Shroud shares his reason for success on Twitch

Michael “shroud” Grzesiek is one of the most popular streamers in the world, and he explained how he became a top Twitch streamer during his October 16 stream.

Shroud is one of the big stars on Twitch, attracting thousands of viewers on his channel. He attracts everyone with his overwhelming gameplay in battle royale games like PUBG or Apex Legends, or leveling up in WoW Classic.

Becoming one of Twitch’s top-watched streams is no easy feat. Therefore, one viewer asked the 25-year-old streamer how he got here.

When a donation asked Shroud how he was successful on Twitch, the Canadian streamer answered honestly. He dives into his Twitch leg.

“I started the game as a streamer, then I got hooked on Counter-Strike, and I love CS. I joined and started my CS career, so people started to know me in this sport because I shot better and better. Then I joined a pro team and went to tournaments and got everything. In the end, I built up my fanbase and brought it to the stream. That’s basically it.”

For Shroud, he believes his career as a professional CS player sets the stage for success on stream. However, his massive growth in streaming after retiring is largely due to his impressive performances in the battle royale genre.

In particular, Shroud’s playing skills are so good that people often give him the nickname “human aimbot”, with his ability to pan so accurately that very few enemies escape once he has fired.

His humility and honesty about how he lives each day shows how hard he works throughout his career. And that is definitely an inspiration for any streamer who wants to achieve success in the streaming profession.
