Why did it take so long? As MeinMMO has previously reported, stream snipers caused a lot of trouble for the two streamers. They specifically hunt streamers and gain an unfair advantage by following the live stream.
The problem became so big that Fortnite developer Epic Games intervened itself. With its help, they were able to ban many stream snipers from the games (via Dexerto). Her goal suddenly seemed achievable again.
How many viewers did the two streamers have? According to the X-Channel Streams Charts, Kai Cenat had around 160,000 simultaneous viewers at his peak. His watch time was around 5 million hours. IShowSpeed had 186,000 viewers with the same watch time.
If you add these numbers together, the two streamers had more than 346,000 viewers and a combined watch time of over 10 million hours. However, they suffered 206 defeats before they were able to end their stream with one decisive victory.
Kai Cenat is known for his long Twitch streams and recently made huge amounts of money from a single stream. You can read more about it here: “Why do you donate to the rich?” – 22-year-old earns 1 million euros with a single stream on Twitch and it’s counting
