How many of you...
How many of you go on twitch and watch unknown streamers? As in not the first 10- 15 or so that appear on the league of legends page of twitch.
If you do watch the underdogs, why do you watch them?
Thanks! Peace out Voy scouts

This guy right here...
you know im not really sure why i do that! but its enjoyable watching people with just a couple of viewers. you can talk to them one on one, and its not all cluttered with people with 50+ viewers!
I prefer to watch smaller streamers generally, but I don't really watch LoL on twitch other than the LCS.
And it's also awesome to watch as those smaller streamers gradually grow... there're a couple of guys who I started watching when they only had ~5 viewers and now they're 100+. Really cool to see how their stream changes as they grow and being one of 'the first' to recognize someone awesome is a good feeling.
I've been watching BigNeitz, just a random new streamer I'm trying to support as he climbs the rankings, hoping to get him some more viewers. Everybody starts somewhere.
I love watching My_Rusty_spoon. He does amazing impressions of other streamers while playing and is hilarious.
Around the time that I started streaming, I got in the habit of scrolling down to the bottom and checking out the people who, like me, only had a few viewers (if any at all). Partly for the karma, partly to establish relationships with other streamers and hopefully get some more viewers that way, and also to get advice on improving my stream. It's also hard to find popular streamers who are Gold or below, and I've seen enough Diamond gameplay on streams that it's not fun to watch unless the streamer has a really memorable personality (Uber, Trick, etc.).
Check out Briye. She and her best friend are Diamond players and share the stream. They stream ranked games, play games with viewers, do random RP giveaways, hold tournaments once/season. They're really great people, super fun to interact with. They do free coaching on Saturdays (they spectate the game, streaming, commenting on it, making suggestions, noting what is being done well and what could be done better, then upload it to YouTube), answer questions all the time, chat about general stuff. Just, a super awesome stream in every way.
Briye sent me a question earlier asking me if she should send cookies to some of her donators, if they donate enough. I mean. How awesome is that?
