The award show featured some of the biggest names in the industry competing for the crown. For instance, Kai Cenat took home the Streamer of the Year Award, and Sheena Melwani reigned over the Shorts category.

However, the ‘Breakout Streamer’ category was the one every fan had their eyes on as it featured IShowSpeed. Plus, YouTube pinned the 17-year-old against top creators like QTCindrella, Kai Cenat, and Emiru. This made the competition more fierce, as all nominees had fared far well than expected.

But the community was fan rooting for Speed as he’d become the people’s favorite. And to everyone’s surprise, he took home the title, leaving a smile on every fan’s face.
