DudeMons Video Ideas (@DudeMons)

Channel: 3,294 subs | 3,576 views/28d (DORMANT — 69K below usual, zero uploads) Obligation: Future monetization through Pokémon content

🔴 YouTube literally says: "No content was uploaded, which led to fewer views." The channel STILL gets 3.5K passive views — the audience hasn't left yet. "I Bought PSA 9s On eBay To Re-Grade" is pulling 2.5K views from August. The content works when it exists.

Idea #1: "RIP AND SHIP — VINTAGE PACK EDITION"

Type: Short (series) Title: "Ripping $500 In VINTAGE Pokémon Packs... (Rip And Ship EP 24)" Thumbnail: Vintage pack being ripped open, gold/holo card peeking out. Old-school aesthetic. Cost: $500 per episode (product cost) Filming Time: 1-2 hours Why It Works: "Rip And Ships" Shorts historically drove the channel (225K views on best episode). Series format = return viewers. "VINTAGE" angle adds premium feel and higher perceived value. Keep the simple format: rip, show, react. Cadence: 1-2 per week

Idea #2: "I GRADED MY ENTIRE COLLECTION — HOW MUCH IS IT WORTH?"

Type: Long-form (15-20 min) Title: "I Graded My ENTIRE Pokémon Collection (It's Worth $___)" Thumbnail: Spread of PSA slabs with dollar signs. One card highlighted with surprisingly high grade. Clean, bright aesthetic. Cost: $200-500 (grading fees) Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: "I Bought PSA 9s On eBay To Re-Grade" is the #1 performer at 2.5K views — and it's 6 months old. Grading content has proven search demand on this channel specifically. The "how much is it worth" hook is universal. Upload Day: Saturday

Idea #3: "MYSTERY BOX UNBOXING — WE GOT SCAMMED?"

Type: Long-form (10-15 min) Title: "We Bought $1000 In Pokémon MYSTERY BOXES (Scam Or Not?)" Thumbnail: Mystery boxes stacked, one open with card peeking out. "SCAM?" in red text. Suspicious expression. Cost: $1,000 (product cost) Filming Time: 3-4 hours Why It Works: "I Bought Pokémon Mystery Boxes On eBay" got 44 views — but it was an older video with weak title. Mystery box content is one of the most searched Pokémon topics. "Scam or not?" framing creates curiosity gap. Upload Day: Wednesday

Idea #4: "$50 VS $500 POKÉMON PRODUCTS — WHICH IS BETTER VALUE?"

Type: Long-form (12-15 min) Title: "$50 vs $500 Pokémon Products — Which Is ACTUALLY Better Value?" Thumbnail: Split screen: cheap product stack on left, premium product on right. VS graphic. Price tags prominent. Cost: $550 Filming Time: 3-4 hours Why It Works: VS/comparison format is proven across the portfolio (Peak Slots' top videos). Budget comparison content drives discussion. Relatable to viewers at any budget level. Upload Day: Monday

Idea #5: "BUILDING THE ULTIMATE POKÉMON BINDER ON A BUDGET"

Type: Long-form series (8-12 min per episode) Title: "Building The ULTIMATE Pokémon Binder — $100 Budget (EP 1)" Thumbnail: Empty binder page → arrow → filled binder page with holos. Progress bar graphic. Cost: $100 per episode Filming Time: 2-3 hours per episode Why It Works: Series format with a visual goal (filling the binder). Budget constraint adds strategy. Each episode shows progress. The "before/after" of the binder is inherently satisfying. Low cost per episode = sustainable. Upload Day: Thursday (weekly series)

📋 DudeMons Priority

The MINIMUM viable action: Film ONE "Rip And Ships" Short this week. 1-2 hours of effort. That single Short could reignite the algorithm's attention on the channel. Don't overthink it — just upload something.

