Alternatives to G Fuel: Gaming Energy Drinks Part II
Vložit
- čas přidán 31. 05. 2024
- I'm back with another huge gaming energy drink video! In this video, I compare 5 more energy drink companies, all with transparent labels. Does G Fuel have lead in it? What is Maltodextrin? Are artificial colors bad for you? I answer all of these questions and more. This is another video in the series called "Tried and Tested". In these videos, I will dive into products and bring you everything you need to know about them. The goal is to bring you unbiased information mostly based on science and facts, with my own subjective opinions as well.

To get to 200mg:
200mg/C per scoop = # of scoops till 200mg
Servings per container if 200mg:
Servings/# of scoops till 200mg = 200mg servings
Price per 200mg:

The intro was just poking fun at some of the comments I get. You know I love you all! Which drink are you going to try?
I am drinking gfuel cuz I like having lots of flavour options and the energy is good in my opinion
im getting my hands on a sneak sampler pack in a few days
I just picked up Advanced Rainbow Sherbet, but Sneak's Purple Storm is definitely next! Thanks a bunch for all this great info!
Hello! Can you do a review about the Sneak Cans? Pls!
So far I've only tried GFuel products. The only flavors I care for are Pink Lemonade, Fazeberry, Blue Ice, and Sour Chug Rug. Those are the least chalky ones I've tried and have the least aftertaste. The canned drinks are way different. I only like Chug rug canned. I hate fazeberry canned but it's amazing when you scoop and shake.
You should make a “Still Chalky” shirt
Haha I'd buy one
i'd buy one
yess
totally would buy it
"You chalky bro?"
I swear this guy has some of the most consistently in depth health videos that are still presented in an interesting format and on topics relevant to me lol
That’s like... everything I try to do with my videos. Glad it comes across that way!
@@FracnoTV You deserve more recognition!!
it's still CHALKY...
ladies and gentlemen, we gottem
Honestly he just makes quarantine much better with exercises in gaming, information on energy drinks, and gaming overall
Why is there already a dislike? This is why we can't have nice things!
It was me by accident lol
BAN HIM!
G-fuel saw the vid is my guess.
what an underrated youtuber. Keep it up!
So weird! Just finished rewatching the first one this very second. Picked up some advanced today. I hope you go far in life man, seem like a real genuine dude ✌🏻
bro these kids be defending an energy drink company they dream about being sponsored by and they haven’t even tried it lmao
Holy yes, I know you said you didn't want to become 'that energy drink CZcamsr' on the stream I caught you on, but I can't express how much I appreciate your videos! These very well thought out videos about drinks like this have always been something I hoped I could find and your very inclusive, and humble personality does a lot for your videos! Keep up the work man, love the honesty!
Thanks for this content man. Was extremely informative and helpful. Your production quality is absolutely amazing and is one of the best out there! You’ve definitely helped me narrow down the either sneak or advanced!
Honestly, I watched part one just for some general information and I left impressed enough by the thorough nature of your video that I subscribed thanks bro
Good god the production value on your videos is through the roof. Keep up the good work and don’t stop.
i watched the first video and it was what i was looking for and here i am for the second video. i am glad i've found you. very informative with personal preference, the video was well made and no bullshit just straight to the point. I've learned alot you won a like and i've subbed right away.
Heya. I watched your first part on the energy drinks. Thanks to that video, I decided to go with Sneak, and I must say, I loved it. I’m so glad you made a second part. I hope you make this a continuous series. Thanks!
I highly appreciate the professional and honest approach that you carry out your videos with. Thank you very much for your hard work!
Love your videos, man! Incredibly informative, engaging, and satisfying to watch with the great production. Keep it up!
My new favourite channel hands down! Keep up the great work!
In depth and clear. Found these videos when I was looking for an alternative to pricey canned energy drinks, I went w samples of sneak and tried my first one today. Can't wait to try more flavors tbh. Good to hear about more options even if I'm pleased w what I have so far.
Thanks for the awesome series. Can't wait to see what you come up with next. :) (Also, imagine putting Himalayan pink salt in your energy drink WeirdChamp)
Amazing video! The levels of production is insane and how informative it is!
Love the new visuals with the glass next to the tub
I’m pretty stoked on that change!
Insane production value and quality as always, great video Fracno
mad respect to you. your reviews take a lot into account and is very informational :D
I found you a week or 2 ago. You really put out great content. Thank you for all the hard work
You should do a review of the 'gaming energy' cans too like the mountain dew gamer fuel, gfuel cans and the Sneak energy cans whenever they are out. You can compare it to a standard redbull to see whats the difference on them ingredients wise.
Thanks for giving us informative content! Hope your channel grows greatly.
This is such a well put together video. Considered and professional, great work.
