Dr Disrespect Questions Battlefield 6 Stream Rankings After Claiming 1.1M Views

Dr Disrespect isn’t too happy about being left out of Battlefield 6’s top streamer rankings — and he’s letting everyone know.


On August 12, 2025, Guy “Dr Disrespect” Beahm took to X (formerly Twitter) to point out that his Battlefield 6 early access streams pulled 1.1 million views in just 18 hours of gameplay. He made sure to add that those views came without using “drops” — Twitch’s system that gives viewers in-game rewards for watching.


In his words: “We had 1.1 million views with only 18 hours of game time and NO DROPS… but who’s really counting, right?” He followed it up by calling his Champions Club “the realest community in the business.”


A few hours later, the post was deleted. No explanation, just gone. Still, the message was clear — the Doc feels his Battlefield 6 performance is being overlooked.


The timing of his comments comes as Battlefield 6 enjoys a record-breaking launch. The title has already crossed 500,000 concurrent players and gained over 128,000 Twitch followers, according to Steam Charts. Yet, when it comes to the “Most Watched Battlefield 6 Streamers” lists compiled between August 7–11, Dr Disrespect is nowhere to be seen.


Part of the reason is simple: most of these rankings focus heavily on Twitch, and Dr Disrespect hasn’t streamed there since his permanent ban back in June 2020. These days, he’s all about YouTube (where he has 4.4 million subscribers) and Rumble, platforms that don’t always get the same visibility in ranking algorithms. So even if he’s pulling big numbers, the data might not be counted.


Then there’s his controversial past. In 2024, he admitted to sending inappropriate "sexting" messages to a minor via Twitch whispers back in 2017 — an incident that many believe was behind his Twitch ban. While he’s made a full return to streaming since late 2024, some communities and events have kept their distance. That might also explain why certain trackers don’t spotlight him.


Meanwhile, the Battlefield 6 charts are stacked with big names. According to Steams Charts, TimTheTatman leads with 2.66 million hours watched, followed by shroud at 1.85 million.


Here's the top 10 streamers list during Battlefield 6 Early Access and Open beta week 1:

  1. TimTheTatman - 2.66M hours (20h 50m airtime)

  2. shroud - 1.85M hours (43h 25m airtime)

  3. Stodeh - 863K hours (42h airtime)

  4. Recrent - 540K hours (36h 55m airtime)

  5. StoneMountain64 - 499K hours (21h 15m airtime)

  6. summit1g - 476K hours (30h 45m airtime)

  7. M3RKMUS1C - 443K hours (83h 20m airtime)

  8. TheBurntPeanut - 434K hours (28h airtime)

  9. TaisonTV - 431K hours (83h 30m airtime)

  10. ziGueira - 383K hours (57h 50m airtime)


Without proper cross-platform tracking, big streamers outside Twitch can easily get left off the leaderboard — even when they’re pulling blockbuster numbers.