HyperCS Video Ideas (@HyperCounterStrike)

Channel: 3,331 subs | 318K views/28d (SURGING — Shorts driving massive growth) Obligation: ~1 vid/week + Shorts (budget ~$1K/wk, some vids cost $800)

🔥 This channel is on FIRE. Shorts are driving 282K of the 318K views. "DIRT CHEAP CS2 SKINS THAT LOOK INCREDIBLE" hit 125K. The formula: CS2 opinion/recommendation Shorts with strong hooks. KEEP GOING.

Idea #1: "5 CS2 SKINS UNDER $5 THAT LOOK $500"

Type: Short Title: "5 CS2 SKINS UNDER $5 THAT LOOK $500" Thumbnail/Hook: Side-by-side: cheap skin next to expensive skin, looks identical. "ONLY $5?!" text. Cost: $0 (showcase/opinion) Filming Time: 30 min Why It Works: "DIRT CHEAP CS2 SKINS THAT LOOK INCREDIBLE" hit 125K views. This is the same formula with a tighter value proposition. Budget skins content MASSIVELY outperforms everything else. Sponsor Tie-In: End card mention Rain/Clash for trading

Idea #2: "THE CS2 SKINS THAT WILL 10X IN 2026"

Type: Short Title: "These CS2 Skins Will 10X In 2026..." Thumbnail/Hook: Skins with price tags, green arrows pointing up, "$$$" overlay. Cost: $0 (market analysis) Filming Time: 30 min Why It Works: Investment angle adds urgency. "P250 Sand Dunes Are EXPLODING In Price" hit 17K. People want to know what to invest in. Combines entertainment with genuine value. Sponsor Tie-In: Natural trading site plug

Idea #3: "DO NOT SELL THESE CS2 SKINS"

Type: Short Title: "DO NOT SELL THESE CS2 SKINS (You'll Regret It)" Thumbnail/Hook: Red X over "SELL" button. Specific skins shown. Warning energy. Cost: $0 Filming Time: 30 min Why It Works: "DO NOT BUY THESE SKINS ON FACTORY NEW" hit 46K. The "DO NOT" negative hook is proven. Loss aversion > gain — telling people what NOT to do gets more clicks than what TO do.

Idea #4: "OPENING CASES UNTIL I PROFIT (How Much Did It Take?)"

Type: Long-form (8-12 min) Title: "I Opened Cases Until I PROFITED... (It Took $___)" Thumbnail: Calculator/spreadsheet showing running total. One column red (losses), one moment green (profit). Hyper celebrating. Cost: $500-1,000 Filming Time: 3-4 hours Why It Works: This has a GOAL — a finish line. "Opening Until X Happens" is a proven series format. Track every dollar in vs out. Transparency + narrative tension. Viewers come back to see the number. Sponsor Tie-In: Cases opened on sponsor site

Idea #5: "I OPENED THE 5 MOST EXPENSIVE CS2 CASES"

Type: Long-form (10-15 min) Title: "I Opened The 5 MOST EXPENSIVE CS2 Cases ($2000+)" Thumbnail: The 5 case images in a row, gold border, big total cost number. Hyper reacting. Cost: $2,000+ Filming Time: 3-4 hours Why It Works: Dollar amount in title = clicks. "Most expensive" = curiosity. Each case is a content moment with its own reveal. "5 Fever Cases Until I Pull a Knife" got 3.9K on a modest title — imagine with a $2K price tag. Upload Day: Saturday

Idea #6: "BEST LOADOUT FOR EVERY CS2 WEAPON (Budget Edition)"

Type: Short series (one per weapon class) Title: "BEST BUDGET LOADOUT — RIFLES UNDER $10" Thumbnail: Full loadout screenshot, clean aesthetic, price tag overlays. Cost: $0 (showcase) Filming Time: 45 min per Short Why It Works: "THIS NEW WHITE LOADOUT IS DOPE" hit 22K. Loadout content is evergreen and searchable. Series format means 6-8 Shorts from one concept (Rifles, Pistols, SMGs, Shotguns, Knives, Gloves).

