Recently, an important event took place in the streaming world - The Streamer Awards 2025, where the work of the best streamers on the platform "Twitch" was celebrated. This year was special, as significant changes in the award format were promised, which will be presented by QTCinderella, the host of the event.
QTCinderella announced that the last event was "much bigger" than expected, and a "serious turnaround" in organizing the show is planned for 2026. She noted that she gained a lot of experience from this year and is ready to make substantial adjustments, promising that next year will be "better than all previous ones." "I sincerely thank you for your trust. If I let anyone down this year, next time, I promise, it will be different," QTCinderella stated during her stream on December 8.
Among the winners of The Streamer Awards 2025, Kai Cenat won four awards for "Mafiathon 3," while IShowSpeed received the title of "Streamer of the Year." However, there were controversies, particularly the VTubing community was divided over the victory of TheBurntPeanut in the "VTuber of the Year" category. Streamer India Love apologized for stepping on stage uninvited after the announcement of the "Streamer of the Year."
At the same time, RaKai became another sensation during the event when he directly asked the head of "Twitch" Dan Clancy about the reasons for his recent ban related to streaming in Walmart stores. The discussion sparked headlines, as Clancy confirmed that bans on the platform are decided by a team, and he does not personally handle these issues. RaKai found himself in the spotlight after being accused of "illegal actions," which led to a two-year ban that Twitch stated was a "visual bug."
Overall, The Streamer Awards 2025 was a true celebration for the streaming community, but events with even elements of drama did not go unnoticed. QTCinderella, hoping for a positive outcome, assured that she is ready to consider all critical comments to make the show even better in 2026.
