I just hit the same roadblock after discovering the new API.
Before I only had to 1 request with kraken/streams, but now I have to 2 more request on top of that, just for 2 lines of data;
-
helix/streams(for initial request) -
helix/games(to decode the game id) -
helix/users(to get profile image)
This really puts a pressure on the request limit.
At least Kraken is online for another year…
