Posting video title in ALL CAPS or Just Uppercase First Word

I Love YTtalk
I've noticed a lot of the big youtubers lately have been titling their videos in ALL CAPS, rather than just lower case. Has anyone tried this to see if it is effective?
 
It is effective... depending on our type of audience. If you are making Happy Wheels or Minecraft videos, a larger percentage of your audience will be younger viewers, who are most likely to be intrigued by a flashy title (and thumbnail) and click on it. But if you're making videos other than gaming, or reviews and professional playthrougs, use proper grammar, because the type of audience that will enjoy more 'mature' content will be annoyed by a title in all caps.
 
Tried it on my videos ages ago and saw a decline of views, on a personal level I think it looks tacky. I prefer capitals on first letters, looks a lot cleaner to me.
 
I find it quite spammy, big YouTubers can get away with it because there's always someone who will watch their videos (and in general I think it's expected from them) but I find it offputting from smaller channels.
 
I try to use a healthy mix. The majority of my videos feature no ALL CAPS whilst maybe series who I'm not dedicating a load of time to will receive a intro title in that style.
 
I've actually done all my videos in ALL CAPS, not for any reason at all, it's a personal opinion of mine, I think it's looks neater and tidy, obviously it also depends on the type of videos you create, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Everyone tries to make a bold and eye catching thumbnail etc. why not make the title bold?
 
My title is mostly in all caps but the name of the game itself is in lowercase, so they can see what the video will be about.
 
For me depends on type of videos which you are creating. Personally, I hate all caps, but when you want to examine smething from name, then it is fine. Tried that before on few videos and my views went high quickly (wasn't partner when did this) for few days and after that video views was staganating. So, for gaming vids with reactions is fine (one example is Serbian Games BL which use caps sometimes on reaction videos), but for other more proffessionally made videos it is uneccesarry (IMO, if I use caps on tutorials videos people would be, whoa this guys is crazy and it would go away from videos)
