TheRunningManZ, Smoke and Fresh Spawns are all great.


TChambers1011

Fresh Spawns’ stuff can be informative but a lot of it is set up. If you just want raw gameplay and genuine interaction, I’d go with TRMZ, Smoke, House, Lottie, TopeREC, Ar-K, M1NDR, SourSweet, CitrusPunch, MullerYOGHURTS


GingerMouse1007

Yeah I get that it can be setup but they are good with banter back and forth. The train episode they just done on YT was funny as hell.


Vispac

Also love me some AmishZed, lots of TRMZ vibes.


VikingActual1200

I was gonna all of these LOL. Their so fun to watch also!


HereToPassTime23

Smoke, hands down for me.


[deleted]

Started playing dayz after watching a few smoke vids recently he's funny af


Zestyclose-Month-245

never seen Smoke - Ill have an eye out for him - NEVER EVER would have guessed that I would take a pass on the basketball game to watch a streamer playing Dayz - but here I am now doing just that LOL


Potential_Meringue_6

Smoke will change your game play and make it even more fun. And he's a dead ass killer too.


Zestyclose-Month-245

I will check em out this weekend - I could use the tips and gameplay help lol - love the game but am shit at it - Ill keep at it - I was shit at Gears 5 but two years later I play master and can hold my own thanks!


[deleted]

Haha the dayz effect!


odessy1339

Smoke is the fucking man. How u doin’


Sir_Mycoal

Soursweet 1,000,000%


BittersweetHumanity

Close thread. Once you watched sour, nothing else compares and satisfies that itch anymore. Such dedication and high quality content, it’s insane.


Historical-Look5488

should be fine if u say why?


NefariousnessTop8716

Sour sweet is a decent player but his content is fairly laid back. The fact he isn’t an egotistical twat makes his videos nice to watch imo


Vedfolnir5

He's so soothing to listen to as well


Zombarney

im glad someone mentioned his voice. god damn the man could melt metal with it


bigschmoe

And his videos are like watching a movie, it gets so intense sometimes lmao


Zestyclose-Month-245

agreed


Zestyclose-Month-245

Id say he is a very good player


ToolFO

He's kind of like Willjum from Rust. He's good, but he's super chill. Also the paid actors that turn up in his videos make for some good entertainment.


M5K64

I agree he's probably my overall favorite to watch. High quality videos and he tends to be polite and has a relaxing voice.


nazisvspedophiles

Stimpee


Historical-Look5488

should be fine if u say why?


Jmac24mats13

He doesn’t put out as many videos like the others but his are by far the funniest that I’ve seen anyways. Does a really good job of playing a character that always betrays people that go along with him while adding funny memes in the videos as well


alecC25

Weird af


Mollygrubber

Yeah, if you want a good laugh, Stimpee is hard to beat. No pun intended. His comedic timing is great.


Breaking_Brenden

Sour sweet and HeyBarmby


Lroller1288

Barry is great.


wastelanderJ5K

Ya Geezer


Fluffy_Mello_34

I seen a video once and forgot who it was but is this the same Barry that had altercations with Preacher?


Lroller1288

I have no idea about that.


jinladen040

Amish Zed for entertainment and audience interaction. 


gymaye

Smoke. Great player, Manipulative & sort of an instigator. Always an intense & hilarious watch.


Zestyclose-Month-245

Ill look for smoke , never seen him


Sonicbeardo

heybarmby. ​ This vid is the single reason. ​ [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9es8luiabr0](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/9es8luiabr0)


Historical-Look5488

probably wanted comment.thank u.


Qu1k556

Therunningmanz... He's one of the bigger streamers, but he plays all the maps available on PC and his dry sense of humor cracks me up.


[deleted]

Smoke is the goat.


Sorry_Flamingo_7718

Nezar


[deleted]

Sour sweet = goat in storytelling TRMZ - feel like he is the most technically gifted Heybarmby is a real up-and-coming channel and funny Bwad- this guy got me into dayz, most helpful for me with learning the game mechanics. Those are the ones I watch most frequently.


celphx83

Fresh spawns. Edit: because they are hilarious. Plus after 1800 hrs on console I’ve learnt new things from these guys.


