Dota 2 on Twitch — competition and audience

What is Dota 2 about?

Each match of Dota 2 involves two teams, both containing five players and occupying a fortified stronghold at either end of the map. Victory is achieved by destroying the enemy's Ancient, a building that is invulnerable until certain objectives are achieved. Each player controls a "Hero" character and focuses on leveling up, acquiring items and fighting against the other team to achieve victory during each match. The previous match has no connection with the next match. All heroes are playable as in you do not have to "purchase/unlock" heroes to play them. The game development team try their best at balancing the heroes so that all heroes can be played in any match

Probably not. Dota 2 has 569 streamers live, so you would open around #252 of 570 — far enough down the category that almost nobody browsing it would scroll to you, however many viewers it has.

About 2,265 of the 6,106 English viewers here are not watching the two biggest English streams — roughly 53 each if you split it with the 42 other English streams below them. You would start around #252, too far down for anyone browsing to find you.

Only 6,106 of the 57,009 viewers here (11%) are watching in English. 44 of the 569 live streams are in English.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.
