Every now and then I spend some time watching video game streamers. I am in no way a gamer, but I thoroughly enjoy watching these people do what they love. They are entertainers, and fully embody my favorite quote “If you love what you do you’ll never work a day in your life.”

Small streamers are unpartnered, and waiting to be noticed by Twitch Mods. They are the real workhorses of the streaming community.

Highlighted below are some of the streamers I follow, the games they play, and why I love to hang out with them.

StayYourBlade

The Blade Guild is my favorite group of streamers to hang out with. The leader of this fantastic group of friends, Blade (as we call him in stream), is an english education major with a passion for helping other people chase their dreams. He streams because he loves video games, the gaming culture, and because he loves the interaction that streaming allows between himself and his viewers. Blade also has a Twitter, Instagram, and a Discord channel where his followers can interact with him off of stream, and he is also making a push toward weekly Youtube videos. When I first started watching StayYourBlade on Twitch, he was streaming Hearthstone, but other games you can watch in the Blade Guild consist of Overwatch, Watch Dogs, GTA 5, and some random independant games from time to time.

KindaCreepy87

Creepy, as we call him in the Blade Guild, is another awesome streamer. He is another variety streamer who plays games like Uncharted 4, Minecraft, or GTA. You will notice that he loves Mountain Dew. He also streams because he loves the interactive part of being a Twitch streamer. Creepy brings fun to every group chat he is in and works hard to answer any comments he recieves while on stream.

Redux_Hiro

Redux, like Creepy is a member of the Blade Guild. Hailing from Canada, he claims his beard is nicer than Blade’s, however agrees with the guild’s mission statement of hating all things Bieber. He is sort of new to streaming and enjoys playing many of the same games as Blade and Creepy.

So rather than watch late night TV, I urge you guys to give each of these guys a follow and check out their stream from time to time. They are all awesome, very entertaining, and deserving of your time. Last but not least, if you do enjoy watching any of these streams while they are live, hit them up with a chat letting them know that an article sent you to their stream and how much you are enjoying it!