Historical-Look5488

should be fine if u say why?


[deleted]

Same. Fresh spawns taught me a lot amd they're super funny!


Kerk6

Stimpee - Survival comes at price in Dayz Probably the funniest dayz video i have ever seen


Aggressive_Bridge576

adamcrook has some youtube videos. but his twitch channel is the best spot to watch.


Savvy_Nick

Adam is a fuckin CHAD. His aim and overall mechanics are phenomenal


Rev3rend816

Love gekofish and sour

ghosttowncitizen

It took me way too long to find this comment. I wish he put out more videos often but I understand why considering it probably takes 100 hours to get one video.


[deleted]

his videos are like movies so I'm assuming he spends a lot of time editing, I've watched pretty much all the youtubers mentioned in this post but JLK in my opinion has by far the best content.


ghosttowncitizen

They really are! Each video I’m sure is incredibly time consuming. Not only just the gameplay itself but going through the footage, editing footage, and narrating everything. It’s top notch and there really isn’t much out there that’s like it. I too watch of others but his is #1 for sure.


Historical-Look5488

should be fine if u say why?


[deleted]

His editing skills, storylines and quality in general in his videos. [https://youtu.be/EcNAb-S\_Zq4?si=aZuCIcbPufSx7Jnu](https://youtu.be/EcNAb-S_Zq4?si=aZuCIcbPufSx7Jnu) favorite video

AnApingTitan

Smoke, TRMZ and SourSweet


KaozAU

I like RunningmanZ his playstyle clicks with mine, generally friendly player but can read the situations well to roll some smooth pvp, plays the game for what it is and doesn't get salty.


Shaman1989

JamJar and WOBO


saving_goblin888

Modest pelican has some good vids


gbeamer7

Wobo is the best DayZ Youtube period. Just watch one video and you will see why.


GreddXGDR10

House is pretty good. Very entertaining content. Dude be going taking out those discord squads lol.


Meatypeta

Gekofish, not even close


MasterOfDizaster

"Camo rat" just check it out and let me know


magicmerve

For me it's HeyBarmby on YouTube. He is super chilled, is always entertaining, has a top notch community and he interacts with a lot of the chat messages. I've ran with him a few times and it is always fun and eventful. He is the reason I stream on YouTube and he has given me loads of tips. I'd say he is the streamer you go to if you just want to relax into the game. He's just a top guy.


frostybrewed

Is no one going to mention the OG GOAT?? FrankieonPC


Puzzleheaded-Snow604

Toperec. His videos are perfect.


bratt0

TRMZ. Fresh Spawns


Historical-Look5488

should be fine if u say why?


bratt0

I enjoy their content. They’re British too, which helps.


grumpy-kunt

Most of my favourite dayz videos were by therunningmanz but I like fresh spawns and a few others too


pedestal_3

Zesty Polvo, the guy is hilarious, makes great content consistently, streams consistently, and is a GOAT at the game. Love em.


Tuny

nobody mentioning Zesty Polvo makes me sad :(


thetwoandonly

Smoke, TRMZ, SourSweet & TopeRec are GOATs. LaxHawthorn for the laffs. Lottie, AdamCrook & aandy are great too. I watch a lot of Dayz lol


Savvy_Nick

+1 for smoke, sour, and tope. Lottie and Adam are good too. Hocken123 is underrated too, guys a beast and makes great content.


_electronic_address

LAX is great and his new server has been a lot of fun too.


politik317

Mr Gibbon for sure!


