After his record-breaking viewership, a Valorant fan started analyzing the stats. And according to the fan, Tarik’s main source of earning is through Twitch subs and ads on his stream.

The revenue split between Twitch and streamers is about 50-50. The lowest level of subscription, however, comes at $4.99. This means an amount of approx $2.50 coming to the streamers for every subscription.

Going by the latest data, Tarik had almost 25,000 subs on his stream. Calculating the product, he earns almost $62,500 each month from subs alone. Furthermore, this means he earns over $750,000 per year from subs. However, this number grows exponentially when the earnings from Twitch ads are factored in.

Multiplying this small amount with the whopping 90,000 average viewers Tarik brings, it totals out to $50,000 per month. Furthermore, the yearly earnings from the ads alone bring $600,000 a year. Combining the yearly amounts from subs and ads, Tarik earns about $1.35 million per year.
