The top 10 streamers to watch for WoW: Forever

WoW: Forever launches on November 4, and a big part of launch week will happen on stream. These are the ten WoW streamers we think are most worth watching, counted down to our number one. We looked at recent viewership in Twitch's WoW category (Streams Charts and TwitchMetrics), but the order is our own call, weighing how many people watch against how much WoW each one actually plays.

1. No. 10

   Known for

   Hardcore

   Guzu was one of the faces of WoW Hardcore from the start, playing it before Blizzard opened official servers. His most famous moment is a death: a fall in the Sunken Temple that ended his Warrior and was later turned into a fan-made cinematic. His streams are high-stakes and funny, and his videos are on YouTube too.

   Emiru is one of Twitch's best-known variety streamers and a co-founder of the creator group OTK. Her WoW runs are some of the most watched in the community: she took on Classic Hardcore with the OnlyFangs guild, and her deaths and comebacks became some of that event's most talked-about moments. Off the game she's just as known for cosplay, from anime and game characters to the looks pictured here, which she shares with her community. Her streams are relaxed and social, which makes them an easy way into WoW for viewers who don't play it themselves.

   Known for

   Variety

   Classic

   Chill

   Jaryd "summit1g" Lazar is a former Counter-Strike pro and one of Twitch's biggest variety streamers for more than a decade. WoW is a game he keeps coming back to: he was part of WoW Classic's launch in 2019, when the game drew more than a million viewers on Twitch at once. His streams are laid-back, with a big, loyal audience, and when he gets hooked on a game his viewers follow. A fresh start at level 1 is the kind of launch that suits him.

   Asmongold

   Streams on

   Twitch

   Kick

   Follow

   Known for

   Variety

   Reactions

   Controversial

   Drama

   Classic

   Zack "Asmongold" Hoyt is the biggest name WoW streaming has produced. He now streams on his zackrawrr channel, where WoW sits alongside news reactions, other games and a lot of opinions, and his clips reach millions more on YouTube. When he plays WoW the whole category moves: Streams Charts found he was the most-watched WoW streamer over Midnight's early access weekend. On reach alone he'd be near the top of this list. He's lower for two reasons: he doesn't always stick to WoW, and his takes and the drama around him can be divisive, which isn't for every viewer. Whether Forever holds him is one of launch week's open questions.

   Community

   Chance "Sodapoppin" Morris has streamed WoW for well over a decade and has more followers than any other WoW streamer, around 9 million. He's best known lately for OnlyFangs, the Classic Hardcore guild of streamers he led, where a single death meant starting over. It went beyond the game, too: the guild held an in-person meeting, costumes and all (pictured). His streams are chaotic and funny, and when he organizes something, much of the WoW category tends to join in.

    Xaryu made his name as a Mage in arena and world PvP and has since become one of WoW's most varied streamers: Classic, Hardcore, and self-imposed challenges like leveling a Hunter with no pet. He's approachable and explains what he's doing, which makes his stream a good one for players new to the game.
