Xqc joins Luminosity Gaming

In an unexpected move, one of the largest streamers on Twitch, Felix "xQc" Lengyel joined Luminosity Gaming yesterday. The organisation used the announcement to generate hype for a following reveal that launched their Rising Stars initiative, designed to find the best "undiscovered streamers," giving them a shot to win $100,000.

xQc has been one the top streamers on Twitch for a while now, rising in success as he elevated his esports career through his time in the Overwatch League and in competitions. Since then, xQc has become a standout variety streamer, becoming known for his affinity of taking on very challenging games and beating them over the course of a few days.

Luminosity Gaming's Rising Stars programme is currently live and accepting submissions. The programme asks interested streamers to send in a highlight reel for a chance to be selected for the regular competition. Selected competitors will then go through a series of votes over several weeks until a victor is selected, and the prize pool is distributed.
