A tier list on a streaming screen with a chat panel

Tier lists are one of the easiest segments to run live: the format is instantly understandable, every placement is a talking point, and chat always disagrees.

Pick a topic chat knows

Choose something your community has strong opinions about — the game you play most, its characters or maps, or a community in-joke. Our templates load full rosters in one click, so you don’t waste airtime typing.

Set up your screen

  • Use a dark browser window and zoom so the board fills the capture area.
  • Keep the item pool visible so viewers can see what’s coming.
  • Rename the title to something like “Chat decides: Season 6 heroes”.

Involve chat

  • Poll each item: read it out, run a quick poll, then place it where chat lands.
  • Streamer veto: you get three vetoes per stream. Use them wisely.
  • Random mode: use the random tier list generator to roll a surprise topic.

Pace it

Aim for about a minute per item. If chat is split, park the item in the pool and come back to it at the end.

Share the result

Press Export PNG for a thumbnail or social post, or Share link so viewers can open the board and make their own version.