I love how he did everything GFuel fan boys said to do yet it didn’t change anything...because that’s what GFuel is chalky and grainy
He said nothing about how Jugg is the only one that isn't chalky on that review
Ngl as someone who has tried Gfuel and drank it for a good amount of time. I agree that it's chalky and grainy it's sort of why I switched companies and went to Gamer supps. But I am definitely gonna go and try Sneak and maybe another one of these companies.
He filled the scooper over the top tho
@Tactical EDC by a little bit only, as a long time user of ex-gfuel user there is nothing you can do to stop gfuel from settling after a few seconds or keep it from being chalky, that's just how it is. Ice doesnt help, and even diluting it more than needed doesnt help much. If there is something that works... well then thats too much shit to do every time you want to make a drink
Amazing intro and visuals! Loved your first video, even though I've never tried Gaming energy drinks and probably never will, but your content is always entertaining and really informative. Keep it up!
Thanks! I know these energy drink videos are popular but I’ll be taking a little break from them for a bit to make room for other content. So if you’re not into energy drinks but you like my content, make sure you’re subscribed for the stuff coming soon!
@@FracnoTV Can't wait! Notifications on!
Another great video! From your first video, I decided to get Sneak and Rogue, and I'm very happy with those -- they're a great balance of price, taste and ingredients, plus I definitely value transparency and not just "angel dusting" with the focus ingredients. I don't think I'll try Ghost or Advance just because it's double the price for an insignificant amount of performance difference, but that's just my personal choice.
not gonna lie, my first video i watched of you was the energy drink one, but ive watched so many of your other videos now and ive found quite a few of them very helpful / educational!
This is a good insight into "gaming" energy drink I've only tried Gfuel and its alright, but I am open to trying other brands. Thankfully enough this vid will help me choose what to try next.👍
Been drinking ghost gamer since it came out, I’m also a huge fan of their legend pre workout! Love your videos so much
Respect the dedication and quality of your videos, also love how you keep it real by declining commission and sponsors!
Thanks for this video! People dont look at the ingredients, glad you did the research for us.
the response to the g-fuel comments and editing made me like & subscribe, great work man! haha
Just came across these in the far fling future of 2021. Thanks for the reviews!
Albino Preto bottle in the background, this man is cultured! really helpful video man thank you!
And a shoyoroll shirt! 🤙🏼
This channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites
Hell yea.
Me too. Dude is just a cool guy. Raided a guy on Twitch the other night when he left stream. Purposely picked a small stream guy and the guy was so happy and appreciative. I ended up staying through that's guys stream as well because he was really cool too. From defending our freedom, to giving back to the gaming community, to helping out small streams he's just an all around awesome dude. Really hope he makes it big some day soon either here or on Twitch because he deserves it.
Was about to hit the buy button on Sneak after looking at the ingredient list myself.
That type of transparency was almost instant decision making. I wasn't surprised to hear your final conclusions but definitely sealed the deal for me. Thank you Franco, your dedication and passion shows
Thanks for watching!
Dude thank you! You're so informative!
Glad to see you've covered more of these. The first comprehensive review video was how I discovered your channel.
I just ordered a tub of MAW Energy drink powder since they have a free trial for their subscription service (basically a new tub sent monthly, billed regularly but you can cancel any time). You just pay shipping for the trial tub. I'm eager to see how MAW stacks up to Sneak.
UPDATE: My order of MAW's RIP Harambe flavor got here this week. Been drinking it for the last few days and I'm enjoying it.
-One scoop will wake you up. Two scoops makes it sweeter and the flavor very strong.
-Has a nice taste. Light, kinda like regular flavored drink mixes.
-Mixes well (almost instantly dissolves in water like they claim).
-I do feel a bit sharper with my focus but not as much as one serving of Sneak. (Probably due to Sneak having more ingredients.)
I'd order again. I do want to try MAW's other flavors.
I'm glad they also allow one-time purchases instead of a subscription.
The intro of this was genius hahaha perfect execution
Thanks for these videos, they helped and I learnt a bunch. I'm in Australia and I'm struggling to find stockists for the ones I'm interested in. However there is an Aussie company called JUICD that I've tried before and will now be getting because of the info you've given me, so cheers for that lol. Anyways, I reckon the company would be worth you looking at for version 3 of this series if that video happens :D
Got a dragon focus ad before this lmao
Great reviews subbed
i saw you show this on stream! keep up the great videos man
This guy right here gets it. Come to the streams everybody!
I'm a gfuel guy, all the sales and all the flavors are just too good to pass up for me. I like options and trying new drinks. Amazing video by the way, worth sitting all the way through. Not too many people are doing these types of comparisons.
Type 1 diabetic here, thanks for the heads up on maltodextrin. Maybe not important for most folks but boy is this helpful to know.
Jesus I love your vids, editing is on point.