Idea #7: "I TRADE-UP CONTRACTED MY WAY TO A KNIFE"

Type: Long-form (10-15 min) Title: "I Trade-Up Contracted My Way From $1 to a KNIFE" Thumbnail: $1 skin on left → arrow → knife on right. Trade-up contract UI in background. Journey/escalation visual. Cost: $200-500 (trade-up materials) Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: Trade-ups are educational + entertaining. Shows the math, the odds, the strategy. Each contract is a mini-suspense moment. The "journey from cheap to expensive" narrative is addictive.

Idea #8: "THESE CS2 UPDATES COULD CHANGE EVERYTHING"

Type: Short Title: "These CS2 Updates Could CHANGE Everything..." Thumbnail: CS2 logo with "UPDATE" stamp, question marks, dramatic lighting. Cost: $0 Filming Time: 30 min Why It Works: "ARE WE GETTING NEW CASES EVER AGAIN?" hit 28.7K. CS2 update speculation content has a massive built-in audience. Time it around any Valve hints or patch notes for maximum relevance. "CS2 AUTO SNIPERS ARE UNDERRATED" just hit 5K in 15 hours — the meta/opinion angle works.

HyperGambles Video Ideas (@Hyper_CS2)

Channel: 4,467 subs | 20.5K views/28d (DECLINING — needs format overhaul) Obligation: 2 vids/week Rain + 2 vids/week Juice + 2 vids/week Clash = 6 gambling vids/week

⚠️ Case A Day needs to die. The data proves it. Best Case A Day Short: 2,215 views. Best new format video: 752 views BUT with 1:44 avg duration vs 0:14 for Shorts. Long-form = more watch time = more algorithm push = more code signups.

Idea #1: "$1 TO $1,000 CHALLENGE — EPISODE 1" (SERIES)

Sponsor: Rain.gg Title: "$1 TO $1,000 ON RAIN.GG — CAN I DO IT?" Thumbnail: Split screen: $1 bill on left → giant knife skin on right. Hyper's face (shocked/determined) in center. Green arrow pointing right. Clean, 3 elements max. Cost: ~$50-100 (start with $1, may need reloads for content) Filming Time: 2-3 hours per episode Why It Works: This is the #1 proven format in gambling YouTube. Aspirational + serial = repeat viewers. Each episode is a chapter. People SUBSCRIBE to see if you make it. MrBeast's entire empire is built on escalation series. Upload Day: Monday (start of week, builds anticipation)

Idea #2: "I SPENT $1000 FINDING THE BEST CASE ON RAIN"

Sponsor: Rain.gg Title: "I Spent $1000 To Find The BEST Case on Rain.gg" Thumbnail: $1000 cash stack next to a grid of case thumbnails. One case circled in gold with a crown. Hyper pointing at it. Cost: $1,000 (gambling budget) Filming Time: 3-4 hours Why It Works: This is basically a review/tier-list disguised as gambling content. Viewers get VALUE (which case to open) and entertainment (watching $1K get spent). Similar format already got 752 views on "HUNTING TOP ITEM" — but with better title formula. Upload Day: Wednesday

Idea #3: "I LET AI PICK MY GAMBLING STRATEGY FOR A WEEK"

Sponsor: Clash.gg Title: "AI Picked My Gambling Strategy For A WEEK (I'm scared)" Thumbnail: Robot/AI brain graphic next to a Clash.gg screenshot. Red "DANGER" text. Hyper looking nervous. Cost: $500-800 weekly gambling budget Filming Time: 1 hour per day for 5 days, compile into one video Why It Works: "I Let AI Spend $400 On Case Battles" just got 191 views in 30 hours with 9.3% CTR — the AI angle is clicking. Expand it into a series. The AI angle is trendy and differentiating. Upload Day: Friday

Idea #4: "HOW MUCH I'VE REALLY LOST GAMBLING ON CS2"

