September was another strong month for Apex Legends top streamers on Twitch. August saw the highest peaks since the game launched, with several big names like NICKMERCS jumping over from Call of Duty: Warzone. In September, another big name in streaming made their appearance in the Apex scene and cracked the top 10. But who were the best?
The Japanese scene for Apex Legends has really taken off, and has three of the most-viewed streamers for the game. This includes the number one streamer for September, kato_junichi0817. He had a peak of nearly 220,000 viewers and total hours watched clocked in at 6.6 million. Two other Japanese streamers were in Apex Legends top streamers for the month, with Stylishnoob4 garnering 3 million hours watched and FPS_Shaka recieving 1.6 million hours.
In the western scene, NICKMERCS lost his top spot to TSM’s Imperial_Hal. Hal had 3.3 million hours viewed while NICKMERCS dropped to 2.8 million hours viewed. However he streamed significantly less than Hal, with only 82 hours to Hal’s 197. Perhaps if he had streamed more Apex Legends, he would have regained his crown from August.
Another big name busting into the top 10 is Ninja. After making his name in Fortnite years back, he has recently been trying his hand at Apex Legends. Here are the top 10 streamers for September, with numbers from SullyGnome:
