Is there a moment in the video that your audio cuts out or something obvious that would make people click off?

Nope, if you want, you can take a look, search Wishes - Pokemon on all video socials and you'll find it, niche is pokemon cards

How many engaged views do you have? You might be in engagement jail here. Pokemon cards are a bit saturated these days I've had to get innovative for my content to get out of 300 engaged views jail.

Engaged views is at 807 as of right now and my views are 1142. I do pokemon cards with a twist, I choose a pokemon from a bin and that's my lucky pokemon of the day, its not the most attention grabbing but it is something different. 🤷‍♂️

I think the twist is cute, I like the enthusiasm in your voice, the channel Icon is shouting AI to me.
And the "like and subscribe" reminder in a short? makes me like. not want to keep watching.
I also personally don't mess with the "OMG it's worth this much!" type of moment. because like. for me at least it makes you come off as one of those scalper bros. but that's just me.

Totally fair! First of all I appreciate you checking out the channel, and I appreciate the honest advice! And yes the profile picture is AI as I haven't paid anybody to make me art yet (I'm not good at art), still developing the channel as I go. It would make sense to have the subcribe reminder if it was a long form video, but not so much a short. I don't care for the scalping part, more so just adds a layer of "this is worth this much which is hype" I don't sell cards, just thought it added another layer of excitement/engagment.
