Be it in terms of subscriber count or viewership, Twitch sees milestones set and achieved by streamers almost every day. With the streaming world’s biggest stars amassing millions of views every day while making big bucks, live streaming has become one of the most lucrative industries.
Several top YouTubers on Twitch and YouTube managed to build a huge loyal following and climb the charts in 2022. This year has been packed with some of the biggest news in the streaming industry.
From awards night to high-profile bans and exclusive deals to record-breaking live streams and events, it’s been the streaming space’s best year by far. And that’s exactly why so many creators rose to fame in 2022.
In this article, we’ll take a closer look at some of the top streamers and creators who rose to fame in 2022 with their live stream and quality content.
Ironmouse, Sykkuno and more who rose to fame in 2022
3) Sykkuno
The name that has shined the most in 2022 so far is Sykkuno. From cute, shy streamer to YouTube’s biggest face, Sykkuno has come a long way in such a short amount of time.
Be it its collaborative streams with other prominent names in the industry or the launch of its own hit wares, Sykkuno has done it all.
Back in May, the Among Us star even switched his primary streaming platform from Twitch to YouTube after signing an exclusivity deal with the latter. And surprisingly, this is already proving to be one of the best decisions for Sykkuno as he gains a new viewership.
Although he mainly gained his fanbase on Twitch, YouTube gave him something new and better to work on.
Contrary to popular belief, Sykkuno hasn’t lost his viewership or fans in general since he switched platforms, even gaining several hundred when he made the big leap.
Speaking of viewership, on his very first stream, the Among Us star managed to draw in over 41,000 viewers, which is more than his previous month’s Twitch numbers. His other streams also get very good reactions from viewers, making him one of the most popular YouTube creators.
This is undoubtedly a great example of how a streamer can maintain its viewership and popularity even after switching platforms.
2) iron mouse
Twitch now has a new rising star who has surpassed some of the biggest names in streaming. The name in question is none other than Ironmouse, a pink-haired virtual anime character who has overtaken Twitch with her live streams and subathons.
Additionally, in February 2022, the popular VTuber managed to break some records with her subathons to become Twitch’s Best Female Creator. She has accumulated over 100,000 active subscribers.
Today is the end! We finished on day 31 and I’m over the moon. Thank you all for one of the greatest months of my life. I’m eternally grateful for all of your love and support and I’m just shocked by all the milestones we’ve reached. Thank you all, I love you! Until tomorrow! đź’– https://t.co/3hKjhT3qsI
Ironmouse is not new to this streaming space, in fact she started her streaming journey back in 2017 but received her deserved recognition in 2022. It definitely took a while for her streaming career to take off, but it was certainly all worth the wait.
Despite her rare immunodeficiency disorder, the streamer managed to pull herself out of all the negativity and work hard towards her goal. As fans may already know, Ironmouse suffers from a rare condition also known as Common Variable Immune Deficiency (CVID), characterized by low levels of protective antibodies and a high risk of infection.
And unfortunately, due to her condition, VTuber is bedridden. However, streaming on Twitch and interacting with viewers has propelled her to tremendous and well-deserved success.
And that’s exactly why Ironmouse is one of the most popular creators to rise to fame in 2022.

The Minecraft streamer needs absolutely no introduction. After only three years of content creation, the young creator is already one of the best Minecraft streamers of all time.
The streamer gained most followers by playing and streaming Minecraft on Twitch and rose to fame in 2022.

This includes the popular Minecrat players Dream, Sapnap, Tubbo” and many more. And this is exactly what sets him apart from other creators. Although he has only been in this industry for a short time, Tommy manages to amass a massive amount of viewers for his channel and his videos.