Sponsor: Rain.gg (transparency builds trust → more code users) Title: "How Much Money I've REALLY Lost Gambling On CS2..." Thumbnail: Bank statement/spreadsheet aesthetic (blurred except big red number). Hyper's face looking down, somber. Big red negative number overlaid. Cost: $0 (research/compilation) Filming Time: 2-3 hours (gather data, film reaction) Why It Works: Transparency content is the highest-performing format in gambling YouTube. Every time a creator shows real numbers, it goes viral. Trainwreck's loss reveals get millions. This builds TRUST which converts to code users — sponsors should love this. Upload Day: Saturday (weekend traffic spike)

Idea #5: "RANKING EVERY CS2 GAMBLING GAME FROM WORST TO BEST"

Sponsor: Juice.gg Title: "I Ranked EVERY CS2 Gambling Game (Tier List)" Thumbnail: Tier list graphic (S/A/B/C/F) with game mode icons. Hyper pointing at S-tier with exaggerated approval face. Cost: $300-500 (need to play each mode) Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: Tier lists are EVERGREEN searchable content. People Google "best CS2 gambling game" daily. This captures that traffic forever. Position Juice.gg games favorably with genuine reasoning. Upload Day: Tuesday

Idea #6: "MY FRIEND PICKS EVERYTHING I GAMBLE ON"

Sponsor: Clash.gg Title: "My Friend Picks EVERYTHING I Gamble On (I trusted him)" Thumbnail: Hyper blindfolded, Ryan pointing at screen with evil grin. Clash.gg logo subtle in corner. Skins flying. Cost: $500 (gambling budget) Filming Time: 2-3 hours (collab with Ryan) Why It Works: Collaboration + unpredictability + funny reactions. Dual-creator content gets pushed harder by algorithm. Cross-promotes to Ryan's audience. Upload Day: Wednesday

Idea #7: "CASE BATTLE SPEEDRUN — $100 TO KNIFE"

Sponsor: Rain.gg Title: "$100 TO A KNIFE SPEEDRUN ON RAIN.GG (New Record?)" Thumbnail: Timer graphic overlaid on case battle screen. Knife skin featured prominently. "00:??:??" timer in red. Cost: $100-200 (may need retries) Filming Time: 2-4 hours Why It Works: Speedrun framing creates urgency + shareability. "New Record" implies community/competition. Timer on screen = constant tension. Case battles are Rain's biggest mode. Upload Day: Thursday

Idea #8: "I BET ON EVERY CS2 PRO MATCH FOR A WEEK"

Sponsor: Juice.gg (if they have esports betting) or Rain.gg Title: "I Bet On EVERY CS2 Pro Match For A Week..." Thumbnail: CS2 pro match scoreboard, Hyper's picks overlaid with checkmarks/X's. Big green $$ or big red loss number. Cost: $200-500 (match betting) Filming Time: 1 hour/day for 5 days, then 2 hour edit session Why It Works: CS2 esports audience is MASSIVE (1M+ daily players). This taps into a completely different viewer base than pure gambling content. Esports betting is exploding. Weekly series potential. Upload Day: Monday (after weekend matches)

Idea #9: "THE $5000 ALL-IN SESSION"

Sponsor: Clash.gg Title: "I Spent My ENTIRE Month's Budget In ONE Video ($5000)" Thumbnail: Stack of money literally on fire. "$5,000 ALL IN" in huge text. Hyper staring at screen, hands on head. Cost: $5,000 (entire monthly budget for one massive video) Filming Time: 4-6 hours Why It Works: Scale creates drama. Nobody clicks "$20 case opening" but EVERYONE clicks "$5,000 ALL IN." This should be the tentpole video of the month — one massive video to draw in new viewers. Upload Day: First Saturday of the month

Idea #10: "GAMBLING ROULETTE — SPIN THE WHEEL"

Sponsor: Juice.gg Title: "A Wheel Decided EVERYTHING I Gambled On..." Thumbnail: Big colorful wheel of fortune in center. Different gambling modes/amounts on each section. Hyper reaching for the wheel. Cost: $300-500 Filming Time: 3 hours Why It Works: Removes decision fatigue, creates chaos. Every spin is a content moment. The wheel is visual, shareable, and creates natural Shorts clips (each spin = potential short). Upload Day: Friday

