Should pro Black Ops 4 players be expected to stream and create content? KiLLa weighs in MLGThe content debate in Call of Duty has been raging for a number of years now, but it would appear that we are still no closer to having everyone see eye-to-eye. Professional players are often under a lot of pressure from fans and fellow community member to create YouTube content and stream regularly on Twitch, but others argue that this is not in their job description. The pro players are paid to compete at the highest level and win tournaments \u2013 many feel like worrying about content creation alongside this is simply a distraction. However, content from players like Matthew \u2018Nadeshot\u2019 Haag and Seth \u2018Scump\u2019 Abner was often credited as one of the key reasons the competitive scene grew at all. The release of Black Ops 4 in October saw a number of players and teams make a concerted effort to increase their content output, but former world champion Adam \u2018KiLLa\u2019 Sloss appears to have noticed a significant dip in early 2019. \u201cOutside of OpTic, only person streaming is Clayster. That\u2019s just not acceptable,\u201d said the 25-year-old. outside of optic only person streaming is clay thats just not acceptable \u2014 Adam “”KiLLa”” Sloss (@KiLLa_Sloss) January 11, 2019 There are still a handful of players putting out regular streams alongside those mentioned by KiLLa, but the number does appear to be dropping off as CWL Pro League Play-In qualifier and main season draw ever closer.

Unfortunately, KiLLa seems to believe that the conversation is going nowhere: \u201cNo point beating on a dead doornail.\u201d Whichever side of the argument you fall on, there\u2019s no denying that the regular content from the likes of OpTic Gaming and eUnited\u2019s James \u2018Clayster\u2019 Eubanks has kept the scene interesting in the month since CWL Las Vegas ended. Given that OpTic won the event and eUnited finished second, the question of impact on performance is also rather dubious.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
