Here is a screenshot of the top most streamers on Twitch who are currently streaming wow classic.
Top 5 Classic WOW Streamers include the following:
- Asmongold - 220k
- sodapoppin - 97.8k
- Method - 45.4k
- shroud - 45.1k
- ZeratoR - 34.1k
Its going to be very interesting to see how the viewership on Twitch is going to hold out for wow classic. Usually new games get a pop up in views for the first day and then it starts to dip down in the following days. I have a feeling things maybe alittle different in the case for wow classic. Their appears to be a synergy of personality streamers and wow players who view these streamers as they play the game themselves. The race to level 60 is also going to take some time to achieve which is another viewer draw to streams.
This whole event for me personally is something I cant understand. I use to play WOW back in 2006 and was very active in PVP. I managed to become one of the first Warlocks on the server to get max pvp rank of High Warlord.
Here is my character with the high warlord tag.
I don't have any itch to play world of warcraft again. Its pretty amazing to see so many have the opposite viewpoint. But as time goes on I guess we will see if people stick with it or if this was one big gimmick that people quit in a week or two.
