At the age of 20, xRohat is already one of the larger German streamers on Twitch. He has almost 900,000 followers and reaches an average of 5,000 viewers. He doesn’t want MontanaBlack to be blamed for his success.
What streamer is this? xRohat is a 20-year-old streamer who has been active on Twitch since December 2019. In 2020 he mainly showed role-playing in GTA 5, where he embodied the gangster “Big Sosa”.
When MontanaBlack, one of the largest German streamers, joined in the summer of 2021, xRohat was able to benefit enormously from the renewed hype surrounding the RPG: Between August and September 2021, its average viewers rose from 447 to 7,385 (via Sullygnome).
Such a push from larger creators can be very valuable for lesser-known streamers, but it is difficult for some to break away from the big streamers afterwards. This is currently the case for the German streamer Chefstrobel, who is fed up with being the Trymacs sidekick.
It was precisely his emotional video that xRohat used in a stream on August 19 as an opportunity to talk about his own experiences.

What does xRohat say? The Twitch streamer is bothered by the fact that many people only became aware of it through MontanaBlack. He got a big push from the larger streamer, but that applied to the entire roleplay scene at the time.
However, he managed to keep the audience through his own performance. For example, in October 2021, he hosted a marathon stream that reached up to 50,000 concurrent viewers and gained tens of thousands of new followers (via Sullygnome).
A compilation of the stream is currently doing the rounds on TikTok, we have included it for you here:
What is your relationship with MontanaBlack? xRohat stated he knew MontanaBlack before the GTA days. At that time he played the party game Pummel Party with the larger streamer, but was deliberately not on the air so as not to give the impression of pulling himself up at MontanaBlack.
Nevertheless, the 20-year-old has already explained in the past how grateful he is to MontanaBlack, but also to the YouTuber unsympatheticTV, who included him in his videos when nobody knew him. So for xRohat, the main thing seems to be not to be reduced to MontanaBlack.
In the meantime, the 20-year-old has himself demonstrated a good sense of trends. At the beginning of the year he was at the forefront when half of Twitch Germany was in Minecraft fever and was even able to place ahead of “Uncle Monte” in terms of Watchtime (via Sullygnome).
MontanaBlack, on the other hand, is well aware of its enormous reach and the influence that goes with it. The 35-year-old likes to talk about who or what he made big.
However, this has its price, because in return the Twitch streamer demands respect. If he is not given enough credit, MontanaBlack can also become quite uncomfortable. This was evident, for example, with the release of his secret project, the energy drink Gönrgy:
