- Genre: LoL / esports commentary
- Quick profile: Former LEC analyst turned full-time streamer, Caedrel draws massive audiences for high-level League analysis and live tournament commentary.
- Why this chair fits: Caedrel regularly streams long esports sessions—often up to 12 hours. The Titan Evo suits this workload by supporting clean, neutral postures without feeling restrictive. Rather than locking the body into a single “perfect” position, it encourages subtle movement and posture variation—ideal for extended broadcasts.

ZackRawrr chair: Herman Miller Embody
Gaming rank (watch time, 2025): #2 | Watch Time: 5.2B minutes (365 days) | Channel
In 2024, ZackRawrr (aka Asmongold) used a Razer Iskur gaming chair. In 2025, he switched to a Herman Miller Embody office chair.
- Genre: MMORPGs (WoW), gaming commentary
- Quick profile: Streaming as ZackRawrr, Asmongold attracts massive audiences through marathon World of Warcraft sessions and unfiltered commentary on MMO systems, player behavior, and the wider games industry—often generating top-tier watch time with minimal on-screen theatrics.
- Why this chair fits: ZackRawrr streams marathon World of Warcraft sessions from a cluttered, low-structure setup. The Herman Miller Embody’s Backfit system “cups” the upper spine to suspend the torso against gravity, helping preserve alignment even when posture breaks down during long, unfocused sessions. Also, its 12-year warranty reflects a build designed to survive years of hard, indifferent use..
Embody at a Glance
ChairsFX Rating: 4.0 out of 5.0 stars
- Concept: Upper-back support that stabilizes the torso rather than emphasizing lumbar pressure
- Highlight features: Flexible pixelated backrest, wide flat seat pan, exceptionally wide armrest adjustment range

- Warranty: 12 years
- Gorgeous Pixelated backrest design

Kato Junichi chair: AKRacing Premium
Gaming rank (watch time, 2025): #3 | Watch Time: 5.02B minutes (365 days) | Channel
In his streams, Junichi Kato uses an AKRacing Premium gaming chair—a former flagship model from AKRacing. The company ceased global operations in 2024, and the chair is no longer in production or available for sale.
- Genre: Variety gaming / endurance streams (JRPGs, retro games, challenge runs)
- Quick profile: Japan’s most-watched solo streamer, Junichi Kato is known for his long, unscripted gaming sessions and raw, unfiltered commentary. His appeal comes from endurance, authenticity, and the sense that viewers are “hanging out”, rather than watching a polished performance.
- Why this chair fits: This was a flagship model from AKRacing, a well-known gaming chair brand that had a strong presence and following among gamers in Japan and beyond. Its Premium chair offered a full set of ergonomic features that made it a solid choice for Junichi’s long streaming sessions.
Note: AKRacing ceased operations in 2024. Read about its role in gaming chair history, or review the archived specifications of the (discontinued) Premium chair.
Jynxzi chair: Wooden Dining Chair
Gaming rank (watch time, 2025): #4 | Watch Time: 4.3B minutes (365 days) | Channel
Despite reportedly earning over $450,000 per month(2) from streaming, Jynxzi has spent the past few years broadcasting from a basic wooden dining chair.
- Genre: Rainbow Six Siege (high-intensity competitive FPS)
- Quick profile: Jynxzi is one of Twitch’s fastest-rising FPS streamers, known for raw, unfiltered Rainbow Six Siege gameplay and explosive reactions. His chaotic energy, trash talk, and nonstop streaming cadence drive massive engagement despite (or because of) his deliberately low-frills setup.
- Why this chair fits: Jynxzi streams 30+ hours per week from a wooden dining chair, bouncing around with manic energy and frequently knocking it over for dramatic effect. Given his chaotic, high-intensity format, a simple, sturdy chair makes more sense than any ergonomic setup.
Ibai gaming chair: Titan Evo Stealth
Gaming rank (watch time, 2025): #5 | Watch Time: 4.03B minutes (365 days) | Channel
Since 2020, Ibai has streamed from Secretlab Titan chairs. He used a Titan 2020 Series Stealth for several years, then upgraded to the Titan Evo Stealth after his major weight-loss transformation in late 2024.
- Genre: variety / esports commentary / event-driven streams
- Quick profile: Ibai is one of Twitch’s most influential Spanish-language creators, known for massive live events, esports commentary, interviews, and high-production variety streams that routinely pull record-breaking audiences.
- Why this chair fits: Ibai’s streams are long, talk-heavy, and less posture-critical than high-intensity gameplay. A Secretlab Titan suits this use case with a wide, stable seat, integrated lumbar support, and relaxed ergonomics that don’t require constant adjustment or strict posture discipline.

