Five reasons why Dr Disrespect is better than Shroud

Eli Becht

Dr Disrespect one of the biggest Twitch streamers on the platform, but is he better than shroud? It’s up for debate but here are five reasons he is better.

The rivalry between shroud and Dr Disrespect is arguably one of the biggest across all of Twitch. The two streamers regularly take jabs at each other during their streams whether it’s making fun of an injury, looting speed or something else.

Doc and shroud always have something to say about each other and that’s what keeps the friendly rivalry between the two exciting. Shroud might have the edge over Doc in subs and viewers but that doesn’t mean he is a better streamer.

There are numerous reasons Dr Disrespect is just flat out better than shroud but let’s take a look at five reasons for now.

Dr Disrespect’s production value on Twitch is unmatched

The Doc in his natural habitat.

Thanks to the work behind the scenes from Alex, Dr Disrespect’s production value of his stream is miles ahead of shroud, and pretty much every other streamer on Twitch.

Whether it’s him appearing in a portal while playing Apex Legends or having his head stick out of a cannon in Sea of Thieves, the Doc has a scenario for pretty much anything.

Longtime viewers might even remember RoboDoc, his PUBG persona that has since been pretty much retired. 

Outside of that, he also has the different scenes he can switch to which include the rooftop of the Twitch headquarters, his trophy room or his garage filled with Lamborghinis, just to name a few. 

Alex always has something cooking behind the scenes for members of the Champions Club. 

Speaking of which…

Shroud doesn’t even have a name for his subs

Welcome to the Champions Club.

If shroud really is the face of Twitch now and has the most subs on the site, then why doesn’t he have a name for his subs? 

Doc has had two cool names for his subs now – The Slick Daddy Club and now the Champions Club – while shroud can’t be bothered to come up with a name as simple as the shroudites or something.

The Doc will regularly mention how many million viewers he has watching him in the arena while shroud just refers to his viewers as ‘chat’ which isn’t nearly as cool.

Doc will always tell you how he feels

If there’s one thing about Dr Disrespect, it’s that he is never one to pull any punches. He has always given an honest opinion on a game he’s playing and takes frequent shots at the AAA gaming industry.

Doc knows a thing or two about how things work behind the scenes of videos games since he used to be a developer himself.

Take a look at this rant he had about Firestorm, Battlefield V’s battle royale mode.

Doc took aim at the EA published title, one publisher he is an outspoken critic of, and that’s certainly not the last rant he’ll go on. Don’t even get him started on Fortnite.

Nobody is more entertaining to watch than Doc

The two-time with his signature G FUEL.

Many will argue that the two-time back-to-back Blockbuster gaming champion is washed up competitively but he can certainly stake his claim as the king of entertainment on the platform.

Doc will always have something yell about or some scene to transition to that will keep viewers entertained. If you go directly from his stream into shroud’s you’ll certainly be disappointed with the result.

Shroud is often found leaning back in his chair playing games without much chat interaction. There are moments will shroud does share emotion but it doesn’t happen as often as it does on Doc’s channel, which is disappointing if that’s what you’re looking for in a streamer.

Black on Blackberry G FUEL

If shroud is so popular then why doesn’t he have his own G FUEL flavor?

There aren’t a whole lot of streamers out there that have their own flavor but Doc managed to make the cut since he is a step above his competition. 

Doc has the Black on Blackberry flavor which is definitely something blackberry fans would be fans of. It’s even rumored that this G FUEL flavor is the reason he has a 37-inch vertical leap.
