From which rating a player can start streaming?

Hello everybody!

In your opinion, from which rating a player can start streaming his or her games?

Do you watch chess streamings in order to learn/improve your game or just to have fun? I ask these questions because I have seen a couple of GMs with a poor audience and, on the other hand, some streamers with low rating but with a decent amount of followers.

There was a person on Twitch who was live streaming his chess progress from learning the game and improving and commenting. Sorry I cannot remember his name. He was young and picked up the game very quick, playing blitz games. I think he had a 1300+ rating after only a few months of playing. You MUST be entertaining and if you are going to do it, you must dedicate a couple of hours a day every day at the same time of day and be prepared to suck over and over again as you learn and improve. I personally don't know how anybody can talk and play at the same time but go for it and have fun. grin.png

Thanks for your advice, Kiwi_Chris!

The rating doesn't really matter, but you HAVE to be entertaining.

Rating is irrelevant. You need to think about what YOU would find entertaining to watch. Then try to do that. I honestly think its entertaining to watch players make illegal moves in OTB tournaments. I would watch someone who does that. (I don't know if you want to take my advice, though, because I've never streamed or posted a video)

I saw a 1600 rated player stream on chessTV. You just have to be entertaining.

I would say that anyone can stream as long as you have fun doing it. happy.png
