Who is the biggest Destiny 2 streamer on Twitch after KingGothalion’s departure? The new number 1 is an exceptional player: Gladd.
This is about this streamer: The currently largest Twitch channel for Destiny 2 belongs to Sean Gallagher, better known as Gladd. As of 03.12.19, he has over 230,000 followers.
On average, 2,511 users watched Gladd simultaneously in the last 30 days. During this time, his streams were viewed a staggering 527,744 hours. The runner-up, Gigz, only managed 130,908 hours.
What makes Gladd stand out? Gladd is especially known in the Destiny community for his outstanding performance in PvE. He regularly takes on the hardest challenges but also makes headlines with absurd actions.
His portfolio includes marathon sessions and world records. No challenge in the Destiny universe seems too difficult. A selection of his achievements from Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 are:
- Gladd drummed Raid Boss Crota to death.
- He fought solo and unarmed through the new dungeon.
- Even the hardest Destiny 2 missions were completed with a drum as a controller.
- Gladd was involved in the largest Destiny mystery.
- As part of the professional clan Redeem, he was the first to beat the Last Wish raid.
- He even made it into the Guinness Book of Records.
What we still know about Gladd: He himself says that his name Gladd derives from the word gladiator. The top player was born in 1988 and took his first steps in the gaming world with the Atari. Since then, video games have been an important part of his life:
- Especially the Nintendo 64 has captivated him.
- He made his first speedrun attempts in Mario 64.
- The US-American discovered the genre of first-person shooters through the “Call of Duty” series.
- Eventually, he landed in Bungie’s looter-shooter Destiny.
- Destiny 2 has been his main game since 2017.
- He didn’t last long in Anthem.
The king is dead, long live the king
This was the number 1 before Gladd: Until recently, another streamer was sitting on the Destiny throne: KingGothalion. The veteran from the days of Destiny 1 “voluntarily” stepped down.
KingGothalion switched from Twitch to Microsoft’s competition. Before his move to Mixer, he had over a million followers, but even then Gladd outperformed him in viewer hours.
Who are the top 5 Destiny streamers? The new king among Destiny streamers on Twitch is Gladd. The 2nd to 5th places are occupied by these channels:
- 2nd place: Gigz – The pro Gigz is at home in both PvE and PvP of Destiny. He is closely following Gladd. He has 227,426 Twitch users following him and his watch time is 130,908 hours.
- 3rd place: IFrostbold – The affectionately Frosty named streamer is an absolute PvP-crack. He has 114,085 Twitch users following him and his watch time is at 109,698 hours.
- 4th place: Datto – Dattos‘ home is the PvE. He is a raid expert and creates guides and analyses for the community. When it comes to followers, he outstrips Gladd with 487,102 Twitch users. However, he has to deal with a significant shortfall in watch time at 108,121 hours.
- 5th place: AyyItsChevy – Chevy is another member of the Redeem clan. He has 21,397 Twitch users following him and his watch time amounts to 101,478 hours.
