Reported One discrepancy: the official winners page lists Quackity under Streamers’ Choice, while Dexerto reports that supertf received the Streamers’ Choice Award and Quackity the Legacy Award, which the show also announced on X. NDTV lists Joe Bartolozzi as Best Brand Partner; the official page names Red Bull. We follow the official page where the two differ, and will correct this table if the show updates it.

Our math Counted from the official winners list; shared awards count once for each named creator. Jynxzi was nominated for Streamer of the Year and lost to IShowSpeed, but is the only creator to win the gaming-specific top award and a marathon award in the same night. Feinberg, beaten for Gamer of the Year, still won Best Speedrun Streamer.
What it means for gaming streams
- Small party games keep winning: Stream Game of the Year went to Meccha Chameleon, not a blockbuster. Big Walk, the House House co-op game that was also the Golden Joystick Critics’ Choice, was nominated (the Big Walk AI debate).
- Marathons are a category now: Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed’s Minecraft marathon was nominated, and Kai’s 130-hour GTA marathon earlier this month shows where streaming is heading for GTA 6 week.
- Next up: YouTube’s 24-hour GTA 6 livestream starts on November 18 at 11 p.m. ET, and The Game Awards follow on December 10 (how to watch).
