Twitch has made some crazy decisions lately, showing they are no longer a growth minded creator focused site, but shifting into a monetization minded company. Will it work? I don't know, I'm outta there, seeya GG

    wanted to talk about quitting Twitch and why I think the direction it is going is bad for new content creators. Do you guys think it's possible for a new creator to make it on Twitch 2023? I think yes, but... not many will.

    I didn't watch you on Twitch too much tbh. Busy life, kids, kids etc. But I've been watching you on YouTube since before 'the face reveal'. The only guy who I still watch every video without fail and now my son does the same. Keep it up man. All the best X x
  • @Nice__Job
    Videos like this are exactly the reason I watch you. I visited this channel for the CS News and insight, and stuck around for the personality. Your perspective and how genuine you are is something that I aspire to have. Wishing you lots of success.

    Damn WarOwl why’d you have to go so hard in there. I remember subbing to you back in 2014, it’s amazing to see how far you’ve come. I’m glad you made the right decision and followed what you really enjoy doing, rather than doing something you don’t.
  • With the stress in my life, WarOwl, I need more goofy. Your videos - even ones like this - provide a bit of a respite from my daily troubles. That's why I watch; you're providing a service to benefit my mental health.

    Surprise Towa appearance at 1:49. That the tab is sorted by most viewers in your region makes it even better. Looks like it's time for WarOwl to bust out a Live2D model and to join us in the Vtuber rabbit hole. Though in all seriousness: the Twitch viewer experience really has been going downhill overall in the past two years. Aside from the aggressive preroll ads, the video player is my biggest issue. I can watch Blast tournaments on YT in 1440p and 4k resolutions and DVR is instant. The Twitch stream on the other hand is still max 1080p and DVR is a mess.

    Damn WarOwl, I'm not thanking you for making me realize I'm getting old...I started watching back in ~2014, when you were "just" a voice. And I can't thank you enough for your content, and most importantly, your honesty/integrity/uprightness(?)...in other words, you are genuine and that's appreciated. Happy 2023 btw !
  • I'm super happy that you're jumping over to Youtube fulltime, do something you are passionate about and hopefully people will gather to support. I for one will try to always be here to give you that watch time and thumbs up! Genuinely enjoy all of your YT content ❤Much love from California ❤
  • Wow, I'm really grateful to see my name imortalized on your wall. The reason why I always wanted to support you and your channel, is because your content is what really introduced me to the game that I fell in love with, and that probably will be my favourite game of all time. That's why I always stayed as a sub on twitch, even though I didn't have much time to follow the streams over the past few months. Videos like this show me, that it definitely was the right decision to always support this channel, even in times where I had to take a hiatus from the game. You were always one of the most genuine and honest personalities in the CS:GO community, who never was afraid of speaking out on issues and controversial topics in the community. That's something I have a lot of respect for. You always seemed to care more for what's best for the players and the community, then what's best for the growth of the channel, and you we're always ready to make some "uncomfortable" decisions or say no to a lot of money (for example back when CS:GO-gambling was a huge thing), if it was the right thing to do. I just wanted to say "Thank you" for that. You deserve a lot of respect, and that's why I will continue to support this channel, no matter if it's on Twitch, Youtube or any other platform. Thank you, Warowl!
  • You are one of those creators whose content I want to watch no matter what's about. Keep it up, Warowl!
  • @HivoltageCS
    I really love how the background is coming together with all you great accomplishments. Hope the last panel can be soloq to global panel. With all the things you do, you're gonna need even more panels!
  • @Claudiu.
    That last part you said about us choosing to watch you, over millions of clips - that's all because of you buddy. Thank you for sharing your time and passion with us. Keep doing what you like!
  • 1:49 That is in fact an Apex Legends livestream, it's just in Japanese and being streamed by a Hololive VTuber (which is a real person playing a game behind an animated avatar)
  • @joaolima8480
    If you keep chasing the stuff you love, and goddamn its extremely apparent that you love cs, love making content and love being a goof, you will never lose your spark. Been watching forever and ur like one of the 3 creators on the site that i just know every video will be a banger everytime without fail. Screw Twitch, glad to see more youtube content from you
  • @Radiate404
    been subbed for a long time always loved this channel. Do what you love bc it does show in the content. ty for the entertainment these past years and I cant wait to see what's next!
  • Love these vids where you just talk about stuff. You're the best WarOwl!
  • I don't play CSGO anymore and I still watch your videos because you're entertaining and even when it's not a CSGO video, the insights and the way you present it is what makes your video impactful to me. Keep creating, WarOwl!
  • @SuperSergej13
    I admire how honest you are with yourself and your viewers. Being brave enough to admit that something doesn't work and leave it for good is one of the many things I like about you.
  • WarOwl, I cannot state how much your videos matter to me and my friends and I’m dead serious about that. When ever you upload, I get exited and watch your videos the second I’m available too. Keep up the wonderful work :)
  • @_wayneman_
    I've been chosing your content over others for many, many years now and if you don't stop creating content, I'll probably be watching for another 10+ years. Always friendly, educational, funny, no gambling crap and constantly on top in terms of quality! You simply deserve every single click, view, like and sub! Best of luck to you outside of twitch!
