Despite Twitch taking away a good portion of both creators and users, YouTube still remains a great platform for gaming content. Since YouTube scenery and trends are ever-changing, we decided to do a little digging and see who are the most popular gaming YouTube stars at this moment.
After we considered using several different methods, the simplest one proved to be the best. We just took the number of subscribers and number of views each YouTube gaming channel has and ranked them accordingly. This is what we got.
Subscribers: 22.9 Million
