What is Guardian Heroes about?

A supreme being created the universe to find ultimate warriors to hire as its personal soldiers. A vicious battle was waged between the Earth and Sky Spirits. The Sky Spirits bestowed incredible powers upon the humans, effectively making powerful wizards for their own gain. The human wizards joined the effort against the Earth Spirits, banishing them into the darkness. Soon after this was accomplished, the Sky Spirits grew fearful and jealous of the humans, and banished them all into the darkness with the Earth Spirits. Mankind instead opted for a more physical approach to life, and the Time of the Sword began.

Should I stream Guardian Heroes on Twitch?

0/100 · Closed off· 3 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The only English stream here holds all 3 English viewers — once you take it out there is nothing left to reach.

The only English stream here holds all 3 English viewers. There is nothing left over for a second.

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.

Where to buy

All plain links straight to the official stores. Some will become affiliate links later, and they’ll be marked with a ♥ when they are — you’ll always be able to tell, and the unmarked ones will always be there.

Is Guardian Heroes too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 1 person is streaming Guardian Heroes, and the one English stream holds all 3 English viewers — so the room is quiet because that audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.