HyperSpins Video Ideas (@HyperSpins)

Channel: 823 subs | 227 views/28d (DEAD — needs resuscitation) Obligation: Acebet IRL slots content, cross-promote with Peak Slots

🔴 This channel has 4 total videos and 5 views in 48 hours. It's flatlined. BUT: "How Many Bonuses Can I Get With $1000?" still got 180 views passively, and "Letting my girlfriend spend $1000 at the casino" got 40 views despite only 3.8% CTR. The audience EXISTS for IRL casino content — this channel just needs VOLUME.

Idea #1: "$500 CASINO SURVIVAL — 8 HOURS, NO RELOAD"

Sponsor: Acebet (IRL slots parallel to online) Title: "$500 Casino Survival Challenge — 8 Hours, No Reloading" Thumbnail: $500 cash in hand at casino entrance. Timer graphic "8:00:00". Dramatic lighting. One-take energy. Cost: $500 cash + travel/food ($100) Filming Time: 8+ hours (one full casino day) Why It Works: Challenge format with clear rules = easy to understand. The timer creates tension. Every big loss = will he survive? Every win = breathing room. Tons of Shorts clips from one shoot. If this is filmed well, it's a 15-20 min video that could be the channel's breakout. Upload Day: Saturday

Idea #2: "EVERY SLOT MACHINE IN THE CASINO — ONE SPIN EACH"

Sponsor: Acebet Title: "I Put $1 In EVERY Slot Machine In The Casino..." Thumbnail: Wide shot of casino floor with arrow path drawn across it. Counter graphic "0/200+". Hyper at first machine. Cost: $200-300 (one spin per machine) Filming Time: 4-6 hours Why It Works: Simple concept, massive content. 200+ machines = 200+ mini-moments. Track total in vs total out. Map the "hot zones." Each machine is a potential Short. This generates 10-15 Shorts from one filming session. Upload Day: Wednesday

Idea #3: "CASINO TIER LIST — RATING EVERY TABLE GAME"

Sponsor: General (builds channel identity) Title: "I Played EVERY Table Game In The Casino (Tier List)" Thumbnail: Tier list with game icons (blackjack, roulette, craps, baccarat, poker). S-tier highlighted. Hyper at table. Cost: $500-1,000 (need to play each game) Filming Time: 6-8 hours Why It Works: EVERGREEN content. "Best casino table game" is searched constantly. First-timer friendly = broadest possible audience. Each game is its own segment = structured content. The tier list at the end creates discussion/comments. Upload Day: Monday

Idea #4: "I LET STRANGERS PICK MY BETS"

Sponsor: Acebet Title: "I Let STRANGERS At The Casino Pick My Bets..." Thumbnail: Hyper talking to random person, pointing at slot machine. "They picked THIS?!" text overlay. Surprised expression. Cost: $500 (gambling budget) Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: Human interaction content gets pushed by the algorithm. Stranger reactions are GOLD for Shorts. Chaos = entertainment. Every person is a different mini-story. This is MrBeast-lite format applied to casino content. Upload Day: Friday

Idea #5: "HIGH ROLLER VS PENNY SLOTS — $1000 EXPERIMENT"

Sponsor: Acebet Title: "$500 On HIGH ROLLER vs $500 On PENNY SLOTS — Which Pays More?" Thumbnail: Split screen: fancy high-limit area vs colorful penny slot floor. $500 on each side. VS graphic. Cost: $1,000 ($500 each) Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: VS/comparison format is proven across the portfolio (Peak Slots' top videos are all VS). The question "does betting more actually pay more?" is genuinely interesting. Side-by-side P&L at the end is satisfying. Upload Day: Wednesday

Idea #6: "CASINO SPEEDRUN — $100 TO $1000"

