Clickbait? or Just Nice Thumbnails?

Thumbnails look pretty good to me. All the text is prominent and readable, the thumbnails themselves are eventful yet not too crowded. I think they're pretty interesting and make clicking on a video more enticing, they're certainly not clickbait, I haven't noticed anything misleading about them..

Overall some pretty good stuff! Sorry I couldn't be of any actual help though :D I just think they're pretty solid as is.
 
To me the best thumbnails are relevant to the video title, some types of channels could get away with a little bit of clickbait but honestly, even with big channels I've followed for a while when I see a title/thumbnail that has 0 to do with the video it gets really f*****g annoying. So find the best balance that suits you.
 
If you could have a look at my thumbnails and tell me what you think, that would be fantastic!

yea the thumbnails are a bit all over the place. the Fifa and mega baseball ones look nice the other ones look kinda of irrelevant to the games you shot the video for. bird for battlefield? come on man, you can do better than that! include something from the game.
 
You can get away with baity-ish titles if your content is up to snuff, meaning your content was actually work the click bait title, not 100% clickbait but I'd say...if you're like 60-70% there then you can get away with it. IMO, SCARIEST GAME EVER! but then it turns out to be like.....no jumpscares then maybe no, but with 1-2 real good jumpscares you may as well throw that in the title. Even if you get 10 dislikes and 10 likes, you still may have picked up some subs, so ayyyy
