Hi there.

Around a week ago, I started a Youtube gaming channel. I thought to myself, if I am gaming a lot in my free time why not I record it. The channel is a niche gaming channel. The youtube name is bluemario-games

Blue Mario is a reference to the first Mario Tennis game. The umpire is a blue Mario.

About My Gaming Content


My content is mostly casual gaming with Pokemon TCG Live (online client for Pokemon Trading Card Game) and casual maps in Starcraft: Brood War. The videos have mostly no commentary. (My early videos were not good and had me talking when I did not want to.)

I want to play games I like. That way it does not feel like grinding for content creation. With Starcraft: Brood War there are not a lot of custom casual maps (Used Map Settings/UMS) out there. There is one Korean youtuber that is cool but other than that, there are not many.

For Pokemon TCG content, there is not a lot of content on the Build and Battle (prerelease) casual format. So in that case, I show videos on that. Regular ranked ladder matches on Pokemon TCG Live coming soon.

These videos take time as playing the card game takes time. It is easier for me to do Starcraft: Brood War videos but the popularity is not as high versus Pokemon tcg.

One main goal is to get monetized. I also want to post stuff I like and find useful.

For now, I do no commentary in my videos.

Software I Use


For recording, I use OBS Studio. As I use two screens with my desktop computer, I had to find a way to be able to listen to Youtube plus do gaming without recording Youtube audio. I did find a Youtube help video that fixed this. It was something to do with a source. I don't remember.

When it comes to video editing, I use OpenShot Video Editor. I am fairly new to video editing so my early videos won't have fancy stuff.

Some Videos


Over the last week, I did kind of grind hard in gaming and having video contents. Here are some videos including some shorts.

Maze Defense eXpert Custom Map in Starcraft Brood War/Remastered

Starcraft Brood War - Turret Defense 24k

Pokemon TCG Live - Masquerain Bug Out Deck in Delta Reign Build and Battle

Short Video - Win & Lose in Random Bunker Defense (Starcraft: BW)

Short Video - Me Losing Fast to Tornadus, Pokemon TCG Delta Reign Build and Battle Mode

It would be appreciated if you checkout my stuff. The youtube name is bluemario-games with the screen name bluemario.

I may have future gaming posts based on the videos I have uploaded in Pokemon TCG Live or Starcraft Remastered (Brood War).

Thank you for reading.