Sponsor: Acebet Title: "$100 To $1000 Casino SPEEDRUN (How Fast Can I 10x?)" Thumbnail: Timer clock overlaid on casino floor. $100 → $1000 with stopwatch. Hyper running (motion blur). Cost: $100-200 (may need retries) Filming Time: Variable (could be 30 min or 6 hours — that's the content) Why It Works: Speedrun framing is trendy. Timer on screen = constant tension. The uncertainty of how long it takes IS the content. Whether it's 10 minutes or 10 hours, both are interesting outcomes. Upload Day: Saturday

Idea #7: "24 HOUR CASINO CHALLENGE"

Sponsor: Acebet Title: "I Spent 24 HOURS Straight In A Casino..." Thumbnail: Time-lapse of 24h clock. Casino floor at different times (bright daytime → moody 3am). Hyper looking progressively more tired across 3 frames. Cost: $1,000-2,000 (full day of gambling) Filming Time: 24+ hours (the video IS the challenge) Why It Works: 24-hour challenges are a YouTube staple. The journey format (morning energy → midnight slump → sunrise grind) creates natural narrative arc. Meals, characters met, wins, losses — it's a mini-documentary. Could be the channel's breakout at 15-25 min. Upload Day: Saturday (release on weekend for max traffic)

Idea #8: "GIRLFRIEND PICKS MY CASINO STRATEGY"

Sponsor: Acebet Title: "My Girlfriend Picked EVERYTHING At The Casino... ($1000)" Thumbnail: Girlfriend pointing at machine, Hyper looking nervous/amused. $1000 in her hand. Cost: $1,000 Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: "Letting my girlfriend spend $1000 at the casino" already exists and got 40 views in 2 weeks — bad performance BUT the concept is valid (couple content = broader audience). The title formula was weak. Rebrand with the "PICKS EVERYTHING" challenge format and proper thumbnail. Upload Day: Valentine's Day weekend or equivalent

MountainCS Video Ideas (@MountainsCS)

Channel: 862 subs | 418 views/28d | +180 subs (+900% — cross-promo working!)

🟡 Interesting situation. Almost no views but subs SURGING (+900%). Mountain Shorts viewers are finding this channel. The audience is building — now it needs content to retain them.

Idea #1: "I OPENED 100 OF EVERY CS2 CASE — FULL DATA"

Sponsor: Rain.gg (case openings) Title: "I Opened 100 Of EVERY CS2 Case (Full Profit/Loss Data)" Thumbnail: Spreadsheet-style grid showing every case with ✅/❌ and profit numbers. Data-driven aesthetic. Cost: $2,000-3,000 Filming Time: 6-8 hours (can batch film) Why It Works: "I Opened 5000 Cases (2025 Rewind)" got 279 views — best performer. The audience wants data-driven, comprehensive content. "100 of every case" is the definitive version. Evergreen search value.

Idea #2: "THE BEST CS2 CASES FOR PROFIT (February 2026)"

Sponsor: Rain.gg Title: "The BEST CS2 Cases To Open RIGHT NOW (Feb 2026)" Thumbnail: Top 5 cases highlighted with green $$$ indicators. "PROFIT" stamp. Cost: $500-1,000 Filming Time: 3-4 hours Why It Works: Monthly update format = recurring viewership. Search-friendly title with date. Viewers looking for "best CS2 case to open" will find this. Update monthly for evergreen SEO dominance.

Idea #3: "NEW CS2 CASE UNBOXING — FIRST REACTIONS"

Sponsor: Rain.gg Title: "[NEW CASE NAME] UNBOXING — WE GOT A ___!!" Thumbnail: New case skin featured prominently, surprised reaction face. Cost: $500-1,000 (depends on case price) Filming Time: 2-3 hours Why It Works: "NEW GENESIS TERMINAL UNBOXING...RED UNBOXED" got 26 views with old format — bad. But the concept (first reactions to new cases) is proven across CS2 YouTube. Need better titles/thumbnails and faster upload timing. Be FIRST on every new case.

