Over the last few decades we have had to helplessly watch as every brand on the planet has oversimplified their logo and I’m gonna do the same thing to your favorite Minecraft skin textures colors shading even shapes are going to be reduced to an absolute minimum I’m going To be working my way through five levels of famous skins until I’ve oversimplified some of the most famous Minecraft youtubers skins ever made starting off on level 1 however we’ve got the defaults arguably some of the most famous however not really significant of Minecraft skins no offense to Steve but he’s kind of Everywhere at this point well it does pain me to continue this trend of oversimplification you have to admit it has been an eye-opening look into what brands believe is their most recognizable feature what makes their icons well iconic and when they get it right they really get it right so while I commit crimes against nature I’m going to be using this exercise to rank these famous skins on their brand self-awareness the already very simple nature of Steve makes simplifying him well for lack of a better word very simple Steve’s brand is Iconic the light blue dark blue combo makes his brand an Easy 7 out of 10. and while we’re here we might as well knock out Herobrine too with his brand being nearly identical to Steve’s he lands himself an easy 7.2 for being 2 pixels simpler and next up we’ve got Alex if you didn’t notice I deleted Steve’s shoes but since Alex’s boots are Such a large percentage of her leg we’re going to be keeping them again however all details are Gonzo you know I realize now that Alex’s skin is a lot more detailed than Steve Steve is literally just a shirt and pants but Alex has this belt and boots and hair and trim around The edge of her she does get points for her simple facial features however this hair is all over the place I had to do a lot of adjustments just to get the shapes to be simpler overall I’d give Alex a 6.5 out of 10. and of course I can’t justify ranking Anyone more famous than myself without first ranking myself so while my skin isn’t a default it is my default look it only seems fair to put myself next right off the bat there appears to be a lot of shading that needs to be smoothed out I Designed this skin when I was like I don’t know 13. the original actually looks a little bit more like this I was going after a camouflage look on this shirt I’m not really sure what I was going for on the pants they’re weathered I guess I don’t know either way all of That detail is just fluff that needs to be smoothed over these details on my arms are supposed to be the result of scuffles in The Great Outdoors Cuts bruises mud and scrapes from roughing it as a bounce I copied over the same techniques I had used on Steve to finish off the Simplification process and I was left with this beauty gorgeous 50 but you could probably even take it further my branding is so perfect you could reduce it to digest the blackened eyes and The Mask slap that on anything and it’s recognizable as me yo mama now it’s Joe mama Florida man arrested on Charges of drop kicking a child now it’s Joe cootie punter the impending but inevitable heat death of the universe now it’s your boy joebo my Bo Joe the Joe bow okay in all seriousness I am just trying to ingrain my brand in your mind so that you’ll remember now that I’ve proven that I truly am qualified to criticize those above my pay grade it is time to move up to level two the presidents the rise of AI voices recently has led to the emergence of a trend that is healing the political divide of our modern day Barack Obama Donald Trump and Joe Biden playing Minecraft together there is tens if not hundreds of channels contributing to this right now and because of that there isn’t really one main version of each of these skins so I just split the difference by Googling them and used the First one that popped up I mean that’s probably what most of these channels are doing anyway so credit to these guys for the skin them updated starting off with art of hecto head ancho Barack Obama in pretty much every version of the AI presidential minecrafter’s I have seen The AI Obama appears to be the leader of the Munch but at the same time he has about the personality of a potato versatile in use but very plain on its own sort of like Leonardo from the Ninja Turtle so I gave him a blue mask three out of ten pretty unremarkable branding Next up is Sleepy Joe similarly to AI Obama AI Joe has some outer layer skin details which in most cases were just going to be deleted that isn’t less they play a very significant role in The Branding of the skin unfortunately there’s not a lot to do with good old Sleepy Joe’s skin to make his brand simpler besides just I don’t know making him sleepier I guess so I just started over from scratch as you sure well know by now sleepy Joe’s only other character trait is his love of chocolate chip ice cream so I turned him into an ice cream Cone see I told you I’m a branding genius two out of ten the ice cream gets 10. and lastly for the president’s League we’ve got our trump card the AI Donny now we’ll start off with his most defining feature I mean everybody’s aware of the joke by now so I’m not Really breaking any new ground by saying orange man is orange we’ll carefully outline his features we wouldn’t want to accidentally draw outside of the line we only want to oversimplify not take it too far and lose all detail what’s okay yeah it’s just orange he’s orange he’s Orange in terms of branding at the very least orange is a color that is often used to convey energy and enthusiasm humor danger ruin the end of time so yeah I’d say it’s a pretty fitting color for him one out of 10 brand self-awareness this is your new skin Donald and of course with that level 2 El Presidente is Al Dente because I’m all done Tay okay that joke’s