I only watch one streamer- JJdaggas. Dude is totally clueless, swings at everything and complains that his opponents are “center swinging”. This dude couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn but acts like he deserves to win every game. It’s the best channel on twitch. Pure comedy at all times even though he doesn’t realize it.
Concur. Listen to Lasorda talking about Bevackwa -I misspelled- and it is the same sentiment.
Dude, how bad do you want to call him out on his BS while he’s streaming? I never say anything cause I don’t want to be toxic but it’s truly laughable he thinks he’s good at this game.

Like I said. College Lefty and Ransom seem cool. I dont watch videos normally but happened upon them when looking for help with something. I would never watch theses kids purely as a form of entertainment. My kids watch some absolute garbage and giggle all night. I suppose this is just how life works.

My dad thought Billy Joel was too edgy.

Let's all sit back and remember the life of any of these "huge streamers" consists of sitting in a room and talking to themselves while playing a game and they get paid fairly handsomely for the same thing most of us do. Like screw it I wouldn't mind not working a real world job and just playing a game until I have a long enough beard that I look like I haven't been outside in 5 years but alas some of us have don't have 10 year olds with moms credit card to help pay rent

Not hating. If they make a living at it good for them.

Just reinforces my opinion about this generation.

No need to hate on them, if it's what they want to do and they enjoy it who cares? They've at least committed to something and have followings which is probably more success than a lot of people hating on them have had in life. -
I’d say 98% of them are fake. My youngest is a gamer and went through a fortnite phase. Dang near every tag had twitch or YouTube in it. I’d randomly look up the tag and nothing was to be found…. I’d venture to say it’s the same with this game.

What a different world we live in now. I couldn't even read half of the comments because they were talking about watching people play a video game. It is the most asinine concept that I have ever heard of. We are all playing the same game. Who TF cares what the other person shows you on Twtich or Youtube. It is a person playing a video game. How is that enjoyable to watch. Play the game yourself.

Remember it goes a step further people pay money to subscribe to their channels

C'mon. I am in my 50's and don't sound that out of touch.
When it comes to Twitch and YouTube. It is less about watching someone play a game and more about the person playing the game. Are they entertaining? Do they interact with their chat? Most streamers are streaming to fewer than 3 viewers, usually their friends. Right now there are several hundred people streaming the game on twitch for 1.9k viewers.
To answer the original question, I do not believe that there are fake streamers out there, but there are many that have probably given up on streaming already when they realized how hard it is to actually get viewers.

I played CollegeLefty. The only player I recognized from youtubes. Was never more into a game. He destroyed me but I learned quite a bit from how he set me up. The only other guy I would want to play is Ransom (dude with the hats) but he could beat my diamonds with commons.
Ransom and lefty both seem like good guys that don't talk down to their audience or whine and cry when something doesn't go their way. Basement dwellers like mcgunski, koogs, shelfy, fuzzy, rebel and that complete and utter garbage human being yourfriendkyle are just so ridiculous to watch. I have no idea why they have so many followers. I really enjoyed rebels meltdown, that was hilarious until he trimmed his video and deleted that part. I'd love to watch it again.
I'll admit, I haven't watched much of any of those guys for quite some time so things may be different now but I always check out lefty and ransoms vids.
When someone posted about that meltdown, I admit I watched it a few times.
You're welcome!

Thank you for changing your pic back to the dog. I have nothing against rainbows or what they stand for, I just like the dog pic more.
I was trying to bait a shark.

Same. I think last one I played I looked up and they had like 5 videos posted but most recent was like 2 years ago. Like, at this point I assume they are going for the intimidation factor because they obviously dont actively post.
Anyway....unless its a random event game or early BR run, I'm not good enough to hang in the same area where most of the well known streamers play.

Eh, I would not say they are fake. I would say they are people who streamed or intended to stream at some point and have since given it up and just never changed their PSN name.
The only reason people ever put TTV after their user name was to try and drive traffic to their channel. I can't imagine anyone ever did it because they thought it was intimidating.

I'm probably 50/50 on the fake vs. intimidation factor, I think it's an age group that thought it was cool but never followed through but 98% sure their fake... lol

If anything, I feel extra motivation instead of intimidation. No better feeling than making a streamer rage quit the game and his stream, I speak from experience.
lol ahhhhh yes CRYING REBEL

Most of them selling stubbs . Every player they pushing is the greatest . Week later that player price is going down and they pushing some other card. Havent benefitted one iota from them atall except if they say something coming it is. Wonder how they could possibly know

While possible, if they were not actually active....there would be no reason to make their team name YOUTUBE or TTVetcetc. If you're actively playing mlb21 with a team name, I'd expect content on your channels
