Looking at i_olga's history on Twitch and Counter-Strike 2

i_olga's "About" section on Twitch mentions her age and how streaming video games is a form of relaxation for her, which is uncommon for people in her age range:

"My name is Olga, I am 76 years old and I am a pensioner. I decided to become a streamer and I am not a newcomer here. When I play, I forget everything, you could say I detach from my worries, I am learning to manage and exploring the world of computer games, as there was nothing like this in my generation."

Further regarding her interest in Counter-Strike, she mentioned that the shooter opened her up to more games and made her more comfortable on a PC:

"I play not only CS, but also other games, for example: Minecraft, Metro, Tomb raider, Bioshock. Atomic Heart, Diablo 2, Thanks to CS:GO, I practically stopped looking at the keyboard and it became easier for me to play other games."

In February 2025, Olga peaked at over 14,250 live viewers watching her play CS2. Her streams typically last two to four hours, and she has been relatively consistent on Twitch since January 2021.