CaseOh chair: Aeron Remastered
Gaming rank (watch time, 2025): #6 | Watch Time: 3.7B minutes (365 days) | Channel
CaseOh streams using a Herman Miller Aeron Remastered, a high-end ergonomic office chair well suited to long, reaction-heavy sessions that prioritize comfort, breathability, and low-effort posture support.
- Genre: variety / reaction (occasional multi-player chaos games)
- Quick profile: caseoh_ built his audience through highly reactive, exaggerated live commentary that translates well into viral clips, making him one of Twitch’s fastest-growing variety streamers.
- Why this chair fits: CaseOh spends long hours seated while reacting, chatting, and occasionally gaming rather than maintaining rigid, forward-leaning play postures. The Aeron’s tensioned mesh suspension distributes weight evenly, promotes airflow, and allows constant micro-movement without requiring conscious posture control. This makes it ideal for heavier or larger-bodied streamers and for sessions where posture discipline naturally breaks down.
Aeron at a Glance
ChairsFX Rating: 4.5 out of 5.0 stars
- Concept: adaptive mesh designed to keep the body balanced in neutral sitting postures
- Key features: 8Z Pellicle mesh, forward seat tilt, two lumbar support options

- Warranty: 12-year manufacturer warranty
- Easy to use: The suspension mesh naturally guides users into clean, neutral postures.
- Forward tilt: One of the few chairs that allows a downward-sloping seat (supports active, forward-leaning postures).
- Configurable builds: Multiple frame finishes, lumbar options, and size variants are available.
- Limited ‘wow’ factor: Delivers function over flair, with few experiential extras.
- Restrictive seat design: Hard, bladed seat edges force users to sit with planted feet at all times.
- Narrow recline range: The limited 93°, 102°, and 113° recline enforces perpetual upright work postures.
- Outdated armrests: 3D adjustability is limited versus modern multi-axis (4D–6D) designs.
Aeron Remastered vs Aeron Gaming Chair: The Aeron Gaming chair is a preconfigured Aeron Remastered with Onyx Frame, Posturefit back support, 3D arms, and full tilt controls (available in sizes B and C).

Other Top Twitch Streamers (#11–33)
Beyond the top 10, the following streamers continue to drive enormous watch time on Twitch. While their formats vary, their chair choices reinforce the same trend: high-volume streamers overwhelmingly favor durable, ergonomic seating for long sessions.
Low-Commentary, Long-Session Streamers
Among the next tier of top Twitch streamers, one chair appears repeatedly: the Herman Miller Embody. Shroud, Gaules, tarik, Recrent, Trymacs, and zarbex all stream from Embody chairs—despite differences in language, genre, and region.

Conclusion
The data paints a clear picture of how today’s most-watched Twitch streamers actually sit. Among the 33 gaming-focused channels with the highest watch time across all of 2025, office chairs outnumber gaming chairs 19-13 (Jynxzi uses a wooden dining chair).
Notably, Herman Miller models—especially the Embody—dominates long-session setups. This trend is most pronounced in North America and Asia-Pacific, where ergonomic office seating is the norm rather than the exception.
Gaming chairs remain relevant—particularly in Europe—where creators continue to favor structured, high-back designs like the Secretlab Titan Evo and brand-affiliated models.
The takeaway is simple: the streamers driving the most engagement on Twitch tend to choose chairs that support frequent movement, and marathon sessions. Whether that’s a high-end office chair built for endurance or a well-tuned gaming chair designed for flexibility depends on the creator—but the era of “one posture fits all” seating is clearly over.
