What Pro Players to watch? - Twitch Edition

Thanks to Twitch, we not only get access to frequent tournament broadcasts but player livestreams as well. We listed a few of the top pro players that are also frequent streamers.

As all of you know, Overwatch is an amazing game to play. The diversity of heroes and the different gamemodes keeps you entertained for hours. But, thanks to Twitch and Youtube, playing a game is no longer the only way to consume it. There are plenty of reasons to watch other people play Overwatch: to learn, to be entertained, to take a break from playing yourself.

Below, we have listed several pro players that you can regularly tune in to, as they play Overwatch on the highest level:

 

Numlocked EuropeTeam: Creation eSports
Role: Main TankTwitch - Twitter


Numlocked should be familiar to the Team Fortress 2 fans, as he was one of the best demomen around. Moving over to Overwatch, Numlocked now plays main tank for Creation eSports (#1 on our EU Rankings). His years of playing competitive shooters have provided him with solid mechanics and incredible map awareness. Often playing with his teammates, Numlocked streams semi-regularly depending on the event schedule.
 

Mendokusaii EuropeTeam: FaZe eSports
Role: DPSTwitch - Twitter


Mendo has been a notorious player for months now, both for his top notch DPS play and for his dank meming skills. Both of these are omnipresent in his streams, and to quote the memer himself: "Shit talk is encouraged , go ham fam". You hate him or you love him, but you know what you get. Don't let all the memery distract you from his top notch gameplay though, Mendo is a real tryhard.
Mendo streams about every day, and usually solo- or duoqueues Competitive Play.
 

Internethulk United StatesTeam: Team EnVyUs
Role: FlexTwitch - Twitter


Internethulk is the creative mastermind behind Team EnVyUs (#1 on our worldwide rankings). He was a big part of IDDQD's dominance through strategy, and his Symmetra play arguably led to her subsequent nerfs. Now situated in the EnVyUs house, Hulk has set up a structured schedule for viewers to depend on: Monday - Thursday midnight EST - 5 AM EST, and occasionally after the weekend events. On stream Hulk plays a variety of heroes to keep his flex skills sharp. He will also answer questions in-depth, so if you have a very specific question that deserves a solid answer, tune in to Hulk's next broadcast and ask him directly! 
If you can never get enough of Team EnVyUs, then count your blessings as the team frequenly appears together on Hulk's streams as well as on some of his teammates'.
 

Grego United StatesTeam: Cloud9
Role: Second Support/FlexTwitch - Twitter


Cloud9 is currently the second highest ranked team on our worldwide rankings, and Grego is a big part of their success. Switching between supports and dps in his tournament matches, Grego plays about the same heroes on his streams as well. Don't expect a lot of chatter from Grego, as he keeps it chill and to the point. If you want a calm stream idling on the background, or insight into pro play without any distractions, then Grego's is probably your best bet! Grego does not have a set schedule, but streams for long periods of time most days.

And of course, we could never forget about:
 

Seagull United StatesTeam: Luminosity 
Role: DPSTwitch - Twitter


Brandon "Seagull" Larned is the top bird in Overwatch streaming right now. His fun and laidback broadcasts have entertained Overwatch fans since the start of the Closed Beta. Tuning in to Seagull promises both an enjoyable and highly informative time, with subtle tips mentioned left and right about pretty much every single hero.
Seagull streams Mon-Fri, from 8 AM to 1 pm PST, often accompanied by his friends, teammates or Luminosity manager Shayed.

 

This is a good collection of pro players to watch, but we must have forgotten many of your favourites as well. Let us know in the comments below if we did!
