This is a really stupid meme. Stop wasting your time answering or thinking about the answer to this shit.
The ACTUAL two most important things are NICHE and X-FACTOR

Niche - What do you focus on? What is your content surrounding? Variety is not the answer. Streaming whatever you want is not the answer. Your content needs to be focused around a genre. Like classic games? Well you are retro. But what specific in the retro games do you like? Are you a Nintendude who loves the SNES/N64 era? Then there you go, your niche is that! And every niche has an audience. It doesn't mean you can't add in some spice and venture out, but your CORE body of work must be your niche.
Imagine being a writer who decided to write in all genres. That wouldn't work very well. That's what you are doing when you try to stream variety and just "be ureself tee hee!!!"

X-Factor - Why do people watch you over someone else in your niche? What is your lore? What spin do you provide to the content you cover? Are you a LOUD=FUNNY Maxxer? Are you dumber than a doornail and struggle with shape puzzles? Are you actually intelligent, and can provide insight? Do you like history and can give historical context to the content you cover? Are you really hyper fixated on style and can compare it to other similar things?

If you answer these two questions sincerely and come up with your character and who you are then you will do much better for yourself. Success in life isn't guaranteed, but these two questions need to be answered.

>voice
People with boring generic voices make it all the time
>talent
Almost all top entertainers in every industry are talentless hacks
>charisma
no, but you need personality, which is better defined by the X-Factor.
>Mental Stability
lol, bro anyone past gen-x isn't mentally sound. you're insane for even wanting to become an entertainer in the first place.

Almost all top males have none of these things in any industry. Industry connections and support from companies makes talents popular. Not the other way around.
Instead what they have are a niche and x-factor.

Competitive games are terrible for metrics and content.
They are for people who want to chill with chat or talk to someone or people extremely dedicated in the community as you say.
Which is why streaming LoL, DotA, DBD is super bad for streaming in general.
No one cares about LoL except LoL players. It's simply not appealing to anyone outside the community.
