      He just played it a lot at the start, when the big boys came along that were actually good at the game he got btfo. While top streamers may not be the world's most booksmart exactly, they are generally pretty clever and competent people. Ninja is an anomaly because he has never been in the top percent of anything in his life and likely the worst 10%, and you don't really get to see these people on an elite stage often. He doesn't know anything. He says ridiculous things and gets into ridiculous fights, he loses his cool all the time, and it's all based on a con that he is actually in any way good at Fortnite.

    Real advice that Ninja didn't give:
    1. Have your irl friends act as audience when you're just starting out. They can be your test audience, and bolster your numbers slightly.
    2. Play games that have an audience but aren't dominated by big streamers. It's no surprise someone came to watch a 'nobody' play Runescape. Obviously, play what you enjoy or are good at, but you'll have a tougher time competing against people with thousands of viewers with games like Fortnite and League.
    3. Raid other small streamers at the end of your stream. Bring your friend audience with you. Be friendly in chat, follow them etc. You can build a community if you befriend other streamers on a similar level of popularity to you- you can raid each other, collaborate, and often their followers end up coming to you and yours to them. It's mutually beneficial and I've made some new friends this way.

      4- make your own identity. the same way ninja has his blue hair, pick something of yourself that you could use for your identity, it will be easier for others to recognize you this way. for example picking your favorite food or animal to be ur dono alert, or make characters out of your background scenario (example would be the nutcracker guy from Danny). you can do the same thing from games, like how pewdiepie had the barrels and stephano. these are simple things that will make you recognizable and unique, and remember to make most of them to be unique, kind of a "you had to be there to understand" sort of thing. ofc all of this take time to have, remember your streaming persona will take a while to solidify.

      Well to be fair, I didn’t see Drew use his youtube audience at all…I don’t recall him tweeting or posting about it anyway (probably on purpose), plus I doubt that the general twitch audience would recognise Drew.
      It’s just an audience difference issue, plus Drew was actually trying to prove if the Masterclass worked without him using his existing fanbase. It didn’t, which makes the Masterclass all the more useless.
      Drew’s content also isn’t really…streamable.
      No one who enjoys video essays like Drew’s is scrolling twitch looking for Drew Gooden to stream. It’s not really a discoverability issue, it’s just a clear example that making it on Twitch is incredibly challenging if the odds don’t pull in your favour.
      There’s a lot of youtubers who would pull a draw if they started streaming, but if no one knew about it (again this is the point) no one would come. Pretty rare for someone among the massive sea of small streamers to stumble onto Drew and then know who he is, and then share with people over the internet etc etc
      Anyway, point is, Drew chose not to stack the odds in his favour to test the Masterclass.
      The point is made; Ninja’s masterclass is a waste of time and money. The twitch discoverability doesn’t come into it.

      Don't do that to yourself. If you feel like not in the mood for talking then don't do it man it is your stream. When I turn the stream on from time to time I don't bother to talk nonstop or I will mute the game or forget even that I'm streaming and as you see in the end there is no big difference whatsoever you do. I have the most views and highest engagement when I set my stream info To play only 1 game the whole time every time I stream and I say hey guys I'm playing only that champ all the time. one trick pony but I would use to play it out of his position or do builds or just start being more aggressive changing my playstyle. I noticed how while the number of views didn't rocket or get higher there was a big difference when someone started watching they would usually stay till the end of the stream. there were once 6-7 guys watching for more than 4 full hours but no one subscribed it is going to blow their heads up if they hit subs.

It's so fun at the beginning, everyone is excited, feels like anything could happen. And then you get to the 18 hour mark and start asking yourself questions like "Is this worth it? Is anyone ever going to know that this event took place? Is Wendy's open yet? Does Wendy's make breakfast food?" At a certain point the desire to eat a #1, Maple Bacon Chicken Croissant dipped in Chick Fil A sauce just wins out all other desires. Truly a humbling experience.

They can only know how they took advantage of the moment when it happened. And it makes me feel less sad to know that not everything I worked very hard on didn't work for reasons I didn't grasp as opposed to a factor I could have controlled, but didn't (aside from a fun-to-look-at-fridge). It was just because sometimes things don't work out. Like relationships with promise, but no chemistry or products that were before their time.
    I already knew that, because obviously I was there, working hard. And I know how hard it was 'cause I worked hard and I was there. And it was hard. And I was working. But it just didn't have that little moment of great fortune

    Honestly this is kind of a good example of how terrible twitch is for smaller creators. The front page of twitch basically only shows me popular 10k viewer streams of categories I have never watched once instead of smaller streamers streaming things I’d be interested in. As many issues as I have with RUclips, the system here is definitely better for allowing smaller channels a chance to be found.

      It is your job as a viewer to find the content you wanna watch. You can easily go into the category of your choice and sort to find smaller streamers if that's what you wanna support. At the end of the day it's the streamers job to get noticed not the platform.

    You can do everything right and still go nowhere. Luck is a huge factor and I hate content creators who don't acknowledge it.

    Before Ninja was famous, my bf played with him in Halo.. all he would talk about was how streaming was the next big hit. My bf was #1 in the world in Halo at the time. I wish he listened to him, his nickname from his mom is now Twitchdog Millionaire because he never believed ninja and believed he should stream..

    its funny to think that if this was Danny and someone came across him trying to be a successful streamer he'd be ratted out in seconds, but Drew does it and Samantha stays loyal to him and his cause

      well probably except it is kinda hard to discover new streamers on twitch but im sure theyd find a way

      Nah. If Danny did this he would’ve had the exact same result. Danny does his secret shit on Tik Tok, where discoverability is the absolute highest of all platforms. If Drew made a secret Tik Tok account, he would’ve been ratted out immediately just like Danny. It’s just impossible to find people on Twitch. It’s a severely saturated platform.

      @@yeahbravesound thing is tiktok will repeatedly show videos to people, and if someone interacts with it it'll show it to people with the same palate, so if, say, out of the 200 original (random) people that the vid is shown to, one is a fan of danny and comments "omg is that dannyy???" It'll be shown to 10 more people who are MUCH more likely to like Danny, interact, and cause it to be shown to MORE fans of Danny. twitch doesn't have an algorithm like that.

    Just imagining samantha being his only viewer who sat through and listened to fart sound effects for minutes is killing me.