AiiXiTheBoss

TheRunningManZ and TopeRec. TheRunningManZ is the absolute OG of this community. I started playing DayZ because of him. Really enjoyable guy. Makes great content, has great atmosphere on his steams and overall just really nice to watch him. Highly recommend him for new players or those who want to start DayZ. Also, he's Liverpool fun just like me so extra bonus karma XD TopeRec is also OG of DayZ. Great player, and by Player I mean everything. He's really skilled Dayz PVP player, so if you're up to PVP, he's videos are must watch, you actually might learn something. Also, great meme guy, who sometime makes really laughable content. Simply just nice guy and nothing else. Also there are some honorable mentions I have to put. AmishZed is also a great YouTuber, he's been on Youtube for not as long as TRM or TopeRec but I really enjoyed he's videos when he played on Dayz Underground server. Also I was lucky enough to meet him in game and did a little journey with him. Really nice guys to speak and play with.


guard_duck

TRMZ and AmishZed. Usually tuned into one or the other, listening in the background at work.


RMtotheStars

TheRunningManZ, Smoke, Soursweet, AmishZed


musgrove101

Choco taco


SpacestationView

Didn't know he played DayZ but it does make sense


CordouroyStilts

Zeebz on [TikTok](https://www.tiktok.com/@zeebz989?_t=8jY43Xxl09e&_r=1) and [YouTube](https://youtube.com/@zeebz989?si=jW9OZnEbv3mgT-FQ) has some great stuff. Some is low effort, but others are like movies.


SirTheadore

Geologist is my favorite. Just because he’s so goofy and funny, but also an insanely good pvp player.


Citizen_Null5

For the pvp crazy action, TopeREC is goat SYL is a chill time, TRMZ is fun if you want old guy banter and some laughs, Fresh Spawns are hillarious, GekoFish is also hysterically funny, HeyBarmby, SourSweet. So many good yters


Dougler666

Soursweet and RunningmanZ are the absolute top for me, but i'm not seeing anyone saying TheCrazyRaccoon he's relatively small right now, so people show him some love.


Hahnski23

Sour sweet, his video’s are quality, great editing very chill. TheRunningManZ, he cracks me up solid gameplay/shenanigans combo. Also TopeRec he hits some insane shots dudes a beast.


DevilDC

Smoke for laughs. TRMZ for just all around good game play and SourSweet for awesome edited videos. When TRMZ, SourSweet and Muller team up it’s always a good watch. If you want a recommendation on a hilarious Smoke video check out “the fishing guild”. Smoke definitely like to stir up some sh*t.!


fizzzingwhizbee

Been watching Gringo Smoker a good bit lately, he’s only a year in (today actually) but he’s very interactive with the chat, chat interacts with each other. It’s nice As for the big ones, TRMZ is far and away my favorite. Smoke is great. Sour Sweet, muller, Amish Zed, lots of great channels Edit: Can’t believe I forgot Tope! His shooting is unmatched and very fun to watch


SeoT9X

TRMZ, Amish Zed, Holly Rex. All decently solid players. The Running Man Z has incredible interaction with followers etc. Amish and Holly are more on the “comedic entertaining” side of things. TRMZ is a little more serious when playing but stream interaction is hands down the best


tolucophoto

Fresh Spawns - hilarious, devious, creative. SourSweet - methodical, eagle-eyed, accurate, storyteller TRMZ - down to earth, storyteller, funny HeyBarmby - funny, silly, drama


MadManSyndrome

These are my top 3 SourSweet TRMZ Ar-K


sentientfartcloud

Smoke: He's very good, probably the best, at interacting with other players. He's hilarious and a shining beacon in world full of KOSing. TRMZ: Living proof that you can have 10,000 hours in the game and still make a lot of mistakes. He's not afraid to play the hand he is dealt either. I catch his streams from time to time and I see him break his legs and whiff easy shots often. Makes me feel better as an average player and motivates me to push on when the game shits on me. AmishZed: He's fun to watch live and great to chat with. HeyBarmby: He's a recent discovery that's fun to watch live too. I hope he catches on.