a little undercooked but now we’re moving level three is the Hardcore four except there’s only three of them I just wanted it to run anyway first up is sandiction A Hardcore Minecraft YouTuber with a little over 2 million subscribe his skin is already so simple you’re likely wondering what could I possibly do to simplify it well first of all he’s wearing shoes nobody wears shoes naked man if you gonna be a member that Blue Man Group in a nude you gotta take them shoes off too dude plus that face on his arm is just really freaking me out like stop it dude stop looking at me I’m scared he’s gonna just say tuck it in the hand and then I’ll actually have to Try and carry a conversation with an actual hand you’re gone you’re gone nine out of 10 excellent brand next up is Kalani Colony col Colony what another hardcore YouTuber with a slightly smaller 1.8 million subscribers wait a second he walks around in an all-white skin with the giant letters KKK across the back of his head all right zero out of 10 brand self-awareness heck 0 out of 10 self-awareness how did he miss that no hey dude I just I’m sure it was an accident hold on let me fix that just wait did this man put his entire design On the outer layer his face isn’t even centered this skin is so cursed there I fixed it level three’s last Contender is SB 737 another hardcore YouTuber with 4 million subscribers we’re getting into a little bit more famous territory here I’m interpreting this skin to be a a penguin wearing a sunglasses Wearing sunglasses okay that’s it yeah that’s what it is okay 8 out of 10 branding level four I call The Butcher the Baker and the Candlestick maker because I I could not come up with any other connection between these three they’re just marginally more famous than the last group getting us started on Level four is Luke the notable at a notable 4.5 million subscribers Luke only recently created his Minecraft skin before that he was just Alex so we’re already halfway done Luke the notable skin is notably very simple um it’s based on this image here and I Just have one critique do you see what I see no let me help ah it’s it’s his nose it’s his nose looks like it nine out of ten very good very nice Jumping Up 2 million subscribers on the ladder of Fame is skeppy right away I’d say this First impressions are really great this man’s made of diamond really it’s hard to mess this up the skin is such a simple and well executed idea that there’s really only one way I can think to simplify this any further it’s just a diamond block 8 out of 10 branding and Our largest Contender of level 4 or is appropriately jumbo mumbo jumbo to be exact at 8 million subscribers I’d say mumbo jumbo has gotten a pretty famous skin and honestly Mumbo skin is a master class in branding I mean just mean look at that glorious mustache we don’t even Need mumbo’s eyes who am I kidding Mumbo doesn’t need anything but the mustache 10 out of 10. perfect branding that’s long last we’ve reached level five the tough dogs the big boys Los Chicos Grandes kicking off at 26 million subscribers we’ve got DanTDM this man is One of the ogs I’m pretty sure he was making videos back when I was still in diapers but to be fair I was still in diapers when I was like 15 so it’s not saying much the first thing I see looking at the skin is the goggle so That’s what it is goggle next up we’ve got I’m just kidding no no we’ll be kind to Sir Dan the Diamond man card so we’ll just smooth out his pants real quick and wow they look almost exactly like mine huh well we removed all the straps and The belts and smoothed out all the textures and while it’s not the simplest it’s a pretty red recognizable brand that has more than stood the test of time but it’s also conquered it 8.5 out of 10. I only docked points because there is nothing diamond or Minecart About this like where the heck did he get that name a random name General second up to Baton second to last is dream the Green Mean Machine okay I’m just gonna say it I don’t care what you dream stands think it is not okay that his face is right there it’s just he Looks like an ASDF movie character I Like Trains but seriously why does he have the face coming out of his torso I mean it makes about as much sense as so I’m just gonna fix his face here and just put his face up boom okay now secondly he just he Doesn’t have arms like that’s his whole thing before you ask where the green went it’s on the green screen that he films all his videos on 10 out of 10 branding this guy clearly knows his stuff last but certainly not least in fact with a combined subscriber count of over 230 million subscribers That puts Mr Beast at a total more than all the previous people combined unfortunately his in-game skin just looks disappointing I mean just it’s missing the most important part of Mr BEAST’s brand his open wide gaping mouth voice wallow the entirety of YouTube and then the world okay okay seriously missed opportunities Aside this skin is complicated look at all these outer layer details I’m just gonna have to get rid of all those real quick anyway Jimmy’s wearing a piece of his merch here which is pretty simple so I guess we’ll just use that for the basis of the simplified version bam okay We’ve smoothed everything out just by making it all the signature blue and now all we need to do is just add these pink lightning bolts on the side of the head okay that does not look good in pixel form I can see why they didn’t go with This and then we’ll add back in his gaping orifice okay yeah this doesn’t look good it’s meant to be overly simple not pretty 4 out of ten his fortnite skin looks better than this if you enjoyed me ripping apart your childhood before your eyes please leave a like and Then go watch this video right here it needs more views from viewers like you thank you thank you thank you Video Information
