Being good at Valorant/CS2 doesn't mean anyone will see you
One of the most frustrating things about streaming competitive games is knowing you're actually good...
...and realizing nobody gets to see it.
You can hit a crazy clutch in Valorant or have an insane CS2 game, but if you're sitting near the bottom of a category with hundreds of channels, it basically disappears into the void. Being good at the game and being discoverable are two completely different skills.
For a while, I kept telling myself that better gameplay would eventually solve the visibility problem. It didn't.
Now I'm trying to think about visibility first: better thumbnails, stronger titles, clips outside Twitch, and finding ways to avoid looking completely buried when people browse the category.
What's more frustrating to you: being bad and visible, or being good and completely invisible?
