An unusual combination has just emerged on Twitch. A former member of the SEK special forces is playing a police simulation game with loud Twitch streamers.
Who is it about? The German streamer and YouTuber “Kuni331” has recently gained a bit of hype on Twitch and has seen considerable growth in his streaming over the past two weeks.
Kuni is a former member of the SEK, a special unit of the state police. He served there for 4.5 years. The knowledge and expertise he gathered during his service, he now shares on YouTube and Twitch. For example, Kuni reacts to real situations and police operations, interpreting the events based on his experience and expertise.
Additionally, Kuni frequently plays the realistic tactical shooter “Ready or Not,” where one must defuse various dangerous situations as a member of a SWAT team, including hostage situations, bomb threats, and the swatting of a streamer.
What’s happening on Kuni’s channel now? For about 2 weeks, Kuni has been playing Ready or Not with the streamers Max Schradin and Zarbex, who are known as a very loud duo that enjoys provoking and egging each other on.
Kuni acts in the joint streams as something like the instructor. He shows his streamer colleagues how they should position themselves at doors, enter a room, and move through the building in the manner of a real special unit – of course, only in very general terms and without revealing any secret tactics of the SEK.
Along with Max Schradin, Kuni also reacted to a documentary about the Gladbeck hostage-taking, which put the German media world into a state of emergency in 1988.
As a result of the joint streams, Kuni has recorded significant growth on Twitch.
Significant growth on Kuni’s channel
How significant is Kuni’s growth? In the past 14 days, about 4,500 followers have joined the channel of the former SEK officer, bringing him to a total of 17,400.
This was also noticeable in the viewer numbers. While Kuni had an average of 171 viewers in August 2024, the number rose in the past 14 days by around 540% to an average of 468 viewers (as of September 27, 2024, via Sullygnome).
Even after the sudden growth of the channel, it can be expected that Kuni will continue to showcase games like Ready or Not. The tactical shooter is known not only as a police simulation but also for some controversial levels, including one revolving around a streamer: In a shooter on Steam, you storm the apartment of a streamer with blue hair as a police unit
