Twitch streamer In one of his last streams, Papaplatte was curious to see how much he had spent so far on games and in-game items on the Steam platform. The result was higher than expected. He justified it with his “wild time in 2016”.
Who is the streamer? Kevin “Papaplatte” Teller (27) is one of the best-known German streamers and content creators in the gaming sector. With his authentic and humorous style, he has built up a loyal fan base on platforms such as Twitch and YouTube.
The streamer is best known for his Just Chatting streams. He entertains his viewers with humorous conversations, reactions to videos and everyday experiences.
But Papaplatte not only streams Just Chatting, but also continually offers gaming content. In the past he has already shown how he failed in the tutorial of “Contraband Police” or how he tried hardcore challenges in “Elden Ring” together with HandOfBlood.
But these games cost money – he showed how much he has already spent on them in a recent stream.

“So Counter-Strike cases in 2016 were a crazy thing.”
How much money did he spend on Steam? During one of his Just Chatting streams, he came across a video that showed instructions on how to view your spending on Steam. Papaplatte was so curious that he imitated this process directly during the stream. The result was surprising: he spent a total of 11,626.07 euros on the platform.
What’s behind the expenses? After a short, embarrassed laugh, he explained that the high amount was also due to the many Counter-Strike cases that he had purchased in 2016. He added: “So Counter-Strike cases in 2016 were a crazy thing.”
How does it relate to Counter-Strike? IIn 2016 and 2017, Counter-Strike was Papaplatte’s second most played game on Twitch. In 2017 alone, he spent around 250 hours streaming this game. He also played for at least 8 hours in the last 30 days, making him the 6th most streamed game in this period (via Twitchtracker).
However, he doesn’t seem to open cases anymore and is now criticizing other streamers who do so. Last year he criticized Montanablack on X because it continued to open Counter-Strike cases.
“Only losers open cases.”
What criticism did he make? Papaplatte posted a post on Many assumed he got it through opening cases, but Papaplatte clarified in the post that he got it through trading, not opening cases.
He wrote: “Only for all MontanaBlack Enjoyers, I didn’t unbox the thing, I traded it, only losers open cases.”
Chefstrobel, another well-known streamer, then commented with a video excerpt in which Papaplatte opened cases and wrote: “You are a loser”. Papaplatte replied dryly that it was really him in 2016.