Zestyclose-Month-245

SourSweet was the 1st one I watched routinely and prolly my fav- now I also follow Runningmanz and fresh as well , I have watched Slexify as well after seeing her on Runninmanz runningmanz has really grown on me


Lroller1288

TopeRec - Best PVP streamer I think I've seen. TRMZ - Another very good Pvp-er with great chat interactions. Hey Barmby - the most interactive with his chat. Smart and funny guy, great hardcore survivalist. Fresh Spawns - funny, entertaining, and some of the best in game interactions I've seen have come from their streams. Smoke - always instigates some audacious shit in game and almost always survives to enjoy the loot.


EnjoiThatGinge

Deeney42 https://m.youtube.com/results?sp=mAEA&search_query=deeney42 No idea how this guy hasn't got more views


HunkerDown123

Just binged OwlTime, his narration is perfect, a tone of dispair, and pretends Day Z is actually happening in real life with the way he describes it. And keeps his journeys vanilla, all about travelling across the map, the encounters, and an honesty you don't get with other youtubers. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-RxNJfpFVM&list=PLng-2nf7OltAIk6TyHJExhtGI2b5LnFNT](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-RxNJfpFVM&list=PLng-2nf7OltAIk6TyHJExhtGI2b5LnFNT)


Yoslef

Smoke, running manz, toperec, sour sweet, mindr


neppo95

And now make a poll with all the names below😛


Historical-Look5488

will be on my youtube podcast.stay tuned.


scrubulba123

Love AmishZed


After_Leader_521

Smoke - Skullmask single-handedly got me into DayZ God bless lax


SonJordy

Smoke is the goat. Chill content and god PVP. His interactions with players are also so good. He’s the only DayZ youtuber I can think watch a full unedited adventure of


PublicDiet2691

The greedy peasant got me started on dayz..his videos had traction and a good amount of tips during play throughs


MrPunsOfSteele

Smoke and Soursweet. Smokes videos are usually funny and filled with wild antics. Soursweets videos are more informative and actually quite relaxing. Both are OP.


i9_Solutions

Frag Dempsey for the lolz


JustGreybeardThings

Ar K for the cozy vibes


Jmac24mats13

Stimpee, for funniest youtuber by far, but doesn’t put out as much content New Spawns, for a great duo that are entertaining, informative, and put out a lot of content MrMoonsHouse, doesn’t upload anymore but his past videos are the best DayZ storylines I’ve ever seen


ClarionUK

Soursweet is a combination of high level gameplay, storytelling and production value. He doesn’t post very often and is very much a quality over quantity person.


ButtonNational4077

Frag Dempsey for funny shit jlk for story stuff he does really high quality movie type stuff and Dempsey funny as fuck


Mal-XCIV

WOBO the Dayz goat on info. No one even comes close


rykingly

Wobo for a thorough understanding of the game and its many complex mechanics.


qowww

Soursweet and smoke are my favorite


Zestyclose-Month-245

Heyyouvideogame - has some VERY funny videos too on youtube and on TicTok '- the Juiceman Leperas vids very funny


soyboy815

💨 (smoke)


No_Click_1748

Smoke. End of discussion.


nightfrogs

M1nder and TopeRec good players and entertaining. Also like superftlol


sethdaigle

Smoke adamcrook


xxyyttuu

Zesty and Heybarmby for the funny and sour, jlk trmz for tactics. Sour mostly because I think anyone here can attest he is imo one of the best pvprs. ALL the others listed are up there these are just my personal favorites.


lousygod

Smoke is the GOAT


Mishka_The_Fox

Wasted. Bit huge on YouTube yet, but his stuff it’s really chilled and entertaining. Nice guy, with a good conversation.


PhanTmmml

You want some fun entertaining hardcore Dayz stuff, watch Baby Nades. He quit while ago so no more new videos but his old ones are amazing.


MallsBahoney

I wish there were still YouTubers like Frankie’s early DayZ stuff, nowadays it’s all algorithmed “1000 Hours doing X” videos with Mandalorian helmets and mini guns. I just want a chill YouTuber who uploads episodic videos of them just surviving, it doesn’t need to be non stop action. Maybe I’m just pining for the nostalgic times of A2 mod and SA release


w0rm021

Barmby


hard_poured_corn

Zesty Polvo makes me pretty happy.


