Setup Guide

Last updated June 9, 2026

GamerNODE has two halves: the Twitch Extension your viewers see on stream, and the companion app that runs on your gaming PC and reads your live match. Set both up once — after that, rounds open and resolve automatically every ranked game.

The short version Install the extension on Twitch, run the companion app, sign in with Twitch. Done — your next ranked Solo/Duo game opens a prediction round by itself.

1. Install the extension on your channel

  • In the Twitch Creator Dashboard, open Extensions and search for GamerNODE.
  • Install it and activate it as your Video Overlay (Video - Fullscreen).
  • The overlay sits bottom-left and stays idle until a round opens — it never covers your gameplay with anything you didn't start.

2. Install the companion app

  • Download the Windows installer and run it.
  • Windows SmartScreen may warn about an unrecognized app while GamerNODE is in beta — the installer isn't code-signed yet. Click More info, then Run anyway.
  • The companion is a small desktop app that reads your live League match locally (Riot's Live Client Data API on your own PC) — it never touches your Riot account or credentials.
  • Windows is supported today; macOS is planned. League has no Linux client, so there is no Linux build.

3. Sign in with Twitch

  • Click Sign in with Twitch in the companion. Your browser opens Twitch's standard authorization page — we never see your password.
  • Signing in automatically pairs the app with your channel. No codes, no copy-paste.

4. Optional settings

  • Stream delay — if you broadcast with a delay, set the same delay in Settings. The app holds the lock and the First Blood reveal by that long, so results never spoil ahead of your stream.
  • Chat messages — choose which round announcements (open / locked / result) the app posts to your chat as you. All of them can be turned off.
  • Language — the app and overlay speak English, Português, Español, Deutsch, Français, and Italiano.

5. Play

Queue ranked Solo/Duo on Summoner's Rift. The prediction window opens at champ select, viewers lock their calls by 0:30 of game time, and the round resolves itself the moment First Blood happens. Other queues (flex, normals, ARAM, customs) don't open rounds.

Didn't work?

  • No round opened — rounds only open for ranked Solo/Duo on Summoner's Rift, with the companion running and signed in.
  • Overlay says "waiting for match" — make sure the companion shows your game on the Live Match tab.
  • Anything else — see Support.
