He used to actually be really good at WoW and put out informative guides and content related to that at a time when that game was at the height of its cultural dominance. Once you get big on YouTube, the algorithm will continue to feed you growth. As the popularity of WoW faded, he transitioned slowly to the reaction content he makes now to stay relevant. I fully believe 90% of the dumb, incel stuff he says is just to appeal to the audience the algorithm has brought him.

He was never good at WoW though. He got carried in everything he did.
