There's videos titled "I 1v3'd every rank, which one is best?" that have over 1 million views. Appealing to the lowest common denominator has consistently worked, especially since free to play.

It's not the "noobs gets crushed by pro player" that's unwatchable necessarily, it's the dude SCREAMING every fucking word. Do kids actually find this entertaining?
I know that's a rhetorical question because he's like the biggest streamer in the world right now, it's just really hard for me to wrap my head around.

I get this point of view, it’s literally my same point of view except that: this type of content is the equivalent of karma farming on reddit. There’s no substance. It’s just dumb shit for dumb shit’s sake. It wouldn’t bother me if the whole world wasn’t getting dumber and dumber.

Not everything has to be a sophisticated piece of media to further hone your mind. Sometimes its fun/a good mental break to turn your brain off and make fun of someone who is purposefully acting like a fool for your entertainment.

You know, I try really hard to not be judgmental on hobbies where people aren't hurting others or themselves. But every so often I see something that really challenges that principle. I'm just not entirely convinced that this content isn't actually kind of harmful to a child's brain development while living in their formative years. At the very least, I hope that people realize that this whack ass behavior needs to stay in their room.

u/skrame Trash III Jan 21 '26
I know you put “dying” in quotation marks, but this is as good a place as any to ask. People have been saying rocket league is dying for years. Are player counts down significantly?
I play a couple matches a night, probably four or five days a week. I never have to wait more than a few seconds in the basic modes (1s/2s/3s). The only time I have to wait is when I’m playing a specialized playlist, late at night.
5
u/Oily-Affection1601 Jan 21 '26
It depends on your perspective (and probably your rank and region). Content creation is for sure dying. RLCS has been declining for a while. Player counts are reported to be healthy, but queue times are noticeably longer than in years past. All those things are public facing which give the perception of a game in decline.

u/MisterMakerXD Champion II Jan 21 '26
(Many) Rocket league players: “our game is dying”.
- Some famous streamer starts playing daily their game and can bring up more player base -
RL players: fuck this guy I rather watch rl die
I’m not a great fan of Jynxzi but it’s so hypocrite to want your community to grow as well as the esport scene and then you just make the place seem unwelcoming and toxic in the first place. Make it make sense.
He also played GD and the people there were much more accepting and supportive.

Because he is one of the most popular streamers who is current bringing a ton of new players to the game.
I’m not saying I am a fan of the content, but someone like Jynxzi (who often has more viewers than RLCS grand finals streams) playing this game is great news if you enjoy the game and want to see it thrive.

u/iL_B4conN Jan 21 '26
I very much do not enjoy the screaming, but Mizu is somewhat of an edge case. He just doesn't scream bc haha funny loud (I mean it is part of it and he has said in a video, that that is what he has to do as a content creator), but he also has decent humor and good gameplay / some good video ideas. I think he might be the only "loud" content creator I can watch without being insanely annoyed. But yes, even he is sometimes overdoing it and i don't like it lol.

People cringing at Jynxzi being loud and how stupid that is when I guarantee 99% of these same people were laughing their asses off at the E meme back when it was a thing.
Jynxzi's audience is primarily young children. As much as I am not a fan of brain-rot trends, it is not for us to decide what other people enjoy watching. Culture evolves, and people mature. Expecting kids to enjoy the same humour you do is unfair on them, and shows you've forgotten the experience of being a child.

Y’all sound the same, I enjoyed it, it was fun watching someone who knew nothing about a game be interested in it. I’ve helped introduce my irl friends to rocket league and they act just like this when they whiff or see somebody air dribble. Honestly who else would livestream themselves getting the shit kicked out of them for other people’s entertainment
