Sodapoppin. DreamHack Summer 2018
This post is part of the series me gathering up good guides for twitch streamers how to setup the stream and do all the nitty gritty things. Ever since Fortnite launched this streamer into the ranks of the internet famous, he's become one of the most well-known gamers out there. He then started using Twitch, a video streaming platform, subsidiary of Amazon. While Froyd ironed out details of the video files for the overlay and alerts, I took on the task of creating of creating something that Sodapoppin could use in multiple non-gaming scenarios.
In fact, he was one of the first Twitch streamers to be ever successful in the platform. Popular sites allowing players to win weapon skins in games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive became extremely profitable and popular. As The Daily Dot pointed out a couple of years ago, in 2013 a mysterious user named "Amhai" started showering streamers who were mainly playing World of Warcraft's Mists of Pandaria expansion with massive piles of cash.
At one time, he made a statement of how sick and tired he is towards female twitch streamersâ€, with more emphasis on the quotation marks since he's pointing out how fake some streamers are on the platform. Apart from ads, YouTubers also generate extra from YouTube Red viewers who pay a monthly fee to view premium content on YouTube plus watch videos without ads.
Twitch streamer Lea " LegendaryLea " May is no stranger to PayPal donations for her streams of popular video games, but even she had to pause last January when someone named iNexus_Ninja donated $250 during a Hearthstone session. Sodapoppin's channel, whether Twitch or YouTube, is definitely not family-friendly unlike Ninja or Shroud; as in not at all.
Not only did we want to make something that Sodapoppin and his viewers liked, but we also wanted to make sure that it'd be something that wouldn't distract from the games he's playing. Some streamers are even well-known and beloved enough to make a living on subscription fees alone.
With over 20,000 videos available covering a wide variety of live and online games, Pokertube is a priceless resource for enthusiasts and professionals alike. There, he spent his time entertaining upward of 20,000 people by playing World of Warcraft and an assortment of variety games, and gambling online.
He also posts his sodapoppin content on his YouTube channel multiple times a week. In 2012, he created his YouTube channel, Sodapoppin and as of 2018, he has 876k+ subscribers with more than 288 million viewers. If people want to watch a tournament, they will, regardless of who else is streaming.
I feel like I wouldn't want to go talk to him I would fuck with the time and I wouldn't become a streamer. BetOnline has had its fair share of scandals, ranging from a live streamer catching a dealer cheating to claims about bots. Right now, Chance Morris has over 2 million followers and a total viewer count of over 220 million as of July 2018.
Sodapoppin is his alias name for the online community and is actually named Chance Morris. Morris streamed other games before switching to online gambling. For those dedicated Twitch streamers who put all of their time and effort into their craft, it sometimes becomes evident that they can make more money streaming than they did at their previous occupation.
While streamer Jaryd "Summit1g" Lazar is known for his charismatic personality and makes a steady income through subscribers and ad revenue ( totaling around $200K per year ), one of his most memorable financial successes came during a Counter-Strike livestream.
He rose to prominence playing and streaming World of Warcraft (Wow). In addition to his role as an online gamer, Sodapoppin is equally involved in the business aspect of gaming. While he's commonly known by his gaming alias Sodapoppinâ€, his real name is Chance Morris.
Chance launched his Twitch Sodapoppin†back in 2011. Other major streamers in the community, like Destiny, also don't see the influx in viewers — even if they are kids or normies†— as a bad thing. One of the biggest reasons how he got his fame is because of his personality—while most streamers may be the good boy type or either constantly aggressive or chill, Sodapoppin is a mix of different moods on screen.
