How do you compete with the titans of streaming? It’s so discouraging to new streamers. I know a content creator that has been in the game for some years now and her content is more quality than a huge percentage of the “top dog streamers” of today… Yet she only has roughly 2k subscribers.
I feel like the wrong people get discovered while others are left in the dark.
Smh.
In your opinion.
If people aren’t as sucessful as they’d like to be in streaming, they should be more honest with themselves and reflect on the quality of their content.
Of course in my opinion. Nobjeed to be snarky and start 
.
Sadly this is just how it tends to go for most types of content once a certain point of saturation has been reached. It’s damn near impossible to get started as a YouTuber too, and even if you manage to break through and become moderately popular it’s a constant battle to just to stay relevant let alone grow.
I don’t know that there’s any particular formula or trick that works reliably, you just have to keep plugging and throwing things against the wall. Consistently doing your thing rain or shine is probably the only thing that meaningfully increases your chances of making it.
It’s not “snark”. I’m demonstrating a point to you.
Just because a streamer’s content appeals to you personally doesn’t me it appeals to a viewing audience at large.
The easiest way is to advertise yourself on discords, facebooks, youtube , etc.
Be prepared to be mass reported and suspended for no reason. It happens to alot of small streamers of wow - the community knows the report system is broken and will do it on you just because
you dont its to late to grow on twitch unless you know someone.
make sure you spam your friends and acquaintances on social media, they love that stuff and aren’t annoyed at all by it
2k subscribers or viewers? 2k (paid) subs is actually pretty good, 2k viewers is still good but obviously isn’t the same money as 2k actual subs…
On a different forum, a poster I know decided to dip his toes into twitch streaming back in 2018. He plays random games like Rocket League and such - maybe sprinkles in a first-person shooter or two. Back then he had maybe 3-5 viewers (including me)…
…today, 4 years later in 2022, he has… maybe 7-8 viewers 
Yeah, unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be much “growth” unless you have a very interesting/entertaining personality (Asmongold) or are a 1%'er or “expert”-level in your respective game (examples: Naowh, Max, etc)
Sadly, I really enjoy some of the smaller “mom n’ pop” streamers down in the 20-100 viewer bracket, but I totally understand or “get” why they burn out or stop doing it since the subs/money just isn’t there to allow streaming video games to replace their real-life job
Alecthegreat from these forums runs a small PvP stream (about 10-15 viewers) I enjoy watching sometimes. Not sure about which other forum’ers/GD’ers run a stream, but if you have one feel free to post it here I’m always on the lookout for new streams to lurk in/listen to in the background 
Wrong only to you. I know this is gonna be shocking to you but the whole world isnt you nor do they have your tastes of entertainment.
Your friend or whomever it is isnt entitled to a huge audience just because they feel like they should have the peoples attention.
The entitlement is strong in this one… The streamers that have huge audiences are charismatic, entertaining and in some cases funny.
There are TV shows that I think are just downright boring and pathetic but they have an audience that keeps them going. I dont get to pick what the networks produce and I am not so entitled to think I should be allowed to.
In your opinion.
One of the small “mom n’ pop” M+ carry streamers (about 35-50 viewers) I watch frequently caught an automated silence recently for doing exactly that
From what I remember, he simply posted an ad/link to his stream advertising “FREE” carries (no swear words, no RMT, etc) and then it got brigaded by haters/trolls and he got silenced
Made for an… awkward few days where he literally had to have his friends/guildies advertise or list his LFG carry groups “for him” since silenced players can’t list a pug in LFG 
Drop her twitch username on here and I’ll check out her stream.
I follow a variety of streamers. Some just barely staying afloat and others like Asmongold who are literal millionaires. I watch Asmongold to see his latest drama. I watch Hazel because she likes to collect things. Missildine streams a wide variety of games. He was streaming Xenogears at one point. A great game from my vhildhood.
it’s the natural order of things the 1% will always have ~99% of what is to be had. I always report streamers linking because it’s annoying and I consider it spam- because it is.
