The German streamer HandOfBlood did the same thing on April 2 as the most successful streamer on Twitch, Caedrel. He comments on the games of his own team in League of Legends. And the fans love it. In the last game in LoL, on April 2, against the team of the drugstore chain Rossmann, HandOfBlood was once again on fire.
This is what the biggest streamer on Twitch does: The Brit Caedrel formed his own team in LoL at the end of 2024 and has been training the team ever since. He is the founder and coach, also taking care of the management.
With his team “Los Ratones”, Caedrel is hugely successful – both in sports and as a content creator on Twitch. Los Ratones have won their regional league, and Caedrel has risen to become the most successful streamer on Twitch worldwide. In the last 90 days, when Caedrel streams, he had 44,000 viewers. And he streams a lot.
Caedrel even won the European Championship with his team in LoL and is aiming for the World Championship, although that is somewhat delusional.
HandOfBlood cheers on his team
This is what HandOfBlood is doing now: HandOfBlood currently does something very similar on Twitch at least a few hours per week. Although he is actually the pioneer and Caedrel the imitator – just as the German team NNO was the pioneer for the wave that is now conquering LoL and Twitch.
Because HandOfBlood, the streamer, founded his team in League of Legends, Eintracht Spandau, years ago, and won the European Championship a year before Caedrel.
HandOfBlood casts the games of his team in the German regional league on his channel, but not in his content role as President Knabe, but as an excited hardcore fan of his team.
Sportingly unsuccessful, but damn entertaining
This is how it is going for HandOfBlood: Currently, Eintracht Spandau is not doing well at all. In the first split, the team finished last, on April 2 they lost to the team of the drugstore chain Rossmann, the Rossmann Centaurs, and stand again at 1-4 at the bottom of the table, in 8th place out of 10.
But for HandOfBlood as a content creator, things are going well: On April 2, a peak of 11,000 people watched him and his team.
HandOfBlood casts together with Kevin Westphal, the e-sports lead of Eintracht Spandau, and is fully engaged.
This is how HandOfBlood cheered on his own player when the opponent was about to escape, saying “Break both his legs,” quickly adding, when he realized what he had said, an “ingame.”
The most viewed clip from the match was when the much-vaunted ADC Broeki from content videos had his glorious moment: You can rely on the guy.
Even though HandOfBlood only reaches a quarter of Caedrel’s viewers and the sporting success is not quite there, the entertainment is definitely top-notch: NoWay wants to wobble the opponent into the water at an event, ends up bathing himself
