2023-12-21 12:39

Haven't watched any of the listed ones besides those two and NadeKing, I think he's also done some fun stuff. But I voted for philip.

2023-12-21 13:34

Philip and WarOwl are the clear favorites. But WarOwl has been lazy this year, thus Philip wins, despite the fact he gets unlucky with his vacation and CS update timings.. :)

2023-12-21 15:36

Only correct choice. Dude has more influence on the CS scene than all the others combined

2023-12-21 16:13

2 replies

Nah, his videos are for pro players or really commited tryhards. There isnt any entertainment value and the content while good is niche. Klick and warowl are more interesting for a bigger part of the community, every cs player can appreciate them and they are much more fun.

2023-12-21 20:57

1 reply

How is it niche? Everyone who is serious about improving in this game is consuming content like his. If not Nart directly, then maybe some YT-shorts who steal his stuff. Tryharding in a competitive game is not wrong or niche, it's the core of CSGO. Edit: I absolutely love the other 2 you mentioned though and would be happy for any of the three to win it.

2023-12-21 12:52

nadeking 100%, best and interesting content. Also must claim how hard is to make his content, much more harder than rofl videos or news about cs.

2023-12-21 20:46

never watched any of them

2023-12-21 12:58

Will vote for swagger because I have not watched a single video from him in contrast to having watched one two videos from the other creators and having suffered brain damage from doing so.

2023-12-21 13:00

How the fuck is thorin not even nominated His content is god tier.

2023-12-21 13:07

4 replies

even though I can't stand the guy his content is goated, I love seing his interviews and his Thorin's thoughts series. But we all know that he and the HLTV staff don't get along, plus probably half the invitees are not very fond of him either, which is understandable but a bit of a shame in terms of integrity (for HLTV).

2023-12-21 13:21

Thorin uploads an insane amount of high-quality content. It's absurd that he's not nominated.

2023-12-21 15:39

2023-12-24 17:21

He should be nominated for best podcaster category

2023-12-21 13:20

My heart says 3kliks or WarOwl, but neither of the two have been doing a ton of content this year it seems to me. Nartouthere has been grinding HARD, useful and well-made video every day or two. Voting for him

2023-12-21 13:24

2 replies

3kliks has posted 68 videos this year, 1 video per workweek. I think that's more than enough, considering you just can't post content everyday without losing quality.

2023-12-21 22:38

1 reply

You're right, idk why I had that impression. Maybe his videos stopped being engaging for me personally, so I thought there was less of them this year.

2023-12-21 14:57

did superstitum even do a video this year, i cant remember. is sparkles really a creator when all he does is steal content?

2023-12-21 14:58

Thorin

2023-12-21 14:59

This site is losing credibility in my eyes. No Thorin in 'creator of the year' category. Meanwhile you have some random bozos whose peak content creation is shouting like an animal while doing case openings. Just in Q4 of 2023 alone, he did 2h+ 'Reflections' videos with zonic, coldzera, shox, karrigan, seangares, not to mention dozen other shows with other creators, talent, etc. This is more content in a quarter, than most of the other guys' entire portfolio. The best CS-related content creator of the past several years and he's certainly not stopping.

2023-12-21 16:50

No Houngoungagne, no party I guess speaking and showing the massive scam system of CS gambling and skin trading platforms doesn't pay much. This event being sponsored by a betting website puts him out of competition despite having done a very ethical move by showing what's happening behind the scenes and a very good work by explaining in 2 videos how the CS ecosystem thrives on illegal and criminal activities. You speak, you're out. Don't worry Yeff, we will remember you

2023-12-21 16:51

Love content from a lot of the creators but nartouthere stands out the most for me. Literally opened up his channel on the fly in steam overlay browser just to find that quick utility to counter what the opponent is doing. Also a quite a lot of times seeing a short clip of some cool utility on twitter and thinking "damn! Have to try that out when I play tonight". Utility for the mass. That's what he does and deserves the recognition!
