i think the video was very good and im flattered you thought to make one on me, i dont always know what im doing and i mess up a lot but i hope that i continue to be worthy of effortful video essays like this in the future :3

Bro... Lud saying he went from 280k subs on twitch to 0 is hilarious because it was him moving to youtube lmao

"Close friends" bro knows the og memes

Releasing this on his birthday is kinda crazy...  LOL

"Dreams are cool, but rent is due on the first" is such a cold line.

Big Ludwig fan here. His comedic timing and transparency is what keeps me coming back even though I don’t agree with some of his opinions

Dude your storytelling is so good, I feel like I am watching a netflix documentary

I think it's cool that you are lifting another person up, instead of what we see so often on this platform, and that is the tearing down of others.  thank you for that, and keep it up!

i think the most impressive thing about this new wave of internet creators coming from livestreaming is the speed at which they succeed and take over, these guys have careers that would take traditional entertainment people full lifetimes to achieve.

8:28 "Close friends" LMAOOOO

Beerio kart was such a tiny streaming drama compared to the crazy stuff other streamers do. Enabling an alcoholic friend for a little too long barely registers.

Most underrated video essay youtuber

Tip to tip completely blows this out the water lol. He hasn’t fallen off yet…

Best part about Pogchamps is that Ludwig wasn't even in the roster originally, but he got in because someone dropped out and he was the first in line to fill in.

this is a great video essay, ludwig has so much lore on the internet. the information is condensed really well and i liked the timeline and the topics you chose to highlight

it also made me realize i have attented every single one of ludwigs events in LA

0:45 - that little montage, i have interacted with or met everyone there

surreal

Only started watching Ludwig a good while after the subathon, possibly when he moved over to YouTube. I feel I keep watching because he's quite wholesome and yet funny. Someone who's actually trying to do better, and we need more of that. (even though mistakes were made at beerio kart, espeically looking in hind sight, he's a person I trust to eventually learn from it and make sure it doesn't happen again) When he started offbrand as a coop, that's when he got really cemented in my watch list. I might not have been there when he came up, but I feel I'll be there when he "falls off".

the quality of your videos never fail to impress me

this channel is top 10 for sure

That switch from twitch to YouTube ad was genius 😂

I'm a fan of Lud, went from watching his streams of him playing rage games like Pogostuck and Jump King to now mostly watching The Yard and his YouTube vids of things like Tip 2 Tip. Overall he seems like one of the more solid and less annoying people in the streaming world and I've gotten some real good laughs out of his content. I might not watch the streams anymore but I'll be here for his YouTube vids. Oh and I bought his merch one time and they messed up my order and sent a few extra things, and I was surprised by the quality so since I don't sub to the stream anymore I'll usually grab his merch to show support. Dude seems like a good guy and his friends seem hilarious.