Idea #4: "TRADE-UP ROULETTE — LET LUCK DECIDE"

Sponsor: Rain.gg Title: "I Let LUCK Decide Every Trade-Up Contract..." Thumbnail: Trade-up UI with a roulette wheel overlay deciding inputs. Chaos energy. Cost: $300-500 Filming Time: 2-3 hours Why It Works: "AK NOUVEAU ROUGE TRADEUP (success)" got 8 views — terrible title/thumbnail. But the trade-up CONCEPT has a built-in audience. The "luck decides" twist adds unpredictability. Every contract is a mini-suspense moment.

📋 MountainCS Strategy Note

With 180 new subs from Mountain Shorts cross-promo, the window to convert these subscribers into active viewers is NOW. Every week without a video risks losing them. Priority: Upload 1 video within 7 days while the sub surge is fresh.

Mountain Gambles Video Ideas (@MountainGambles)

Channel: 4,889 subs | 114 views/28d (DEAD — no uploads, losing subs)

⚠️ This channel needs a binary decision: REVIVE or SUNSET. 4.9K subs is too many to abandon, but 114 views/28d with no uploads means the algorithm has completely deprioritized it. Options below.

OPTION A: Revival (If Ryan commits to 2+ vids/week)

Idea #1: "I'M BACK — $5000 COMEBACK SESSION"

Sponsor: Rain.gg Title: "I Took 2 Months Off... Here's My $5000 COMEBACK" Thumbnail: Ryan returning, arms spread, Rain.gg screen glowing. "I'M BACK" text. Cinematic energy. Cost: $5,000 Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: Return videos from inactive channels consistently outperform. The narrative of "I'm back and I'm going big" is compelling. The gap itself becomes a story. One massive video to re-announce the channel.

Idea #2: "MOUNTAIN VS HYPER — GAMBLING CHAMPIONSHIP"

Sponsor: Clash.gg Title: "MOUNTAIN VS HYPER — CS2 Gambling Championship ($2000)" Thumbnail: Boxing match poster aesthetic. Ryan vs Hyper face-off. Belt graphic in center. Cost: $2,000 ($1K each) Filming Time: 3-4 hours Why It Works: Cross-promotion from HyperGambles audience. Competition = content. Championship framing makes it feel like an event. Cross-post highlights to both channels.

OPTION B: Sunset / Repurpose

Idea #3: Community Post Redirect

Post a final community tab message: "All new CS2 gambling content now on @Hyper_CS2 and @PEAKSlotsOfficial — subscribe there!" Redirect the 4.9K subscriber base to the active channels.

Idea #4: Shorts-Only Archive

Convert to a Shorts-only channel posting highlight clips from Hyper + Ryan's best gambling moments. Zero filming needed — just edit existing content. Low effort, passive views, keeps the channel alive.

🎯 RECOMMENDATION: Option A (Revival) IF Ryan can commit to 2 vids/week for 4 weeks straight. If not, Option B (redirect) is better than letting it rot.

Mountain Shorts Video Ideas (@MountainIsShort)

Channel: 2,675 subs | 1.21M views/28d (EXPLODING — 487% above usual) Obligation: Awareness engine → funnels to all other channels

🏆 This is the #1 performing channel in the ENTIRE portfolio. 1.2 MILLION views. Two Shorts over 360K each. The formula is CRYSTAL CLEAR: CS2 opinion/question Shorts with "WHEN/SHOULD/WHY/IMAGINE" hooks. Average view percentage consistently 95-133%. DO NOT CHANGE THE FORMAT — just increase volume and iterate.

Idea #1: "WHAT IF CS2 ADDED A RIOT SHIELD?"

