A couple of my comments are on the first page, and I'm more negative about Zeddy than most people in this thread I think and I'm familiar with that part of the conversation.
I didn't say "how could anyone be jealous of Zeddy (because he's only moderately successful)," I was pointing out that I like streamers with 20x as many subscribers as Zeddy, so "you're just jealous of Zeddy" doesn't really work as an explanation.
And I don't dismiss the toxicity of the Hearthpwn community in general but this thread has been fairly balanced and wasn't that toxic until you joined in.
I'd suggest maybe looking at your last two comments, the way you're talking to me (genius, circle jerk, I find it hilarious, blatant jealousy, that reputation you have, etc).
I agree that toxicity is often a problem on Hearthpwn. Between the two of us who would you say is being more toxic? What did I say that was toxic or bigoted?
I'm not interested in trading insults with you.
As I said before, I think Zeddy seems like an alright guy. I was glad he got some reveals this season, clearly he has fans, and I wish him well for whatever that's worth. I also find his complaining a bit annoying and ridiculous (for the reasons I described) and I disagree with his takes on a lot of things. I'm therefore not a fan of his video content.
I'd suggest not taking that so personally. Chances are there's things I think are good that you think are bad, and that's OK too.
I'm glad to see that hearthpwn is still as petty and toxic as ever. Keep it real circle-jerkers in your blatent jealously of a successful hearthstone content creator, it's perfectly in line with the reputation y'all have here.
I like Regis (150 thousand subscribers) and Kibler (390 thousand) and Trump (769 thousand) but not Zeddy (55 thousand).
Before he switched to making battlegrounds vids my favourite HS YouTuber was Kripparian (900 thousand).
Hopefully you weren't referring to me specifically but I don't think the jealousy explanation really makes sense, as Zeddy's one of the less successful content creators. And let's face it, he doesn't seem to enjoy his job that much. If I was going to be jealous of any of them it'd be Kibler, I mean have you seen that guy?
To be fair he doesn't just complain about Hearthstone and call for nerfs.
The other day he made a video about how he can no longer support Marvel Snap, with the subtitle THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. Apparently it's predatory, disgusting, disappointing and he feels betrayed and heartbroken, and the video ends with him tweeting @ Ben Brode that "[Zeddy] can no longer support this game."
I'm not a fan of his content, I feel like hopefully he's play acting because otherwise he's a grown man who is perpetually losing his shit over fantasy card games and who, after 8 years, is still surprised and outraged every time Blizzard shows that it's still the same company it's always been.
I still feel his heart's mainly in the right place, though. I would also like Hearthstone to be cheaper and Blizzard to be less shitty. But unlike Zeddy I can say that with without getting choked up or raising my voice.
Is this normal? Do people actually watch him? Or he just try to get more followers?
Negative videos are normal for Zeddy, as you'll have seen if you glanced at his channel.
If other YouTubers would say "try this deck" Zeddy would say "This deck must be nerfed!" He seems to be sad/angry (and he does seem to get genuinely and extremely upset) about almost every aspect of the game almost all the time. Not unlike many people on here, so I'm not surprised he has a following. He seems like an alright guy to me.
People do actually watch him, he has 55 thousand subscribers.
He is presumably always trying to get more followers because he's a streamer/Youtuber.
