadn’t also embraced a platform outside of Twitch.

Asmongold Makes More in Two Kick Streams Than a Month on Twitch

Asmongold reveals that he earned more money from just two streams on Kick than he did from an entire month of streaming on Twitch.

According to StreamsCharts, via Dexerto, Asmongold was the most-watched streamer worldwide in the second quarter of 2025. From April 1 to June 30 on Twitch alone, he’s slipped to the second-most watched streaming spot, with 26.41 million hours viewed. This puts him behind Caedrel, who led the pack with 27.87 million hours watched. However, Asmongold multi-streams to Kick, as well, which pushed his numbers up to a total of 28.58 million hours watched during that period.

Where Will Asmongold Go From Here?

Streaming is a fairly volatile medium, where people who were unheard of can soar in popularity overnight. While it’s possible that Asmongold could be dethroned during the next quarter, especially if any of the runner-ups decide to hold stream subathons, it’s likely that his numbers will continue to climb. Asmongold only began streaming on Kick in June, so he managed to climb to the top spot despite the platform not boosting his hours viewed across April and May. Assuming he continues to stream on both platforms for the entirety of quarter 3, his numbers will likely be even more impressive.

While Kick as a streaming service still isn’t as popular as Twitch, its offers to streamers has been enticing enough to bring a lot of big names over. Kick previously signed contracts with major streamers to get them on the platform, but even smaller streamers have a lot to potentially gain there. Kick shares 95% of the revenue generated by streams with the streamer, taking a mere 5% of the amount for itself. This is a major change from Twitch, which does a 50/50 split on subs with the majority of its streamers. Kick does cut the amount it gives to streamers if they multi-stream, but even then, many have decided it’s worth appearing on both platforms. If another big name decides to follow Asmongold’s lead and stream on both platforms, he may end up seeing some competition in the future.
