As mentioned, Pokelawls isn’t ridiculously famous like some other popular YouTubers such as KSI, etc., but he certainly does okay for himself, and his channel is growing every single day.
But how did Pokelawls become famous in the first place?
Well, he started in 2017 or so, streaming the popular game Overwatch on the gaming streaming site Twitch.
Overwatch is a game based upon a multiplayer first-person shooter, set in a post-apocalyptic version of Earth following what is known as the ‘Omnic Crisis.’ Omnics are artificially intelligent robots designed by humans for manual labor. They are created in facilities called ‘Omniums.’
Omniums started to create robots that were hostile and turned against their creators. Nations across the world responded with their military programs, and it wasn’t long before the world was at war with the Omnics.
As a last resort, the United Nations assembled a unit of soldiers known as Overwatch. As the years went by, Overwatch defeated the Omnics until the Omnic Crisis was officially over. Overwatch would become a peace-keeping organization for the UN.
Produced by Blizzard, Overwatch is one of the most popular online multiplayer games, and it is this reason, at least in part, why Pokelawls has become such a well-known and popular YouTuber and Twitch streamer.