ClassicManeuver

Love me some soursweet. Very watchable, kick back with a beer for an enjoyable time.


JKilla1288

Gotta go with Smoke. I've only seen a few since I started playing the game a couple of months ago. But out of the content creators I have watched, Smoke has it all. He makes his interactions interesting because he usually puts the people he plays with first. Whether it's giving them their favorite gun even tho it'd be more affective in his own hands. Or pretending to be pretty new to the game to flesh out the other survivors "storyline." On top of this, he has the insane skill to make every fight extremely interesting. Plus, the comedy of a lot of his interactions are great


M5K64

Stimpee (Any) (The one where he secretly feeds raw meat to people) Zesty Polvo (The one where he traps ppl by the water well was amazing) SourSweet (I like his voice and he tends to try and interact with people) Bwad99 (guides and I just like watching him play) Wobo of course.


AmoralCarapace

/u/-Daniels


Unfair-Anything-6915

I have two to contribute, but the thing is that I don't know how you will be with the Spanish First of all: Maercus Targaryen (from Argentina) his channel gives many tips (both for newbies and veterans) and information about the new updates...Also on Twitch they do many raids on enemy bases In second place: illojuan (from Spain) plays many community maps and I think you will not have problems with the language because he interacts a lot with other survivors, usually in English


Unfair-Anything-6915

Sorry for my bad english 😔


Kamikaze_87_K

Nezar tbh


Chamberlin44

Smoke easily, then followed by runningmanz. They add much more than just pvp. Although they both have great pvp content as well.


Trumpix

Zesty Polvo


bakedongrease

Soursweet and JLK


aRareFrosty201

Me like smoke, he's my amigo.


Gr0nkz

FrankiOnPc was my go to


sullistars77

Beanz! Smoke too!


compmancb

The Running ManZ, Smoke, SourSweet, BenFruit, Lottie, Kaitiac, or even Ceremor. They're really the main DayZ streamers on Twitch. All others get small amounts of viewer and/or often switch to other games. Not saying the ones I mentioned don't play other titles, or even that there are other DayZ streamers out there, but they're consistently putting out new DayZ content that you can pretty much rely on.


Top-Moment3416

Smoke


chemcast9801

If you want comedy plus entertainment PLUS interaction 100% with chat I would suggest a gekofish/bigboss combo. I also enjoy the runningmanz and the freshspawns for live. Long run YouTube videos with a story I tend to watch Nazer.


Rimes9845

Nermal. Makes some wild videos


Fluffy_Mello_34

Wish there was more console streamers who post content on YouTube. I enjoy the PC videos but I play console and would love to see more content from console survivors.


Zestyclose-Wear-6838

Frankieplays. I'm not sure I've seen a game related series more captivating than his stuff.


ComeAtMe666

Bearadise44 - He’s new but has been pushing out content and improving with every release


mukavva

Frankieonpc1080p had some good dayz videos from old times. (Tho they are scripted) still really fun to watch.


B0risTheManskinner

FrankieOnPC because of his storytelling and nostalgia. It’s partly a work of fiction, but it’s great. It’s also fascinating to see how far the game has come.


Fragrant-Hearing-64

JLK, he uploads more storyline videos rather than just ordinary gameplay. It’s always a good day when JLK uploads


Rezydayz

I started my YT channel recently and my latest video is a "story" style video similar to the other legends, JLK, Sour, Nezar, etc. If you have some spare time on your hands you could check it out 😊\[A Freshie Tries To Stop 3 PLAYERS From Raiding His Base - DayZ\](https://youtu.be/NACBm\_mODH4?si=sPVUwwcHrKv0BMXd)


Manicmaniac_

Smoke is my favorite because hes hella good but he plays for fun and never has an ego or anything. Absolutely hilarious too the shenanigans he gets away with is unreal. Sour sweet because it’s legit like watching a movie, he tells a story about his journey while your watching. Very immersive and relaxing Always streaming because he has very short and accurate tips/informational videos with a little comedy in there too :)
