Felix Lengyel, widely known as xQc, has been awarded Streamer of the Decade at the 2025 eSports Award Show, a recognition celebrating his influence and consistency across ten years of livestreaming.
The announcement was made on the show’s official X account quickly trended online as fans and fellow creators congratulated the French-Canadian streamer.
Many praising his adaptability, personality, and enduring relevance.
