Looking at animated waifus/husbandos is fun, but it can be twice as fun to become the waifu/husbando. Better yet, you could get together a team of three to explore a beautiful fantasy world. That’s the concept behind Genshin Impact – and it has catapulted MiHoYo’s free-to-play Action RPG to worldwide popularity. Maybe you’re looking for guidance as you enter the world of Teyvat, or maybe you just want to watch other people play the game. Either way, here’s our list of the best Genshin Impact content creators to check out.
10. Rawfler
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Rawfler Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/rawfler There are many kinds of Genshin Impact YouTubers. Some focus on lore, others on sharing the strongest builds, and others just want to share their experiences with the game. And then, there are the memes. Rawfler is probably the most successful humorous Genshin Impact content creator on YouTube. His videos, which you’ll recognize for names such as “GENSHIN IMPACT SAYU.EXE” and “KLEE PULL RITUAL.EXE”, are completely absurd and unbearably hilarious. Rawfler’s YT videos are all in English, but he actually streams in Spanish too. If you want to flex those Spanish classes you took in high school, this guy can make it fun.
9. AsianGuyStream
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AsianGuyStream Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/asianguystream I like content creators that keep things balanced between the useful and the entertaining. AsianGuyStream is one of those. His videos and streams are fun to watch, and unlike many GI creators, he actually shows his face on screen. This makes him a lot more charismatic. He’s the kind of guy you want talking in the background as you make yourself some breakfast or clean up your room. AsianGuyStream tirelessly spits knowledge in most of his videos, but he also has content specifically designed to help you get better at the game, such as boss guides and character showcases.
8. OkCode
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/OkCodeTV Twitch: https://twitch.tv/okcode OkCode shines for his calm and collected demeanor. Even when suffering under the pressure of the hellish drop rates on a banner, he remains (mostly) chill. The editing on his videos is also fantastic. Just check out this meme-worthy intro to his Thoma-summoning vid! There’s one caveat though: His British accent is irresistible and even funny for some, while others can’t help but cringe. You won’t know where you stand until you listen for yourself!
7. Sekapoko
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/SekapokoGenshinImpact Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/sekapoko If you’re looking for someone to keep you up to date with the state of the game, Sekapoko is one to check out. He’ll talk about seasonal events, new banners, scandals in the GI community, and guide you in navigating the monthly Starglitter Shop reset. He has weapon showcases and compares builds pretty often, so consuming his content is bound to make you just a bit better at the game.
6. Tectone
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Tectone Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/tectone Tectone is one of those big creators you don’t want to skip if you want to know what all your Genshin Impact friends are talking about. This creator is all about the experience, rather than teaching you anything. He provides excellent commentary with lots of energy, but don’t expect any guides or anything of the sort. If anything, Tectone can teach you how to play the YT/Twitch game. His titles are provocative, the thumbnails are just as insane as the algorithm wants them, and the results are evident as he steadily approaches the 1M subscriber mark. He also plays Honkai Impact 3rd and Lost Ark too. So if you like any of those games, Tectone is a must-watch.
5. IWinToLose Gaming
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/IWinToLose I’ll be honest with you. I suck at building my characters. The basics are easy enough, but I get confused quickly when it comes to maxing my dps through multipliers and innovative skill combos. One of the best YouTubers to watch if you’re in the same boat is IWinToLose Gaming, a down-to-earth dude with a knack for looking at what’s really useful in a character and explaining it in simple terms. He has videos on why Bennet is actually a secret six-star character, what Talents should be crowned for maximum gains, and the best F2P builds in Genshin. The guy also has an app specially made to help you max out your character’s potential. So if you’re looking to supercharge your Genshin Impact-ing, he’s your man.
4. Mtashed
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/MTashed Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/mtashed Another top-notch creator for those of you who need some help getting your Genshin Impact career going is Mtashed – a guy who pours loads of money into the game so you don’t have to. Well, that’s not all he does. While he does have “whale” content where he burns cash on a banner to get a character to Constellation level 6 ASAP, he also runs a F2P account to show you can have fun and get powerful without spending a dime. Mtashed is relatable, approachable, and his entry-level videos (like 25 Tips for New & Returning Players) are top of the line.
3. Teyvat Historia
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TeyvatHistoria I’m a sucker for lore videos. Be it Dark Souls, Destiny 2, or Genshin Impact, half of my fun comes from exploring the setting and absorbing the stories that make up these fantasy worlds – and the easiest way to do it is through creators that take the time to unpack it in fun videos. After all, nobody has the time to read every book and analyze contextual clues while they’re busy farming Primogems. Teyvat Historia is the place to go for your Genshin lore fix. Their videos will help you understand what’s happening, get a more profound knowledge of each region, and notice details you might have missed.
2. Bwaap
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/bwaap Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/bwaaap If you couldn’t care less about learning anything, but still want to enjoy some good-old backseat gaming, Bwaap is here to entertain. This creator shines for his funny personality & finely attuned to Gen Z humor. He’s just dropping top-notch humor and good vibes throughout every one of his videos and streams. Whether it’s reacting to cinematics, pulling crazy stunts (like tackling endgame content with Amber equipped with the worst bow), or just running the Spiral Abyss, Bwaap makes it thoroughly enjoyable.
1. Enviosity
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Enviosity Twitch: https://twitch.tv/enviosity Known by his fans as the F2P Archon, Enviosity is the content creator nobody playing Genshin Impact should ignore. Enviosity shines for balancing a fun-to-watch personality and quality educational content. His guides will help you get the most out of every update, maximize your daily progress, and even teach you ways to mix things up if you’re growing a little bored of the game (but still love it). He also uploads a fair bit of gameplay where you’ll watch him carry the banner of F2P high, completely acing the Spiral Abyss and seasonal events. Enviosity also runs a clips channel dedicated to funny and short clips for moments where you just want some bite-sized entertainment.
