Hey! I checked out your channel and I honestly really like your thumbnails. They look super clean and professional. With that being said, I noticed that the black text is a bit hard to read, so possibly putting a white outline/glow around the text would make it stand out more I think. Same with the pictures in the thumbnail. I think putting either a glow, outline, or even a drop shadow would make it pop more and not have it hide in the background. I watched your latest video and I actually really liked it so your video quality I think is spot on. Especially your audio! Overall I think your channel is great, it’s really appealing and you have some great content. Best of luck!

Hi! I just had a look at your channel and I like that your branding is consistent throughout your channel. I like the slightly transparent black bar across the top of your recent thumbnails. It looks more appealing with it than without. If it was me I'd be tempted to add the half black half red design of your banner into the thumbnails too. Maybe where you've put the video number, you could have a black triangle in the corner and make the number red. It would make it stand out more in my opinion. Also, maybe you could have different variations for different games? Also, for your banner I think it might look better without the white glow on your logo. I think it would look cleaner and more modern? That's just my opinion anyway. But good luck with your channel!

I love the way your channel is going. Just a couple of tips (I didn't read others comments as to not have a bias). On your thumbnails I would try using white text on the red backgrounds instead of black. I know that's your color scheme so maybe add an outline of black around the white text. I would recommend the same with your logo as well, red and black is a great combo but without a highlight color like white its rough to see. I like your logo so much that I am going to redsign it in Photoshop myself for fun. If it turns out nice I'll send it to you and you are more than welcome to use it.

Oh wow thank you! No one has ever tried to redraw my art before so that would be amazing to see!! I havent tried seeing how white text would look so I'll give that a try. Thank you again
I was actually talking to mellish but If you'd like me to try yours as well I don't mind
I actually think your logo is beautiful
