German Counter-Strike 2 content creator ohnePixel has taken the esports world by storm once again, this time by dominating the VALORANT Champions 2025 co-streaming scene.
According to data revealed by Esports Charts, ohnePixel pulled in an astonishing 112,100 peak concurrent viewers when making his debut as a VALORANT co-streamer during the grand finals weekend, surpassing many established personalities and former pro players. His explosive rise to the top of the event’s viewership charts marked a defining moment for both the VALORANT and Counter-Strike communities, proving just how powerful crossover appeal can be in modern esports.
What made this surge particularly remarkable is how quickly it happened. OhnePixel joined the tournament coverage during its final stretch, yet within hours, his stream became one of the most-watched in the entire event.
OhnePixels’ years of experience, recognizable personality, and knack for keeping viewers engaged through tense moments played a major role in drawing such a massive audience during the VALORANT Champions 2025 broadcast. Fans praised his natural charisma and quick reactions, which helped make even the most intense rounds feel entertaining and accessible to both new viewers and FPS veterans.
The success of his broadcast represents a larger shift in how esports audiences consume content. Players and fans are no longer bound by game loyalty; they follow personalities who bring entertainment and insight, regardless of the title being played. This further raises the question of whether we might soon see developers and TOs collaborating with other content creators to boost their respective growth.
However, as the dust settles after VALORANT Champions 2025, it remains to be seen if the communities are treated to any other crossovers in upcoming tournaments.
As both VALORANT and Counter-Strike 2 continue to shape the future of competitive FPS gaming, ohnePixel’s co-stream drew in new fans and showcased the growing impact of personality-driven content in competitive gaming. For the streamer, this achievement reconfirms his growing influence as one of the most recognizable gaming figures.
The successful co-stream placed ohnePixel above well-known community figures such as FNS and tarik, who each registered peak audiences of 64,600 and 50,000, respectively. The German entered the space with a large following from CS2 and immediately drew substantial attention, with his broadcast maintaining a strong viewership throughout the finals.
