How does one become a popular WoW streamer?

Do please enlighten me. I could some professional advice. I do have a stream, I am not new to streaming but I suck completely in luring others to check my content. Not that I have seriously started World of Warcraft yet. Your tips,tricks and secrets are most welcome.

It seems there are hundreds of WoW streamers daily and I fear I will forever be stuck down in the bottom with 1-3 viewers on average daily basis.

I have noticed Female streamers gain extremely rapid popularity for just being a “beautiful female” on stream, some of them no offence play little, it appears as if they are seeking attention, nothing else paying little care for the actual game.

Thank you kindly and have a great day!

Asmongold was asked about this on his stream.And what he noted is that its always good to have a youtube guide and start with having guides for stuff,or finding something niche and grow around that,and over time expand other content.
Then you move into twitch stream and grow your following with it.It is a long period,of lets say over a year to get noticed and grow.
The thing you must note is,you even if it all end up good wount have more then 2-3k numbers.
Asmongold and Sodapopin are two exceptions.

You would probably need to build a youtube channel in order to grow on Twitch.

Talent, experience, timing
It’s just like an artist or a clown, you either strike ppl as fun to waste time on watching you or not.

The key to success on Twitch is to act very entertaining and humorous which results in a big energy loss, as well as engaging in chat and mostly dumb Twitch memes and the latest drama, as well as doing something unique/different in comparison to the top streamers.

Main ingredient though is to be consistent. Even if you think you aren’t interesting enough to maintain an audience, consistently streaming and getting noticed, then doing things with other streamers, especially if they’re bigger than you, helps a ton. Being a pro at a game also helps a lot but then that’s all that the viewers expect from you.

Also (and obviously) showing your face on cam is important to streams because they like to see the person playing the game.

It is not right to call Asmon awkward, I am sure he has the enormous experience and knowledge regarding the game hence 1 million+ followers. I do not believe they purely follow him because of his awkwardness.

It’s pretty much all about your personality, since it’s a pretty boring game to watch.

A great reply also sad as well. Dumb memes,drama gibberish talk , how people love shallow things these days. I agree with being unique. Consistency is the key,yes.

Make beef with another streamer who plays wow

“I have noticed Female streamers gain extremely rapid popularity for just being a “beautiful female” on stream, some of them no offence play little, it appears as if they are seeking attention, nothing else paying little care for the actual game.”

It is a deeply disfunctional relationship on both ends.
The streamer needs attention on a daily basis and is too lazy for a proper job and the viewers need their daily dopamine in the form of interacting with a hot woman they could never even talk to irl.

It does not make sense, Hold on, Is streaming way more about actual game then person behind it? Why would you be there is game is boring? It does not make sense. I find it absurd when 90% males will come to watch a gorgeous female and comment about her and nothing but her, they do not care about the game. It breaks the point of streaming games. Its completely messed up. For instance I came there to watch the newest guide,the world,exciting raids, do tell me why would it matter who is streaming? Unless the streamer is abusive.

I seen not many female wow streamers sadley
I know of hazel
Thats actually only female streamer i follow who play wow
Because i havent seen alot of other woman who play wow

Exactly, which is ruining others as well. Perhaps ruining is a bit over-stressed word, maybe a distraction. You will have a person A with wonderful guides,quality content . He is a great player and so on, but No let us all watch some super model talking stupid things and ignore other dedicated streamers. I am not attacking or hating gender , I find completely absurd and saddening , in such case they could create some chat room, they do not belong in gaming stream community. You have said it correctly.

Hell no. Why would i watch a bland boring person play a game? It’s all about the person playing.

Disagreed. Absolutely wrong, then you care not for World of Warcraft, you might as well to find a random chat room. That is the mentality which ruins Twitch these days. Its about game ,quality of the content ,their dedication not if some person is less cool or more beautiful. I am going to refrain of some comments, but truly if you care about person playing , then you little to no interest about World of Warcraft. Sad. @Sailor

Just hop on the hate trashwagon and spit on every aspect of the game, easy free click$ guaranteed.

Wants and needs, fulfil them and you’d have a following for yourself, also being genuine tends to bring people a lot more.

I’ve never tried streaming, however in my country people would come from all parts of the country to see my brother play and in the game, people would go nuts when they interacted with him, simply because he was known as one of the best locks in the battlegroup and world wide.

People wanted to see a skilled player in action, he had a nice personality irl and so people came to see him.

There is also inclusion, people like to be included and my brother often formed cults and troll guilds and sparked battles that people genuinely had fun with.

You can see this with the trend online personalities are making.

Pewdiepie with the bro Army.
Kardashians with the Kardashians
Logan paul with the logang

etc etc, feeling like you are a party of a community often gives you a drive and motivation and genuinely makes you happy, if you can let people feel like that then I’d wager you’d get a nice following.