Title: "WHAT IF CS2 ADDED A RIOT SHIELD??" Hook (first 1 sec): Riot shield gameplay clip from another game, then cut to CS2 footage Cost: $0 Filming Time: 20 min Why It Works: "WHEN NEW GUN TO COUNTER STRIKE??" hit 403K. "SHOULD THIS BANGER BE ADDED TO CS2!?" hit 362K. The "WHAT IF [new thing] in CS2" formula is the single most proven format in the portfolio. Riot shield is controversial enough to drive comments. Expected Range: 50K-400K views

Idea #2: "CS2 NEEDS A NIGHT MAP"

Title: "CS2 NEEDS A NIGHT MAP..." Hook: Dark/moody version of Dust2 or Mirage (fan concept), then text overlay Cost: $0 Filming Time: 20 min Why It Works: Same opinion/feature-request formula. Night maps are a frequently discussed community topic. The word "NEEDS" is stronger than "should" — it's a statement, not a question. Creates debate in comments. Expected Range: 20K-100K views

Idea #3: "TOP 5 CS2 KNIVES FOR EVERY BUDGET"

Title: "TOP 5 CS2 KNIVES FOR EVERY BUDGET!!" Hook: Show a $50 knife → $500 knife → $5000 knife rapid-fire Cost: $0 Filming Time: 30 min Why It Works: "TOP 3 CS2 KNIVES FOR $500!!" just hit 59K views. Scale the concept — cover $50, $100, $200, $500, $1000 price points. Listicle format in Shorts is engagement bait. Every viewer has a budget they relate to. Expected Range: 30K-100K views

Idea #4: "WHY CS2 SKINS ARE ACTUALLY A SCAM"

Title: "WHY CS2 SKINS ARE ACTUALLY A SCAM..." Hook: Controversial opening — show skin prices vs real-world equivalents Cost: $0 Filming Time: 20 min Why It Works: Controversy = engagement. "VALVE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT CHEATERS" hit 24K. The provocative "hot take" format drives comments (people defending skins AND agreeing). Both sides engage = algorithm boost. This would be a great pinned Short. Expected Range: 40K-200K views

Idea #5: "IMAGINE IF CS2 GOT A BATTLE ROYALE"

Title: "IMAGINE IF CS2 GOT A BATTLE ROYALE MODE!?" Hook: CSGO Danger Zone flashback clips → "but imagine it GOOD" Cost: $0 Filming Time: 20 min Why It Works: "IMAGINE IF CS2 GOT NEW UTILITY!?" hit 60K. "IMAGINE" is a proven hook word. Battle Royale is divisive in the CS community — some want it, some hate it. Both sides comment. Danger Zone nostalgia factor for OG players. Expected Range: 40K-150K views

Idea #6: "THESE CS2 SKINS SHOULD NOT EXIST"

Title: "THESE CS2 SKINS SHOULD NOT EXIST..." Hook: Show the ugliest/most controversial CS2 skins rapid-fire Cost: $0 Filming Time: 20 min Why It Works: Negative/controversial angle consistently outperforms positive. "DO NOT BUY THESE SKINS ON FACTORY NEW" hit 46K on HyperCS. Cross-channel the format to Mountain Shorts for the bigger audience. People LOVE debating "bad" skins. Expected Range: 30K-120K views

📋 Mountain Shorts Production Notes

Crown on the winning slot. Cost: $5,000 (big session = big content) Filming Time: 4-5 hours Why It Works: "Best of" discovery content has evergreen search value. $5K session creates scale that draws clicks.

Clean, colorful, recognizable at phone size. Cost: $1,000-2,000 (play each slot enough for fair rating) Filming Time: 5-6 hours Why It Works: Tier lists dominate YouTube. "RANKING" content is evergreen — people search for it months later. The LE characters already have a fanbase on this channel. Drives discussion in comments ("HOW IS LE COWBOY B TIER?!").

Idea #9: "PLAYING SLOTS WITH ZERO CONTROL (VIEWERS DECIDE)"

Sponsor: Acebet Title: "Viewers Picked EVERY Slot We Played... (We Lost Control)" Thumbnail: Chaotic energy — multiple slot screens, viewer comments overlaid. Hyper and Ryan looking stressed/laughing. Cost: $1,500 Filming Time: 3-4 hours (pre-gather votes from community tab) Why It Works: Audience participation = higher engagement + comments.
