What are some of the most popular game streams on social media?

Mobile-friendly and reaction-heavy games like Garena Free Fire perform especially well on TikTok, while League of Legends, Valorant, and GTA V dominate on Twitch and YouTube. These games are ideal for short clips thanks to their fast-paced action and viral potential.
Can I generate clips from a Twitch link?
Yes — just paste your Twitch VOD link, and Kapwing’s AI will scan the video to find highlight-worthy moments. No need to download or upload the file manually.
How do I make Twitch clips that are worth sharing?
One key strategy is not to leave your streaming sessions completely up to chance. You want to approach each stream with the viewer in mind and imagine yourself as a host or entertainer. What would the game's audience find interesting? What would excite them or make them laugh?
Before you stream, brainstorm common in-game events and how you might add funny commentary or execute a bit of eye-catching gameplay. This way, you're more likely to naturally produce memorable moments you can clip and post on social media.
How do I find my Twitch clips?
You can find your Twitch clips in the Clips page of your Creator Dashboard. Go to Creator Dashboard > Content > Clips. Here, you can sort and filter clips, edit titles, and watch or share clips.
What clip lengths can I create?
You can generate clips starting from 10 seconds — just tell the AI chatbot the length you want.
What aspect ratios can the Clip Maker resize to?
Kapwing's Twitch to TikTok tool is built for social media, allowing you to easily resize content to fit any platform.
- 9:16 (TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, LinkedIn Short-form videos)
- 16:9 (YouTube)
- 1:1 (Instagram post square)

How to keep your webcam visible when converting to vertical videos
Twitch streams are usually horizontal (16:9), but short videos on social media are vertical (9:16). To preserve your content, you should consider:
- Reframe the video: Crop the gameplay area while keeping the webcam overlay in view.
- Split the screen: Another method is adding a vertical background or duplicate gameplay as a blurred vertical frame behind your clip, keeping both the gameplay and webcam visible via a split screen.
- Highlight the action: Focus on the main gameplay moment or your reaction; don’t try to fit everything from the original stream into one vertical clip.
