Tyler Steinkamp, popularly known as Tyler1 or T1, is an online personality and Twitch streamer who gained immense popularity on the platform, boasting over 5 million followers. His rise to fame occurred in 2016 after facing multiple bans from 22 accounts due to toxic behavior in the game League of Legends. Despite initial reform promises, he continued to display toxicity, which notably led to a ban by Riot Games, making him one of the few players to receive such a ban for League of Legends.
However, by the end of 2017, his ban was lifted under specific conditions: he had to stream without exhibiting abusive behavior. Additionally, he initiated the Tyler1 Championship Series, initially a satire of the League of Legends Championship Series but later developing into its own event.
Tyler1 stands at 5 feet 6 inches tall, which is below the average height for men in the United States. Despite his reputation as a streamer, he defies the stereotype of an out-of-shape gamer. He attended Central Methodist University and was part of the football team, playing as a running back.
As of now, Tyler1 ranks as the 37th most followed account on Twitch, with 5.3 million followers, and holds a considerable net worth estimated to be around $4.3 million, positioning him among the top Twitch streamers in terms of followers and financial success.
