The second edition of the Squid Craft Games completely dominated the purple platform screen last Sunday, and it became the most watched Twitch Rivals in the history of the platform. Despite fighting inch by inch with the Kings League, one of the vedettes of this 2023 for Twitch, Minecraft threw all the weight of its history and took all the reflectors. With the addition, of course, that it had no language barrier and had content creators from all over the world.
Within all the statistics, that of visits is probably the most relevant. The podium of the most watched streamers during the event was led by Auronplay, which had an average of 195,000 viewers and a peak audience of 366,000. The Argentinian Spreen, Streamer of the Year at the Teatro Colón, for his part, had a golden minute better than Auron’s, with 441,000 people simultaneously, and an average of 165,000 viewers. Third place went to Ibai Llanos and its peak of 208,000 people.
In addition to being an extremely successful day for the entire Twitch community, content creators in Argentina also managed to achieve outstanding numbers. Spreen, to no one’s surprise, was the big star. Although it was expected to be the most watched in Argentina, its audience peak was top 2 in the world, only behind Shadoune, who reached the final of the event and showed more than 700,000 people simultaneously. This allowed Spreen to surpass Coscu, and officially be the LATAM record streamer with 441,000 viewers.
Carreraaa and BoffeGP also broke their own records. Carreraaa, winner of the Dance of the Year at TheGrefg’s ESLAND Awards, reached 120 thousand views. BoffeGP, for its part, reached 18,000 people live.
AURONPLAY WRAPPED IN CONTROVERSY
In the middle of the event, with the semifinals still to be played, Auron charged with everything against Twitch and got into a controversy again. “Remind me that in my projects I never put a big company behind,” said the streamer, referring to Twitch. He later added: “Everything gets a lot more complicated, to make easy decisions you have to talk to seven different people.”

Finally, he talked about the prize that Twitch gave to the winner of the Squid Games, and joked about the interest of the platform regarding the event: “Twitch put a lot of pressure, even the bald man from Amazon saw this,” he said, referring to Jeff Bezos, the owner of the corporation. To close, he commented that the The 100,000 USD prize for being the most watched Twitch Rivals in history seemed little: “It’s the same as always”.
