Most-watched channels
The most-watched channel of last week was TFBlade on Twitch. The channel racked up 1.8 million hours watched playing League of Legends. TFBlade, real name Ashkan Homayouni, was suspended from Twitch twice last year over allegations of using racial slurs during streams. However, video evidence suggests that he may not have, and the suspensions were revoked.
ESA Marathon is a new entry at number two after racking up over 1.8 million hours watched last week. While the chart specifies the main game as Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the channel has covered a variety of games during a recent charity speedrun event.
WePlayEsport_RU is another new entry in third after amassing 1.7 million views covering Dota 2's esports scene. LoL Esports is the only YouTube channel in the list this time at number four, moving down one place following a 5.4 per cent drop in views.
Summit1g is in fifth place with 1.5 million Escape From Tarkov views. He's closely followed by xQc on Twitch, who also racked up 1.5 million hours watched last week.
League of Legends pro loltyler1 is in seventh place and sees a 19.6 per cent decrease in views. Twitch's Gaules sees an impressive 67 per cent increase in views covering CS:GO.
