Kick might be signing some of Twitch\u2019s top talent, but it certainly isn\u2019t stealing them away for good, as has been made abundantly clear by xQc\u2019s recent non-exclusive deal with the startup.<\/p>
After a New York Times report<\/a> unveiled xQc\u2019s move to Kick<\/a> on June 16, the Juicer has streamed on Twitch almost every single day, taking just one day off from Twitch, which has become the way he starts his streaming day. Spending between 2-4.5 hours on Twitch, xQc then moves to Kick, where his airtime has ranged widely from just under two hours to more than eight in a single broadcast.<\/p>

So far, the strategy hasn\u2019t produced a one-to-one ratio in average viewership across both streaming platforms, but there\u2019s evidence that it\u2019s at least helping his Kick channel in some capacity. Since signing his deal, xQc has streamed on Kick 11 times, averaging between 36,000-55,000 viewers according to Streams Charts<\/a>. His Twitch streams during that time have averaged 53,000-78,000 viewers.<\/p>
