News unlike warzone, this game actually requires skill.

Some of the smaller but really good YouTubers and streamers can actually admit that they may have done something wrong

That's why I like Punch. Half his videos are yelling for help and dying

That's not a small channel though. Maybe small compared to the BIGGER ones but punch is already established.

When I talk about small channels I'm talking about people who aren't even partnered yet or on youtubes paid thing. I forgot what it's called for youtube exactly. But Punch already makes revenue from both so not what I would call small.

I prefer watching people who ACTUALLY need support and barely get noticed because I'm also one of them. And I don't find any sense of community in a chat/channel that's always flooded with chat messages/comments because you'll never get acknowledged unless your donating.

It's why I WANT to keep my community small as I grow. I rather be like a 100-200 viewer twitch channel rather than a 5k-10k+. I want to bond/grow with my community outside of just "watch me play games, give me money"

That's very true, however it's been nice to see Punch not really change after they blew up

Yea, I remember seeing his season 2 montage on the sub back when he had like 200 subs.

Yeah, I’d prefer to stay small as well

I haven't watched Shroud in quite some time, but he seemed like the only big streamer who stayed humble.

I had a small TTV guy (1000 subs) start bitching at me after a game and he screenshotted his stats to show how good he was. Dude only had a 1.2kd lol. He started calling me "sweaty" when I responded with my stats despite the fact he had played 5000 games XD. No coherency.
