I've just recently begun streaming and haven't really caught on to an identity like some of the more regular streamers. Please help me find my own identity and streaming style.

Hence I'd like to to ask for some feedbacks and suggestions on my streaming style.

What is entertaining to you guys?
How much should I be talking? Should I be joking around or focusing on strategy?
No I will not go shirtless.

Re: Stream Feedback

One thing which I like in a streamer is consistency in times when you stream. I'll be honest - I've only jumped on your stream a couple of times, but some people (me included but I'm trying to fix this...) just stream randomly and sometimes viewers get annoyed/sad if they miss out on "live" content. Like I said I don't know for you if this applies; but I'm always an advocate of the super-high level players having proper scheduling on their streams. While yes I know there are a billion ways to "keep track" of a stream such as the TL mod for chrome/ff, or the emailing system for when someone is live - sometimes it's just easier to think "Well, it's 6:30pm and I'm cooking my dinner, what to do? Oh wait, it's 6:30pm! Light is streaming! Lets do this shizzle!".

And also as I mentioned in a vlog post on my Youtube; Please please make sure you utilise social media as best as possible. Tweet/FB (if you have a personal FB fan page) when you're going live. Make sure Twitch is connected to your twitter/fb so this happens automatically if you must. Some people like to manually tweet/FB when they go live with a proper description of what they are planning on doing which can pique interest of some viewers, eg "Streaming some Colossus speedprism drops, which me be a badass!" or whatever. (And this goes for everyone, not just Ray) When you tweet your stream going live, generally if I catch it in my twitter feed, I'm happy to RT to try and help snag a few extra viewers, and I'd hope that other SEA residents would too! Amplification always helps.

Some others have already mentioned it but interacting with chat is a big thing too, it's always nice to be acknowledged on a stream by the person playing, especially when they ask questions. On that topic: If people do ask a question, such as "How do you know the timing of the dark templar like that" or whatever; don't directly just answer the question - restate the person's name, and their question, then answer. Not only does this help with that "acknowledgement" thing I mentioned above, but it's also great for VoDs. If later on after your cast, you think "Man, that was a great game, I did some great plays, answered some good questions from the chat and commentated what I was doing, I should save that highlight for more people to see later (or to upload to a Youtube account)" - when you restate questions it helps quite a lot, because of course VoD viewers don't get the chat.

Idea for special segment: Do a miniseries on how the hell you get the headphones to stay on the back of your head cause that doesn't work for me
