What Is TwitchStorm? The Pro Player Gear Database Explained

TwitchStorm (twitchstorm.com) is a free, searchable database of the gear, PC specs and streaming setups used by pro players and streamers. As of October 2026, its homepage lists 334 players, 869 products and 12 games, and its rankings show which mice, monitors, keyboards, headsets and mousepads dominate at the top level.

What does TwitchStorm track?

TwitchStorm tracks the hardware that competitive players and large streamers use, from peripherals to the parts inside their PCs, with every entry tied to a named player.

The data covers:

• Peripherals: mice, monitors, keyboards, headsets, mousepads and earphones
• PC specs: CPU, graphics card, storage, cooling and case
• Setup and streaming gear: chairs, microphones and cameras
• 12 games: Counter-Strike 2, VALORANT, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Rainbow Six Siege, PUBG: Battlegrounds, Marvel Rivals, Overwatch 2, Call of Duty: Warzone, League of Legends, Dota 2 and Deadlock

The player filters on the homepage show how the roster is spread: 119 CS2 players, 92 VALORANT players, 33 Fortnite players and 85 streamers and YouTubers, with smaller groups such as Warzone (9), League of Legends (8), Apex (6) and Rainbow Six Siege (6). All data is labelled October 2026.

How are TwitchStorm's gear rankings counted?

Each product is counted once per player, based on that player's current setup, and the result is shown as a share of pros. The TwitchStorm gear rankings hub is calculated across 249 pros.

Because not every profile lists every category, the base differs slightly from page to page: the mouse ranking covers 247 pros, keyboards 246 and monitors 241. Category pages also show a trend column (pros gained or lost since December 2025), a list of recent switches and breakdowns by game and by brand.

As of October 2026, the category leaders are:

• Mouse: Logitech G Pro X2 SUPERSTRIKE, 18%
• Monitor: ZOWIE XL2566K, 24%
• Keyboard: Wooting 60HE v2, 11%
• Headset: HyperX Cloud II, 16%
• Mousepad: Artisan Ninja FX Zero Soft, 13%

The hub also ranks chairs, graphics cards and CPUs, led by the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 (28%) and AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D (23%).

How do TwitchStorm player pages cite sources?

Every player page links to the public source its gear list was compiled from, through a link labelled "source", and carries a data date because gear can change at any time.

A typical profile, such as m0NESY's CS2 setup page, is split into Gear, PC Specs, Setup & Streaming, Changes and FAQ. Each item shows how many indexed pros use the same product; m0NESY's ZOWIE XL2586X+, for example, is listed as used by 52 of 249 pros. A "Setup changes" block records his swaps dated October 2026. The page covers hardware only, with no DPI or sensitivity values.

How do you search TwitchStorm?

Use the search box on the TwitchStorm homepage to look up either a player or a product. Searching a product returns the pros who use it, which turns the database into a quick "who uses this?" tool.

1. Type a player name or a product, for example "Wooting 80HE".
2. Narrow the list with the game filters (CS2, VALORANT, Fortnite and so on) or the Streamers & YouTubers filter.
3. Open a player page to see the full setup and its source link.
4. Jump to a category ranking to compare the product against what other pros use.

For creators rather than esports pros, the trending streamers page covers 85 creators. It ranks them by average viewers over the last 30 days, using TwitchTracker's public rankings, and adds a "rising stars" list based on follower growth. As of October 2026, Kai Cenat leads with 60.6K average viewers, ahead of CaseOh (56.6K) and Caedrel (51.1K).

Who is TwitchStorm for?

TwitchStorm is built for players who want to know what the best actually use before they buy.

• Competitive players shortlisting a mouse, monitor or keyboard
• Fans who want to copy a specific pro's hardware
• Streamers comparing microphones, cameras and PCs
• Writers and analysts who need dated share-of-pros numbers

Is TwitchStorm independent?

TwitchStorm earns commissions through the Amazon Associates program, but its affiliate disclosure states that commissions do not influence which products are listed. Every player page shows the gear that player uses, whether or not it earns the site anything, and TwitchStorm is not affiliated with Amazon, Twitch, any game publisher or any listed player.

TwitchStorm belongs to a small network with two sister sites: HLPLANET (hlplanet.com), which publishes keyboard, mouse and controller reviews, and TwitchGFX (twitchgfx.com), which offers animated Twitch overlays and stream graphics.
