Read on for previous month's SC2 streaming statistics!

Highlights

INnoVation is back to streaming, and enters at #17!
Winter's still steady at #1, but he seems to be a little less dominant than he used to be. Hui comes pretty close this month, and in May RotterdaM wasn't too far off either. Will we see his streak at the top spot broken this year?
WCS Austin scored big, with 57k people seeing Serral beat MaNa for the title. That's over twice as many as 2017's Austin WCS tournament (though that one was in April).
As I predicted last month, June ended the trend of declining viewer numbers and saw a slight increase, on the back off some strong tournaments like WCS Austin and the first few days of HSC XVII. With WCS Valencia upcoming in July, it's not unlikely that we'll see this upwards trend continue...
As always, suggestions and requests are welcome!

Huh? What's this?
I run Fuzic - which collects statistics and rankings of StarCraft II live streams - and these threads are a summary of the viewer numbers for the past month.

Data is sourced from fuzic, and additional up-to-date stats may be found there. But in these threads - which I will try to post at the beginning of every month - there will be a monthly summary so you can get a quick overview of that month's viewer numbers.

Inclusion criteria
The rankings list any stream that is reported on by the APIs of the various streaming services (Twitch, Azubu, etc). I have no way of verifying to what extent someone's viewers are legitimate, and therefore will not independently ban someone from the rankings. Please do not start a(nother) discussion about this in this thread.

The lists
"VxH", or "hours viewed" is the average amount of viewers multiplied by the amount of hours the streamer has streamed during that month. Basically, if for each viewer you count the amount of hours they watched the stream during the month, and add them up, you get this number. The list is sorted by this metric, as it gives a good impression of the streamer's activity through the month.

You can click the links below the charts for additional stats and a list you can sort by whichever metric you prefer.

50% you calling your opponents and allies trash/hackers (comparable with Avilo)
25% you alt-tabbed into another game during queue
25% vape noises and an empty chair

What does "views" mean here exactly? Note that this ranking uses 'hours viewed' as a measure, which is a different metric than 'live views'. Assuming some people watch the stream for less than an hour, it would be expected that the 'hours viewed' value would be somewhat lower than the 'live views' Twitch reports.

Livibee ended up at #46 in June with 10.7k hours viewed, so outside the ranking in this thread.

He does. Nice music, very good gameplay, nerdy humor and in-depth analysis from time to time.
Him dismantling avilo also is very entertaining.