Loved the followup video. I honestly do feel well informed. Plus with your background, I think you more trustworthy than most people producing videos and articles on this topic. Like I said in my comment on your other video... I am influencer for Adobe and some creative tech companies. I stream weekly on Behance for Adobe. Since I am a gamer, I have been curious about these drinks for my streams. Normally I drink Monster, Red Bull or Rockstar... and like said in my other comment the sugar in those have noticeable side effects. So this seems like a smarter way to go. Especially since I stream 3 to 5 hours at a time. So.... after watching your two vids, I think I can make an informed decision.
Love you, thanks for reviewing XGamer, gonna go buy some ❤️
Loved the video. Keep it up Fracno!
Very great and informative videos on all of these gaming energy drinks I have been drinking g fuel for the past 3 years and haven't had any problems with it some flavors are chalky to me like fazeberry. But I'm open to try others down the line and sneak and advanced peaked my interests thanks to your videos
Subscribed. This is how you do a part II video. As a Vet myself - thanks for your service.
Thank you!
I've been planning to switch from canned energy drinks to these types for trucking and I really appreciate the attention to detail. Finding a good consistent drink is tough for me but will save me lots of money in the long run as a driver (I drink 2-3 energy drinks bought from truck stops every day) and I'm hoping switching to these might be a bit healthier without losing the boost that i rely on thanks so much for your videos
I’m trucker over the road what u recommend im drinking pre work out now
Appreciate your help. You are helping me take steps away from rockstar. Keep up the good work?
your broll are amazing omg great work!
Well, since Advance was sold out of everything, I went with Sneak to give it a shot! Great work man.
The people defending gfuel are also the ones saying he barely “shaked” it instead of “shook”. That should say enough right there.
Lol fr idk why people say it’s not chalky I personally drink g fuel and I can stand and say it’s chalky and nothing will change that although I will say not all flavors are like that
@@delteriboh44 He definitely shook it enough. I shopped around and there are a few flavors of Gfuel that consistently have not been chalky, those are the ones I drink mostly.
@@THEGRUMPTRUCK Which gfuel flavours are not chalky? Because I was interested in trying one and I prefer it if it’s not chalky ahah
@@iamdavyy2930 shiny splash
all your videos are so informative. Instant sub when I watched the second video.
Thanks man!
Liked and subbed. Great info. Thank you for your service.
Thank you for doing JUJU so far I've had the cherry, blue raspberry, and bomber pop. Bomber pop is my favorite flavor.
I'm gonna be honest, I used to use X-Gamer a few years ago. I liked it because it was UK-based and the shipping was cheap. But ever since they were bought out by a Swedish company and moved over there, shipping to the UK became a pain (and more expensive). I've been looking for some alternatives (I'm mostly looking at Sneak and Beyond NRG at the moment) and your videos have helped me understand what's actually in the products a lot better.
I don't understand how you have such few subs and views, your vids are really good!
Thanks!
Where.Are.The.Other.Viewers? Seriously though, great part 2, your insane!
Awesome, Thanks for the info.. Have you tried Skywalk Laser Focus? Maybe something you can add to your next comparison. 🖖
Commenting to increase visibility! Great video
Finally, was waiting for it!
It's finally here!
Could you do a review of gaming energy drink cans like monster ultra and other similar ones, loving the videos keep up the great vids.
Yo have you heard of Legion energy drinks, couldn't find much about them and wondered if they were good. Love the content keep it up!
As in the cans? Pretty sure it’s Monster branded under a different name to compete with Bang.
I legit hope you get round to checking out Wraith Energy one day
Love the video, super informative
"yup still chalky" you had the laughs out of me there LOL
This is hands down the best video on this topic.
Personally for me after trying multiple ones, admittedly not all the ones you've mentioned here, but most of them, sneak is my favourite. I honestly love their flavours and their cans are also great, also the branding on their merch also looks amazing which is a plus they really seem to care about how they look
I ordered sneak cause of your first video and I’m on my 2nd tub of it. Now I know I still made the best decision after getting to the end and seeing you say #1 overall is still Sneak!!!!
I want you to know that it is because of this comment that I purchased a tub of Sneak energy
Came back to watch after the new MIXT video and forgot how SICK that intro is hahaha
Great video!. Gonna try out some new energy drinks based on this :)
This is the follow up I've been looking for.
These videos are incredibly well made
You’re well made.
I gotta say your productive quality is amazing. Is there any tutorials you recommend or is this just self-taught?
He started learning how to edit while setting up his twitch. Then he got some new cameras and upgraded his gear. Tutorials and endless hours of editing and practice!
I really need to get me some gamer drink! Great video dude!
Just move to the US. Specifically for energy drinks.
Phenomenal video! As a person who doesn't really have any interest in energy drinks, I honestly debated if I'd be able to sit and watch a 25 minute video of them. However, after the first one or two reviews, I found myself growing increasingly interested in learning all the facets of these drinks. I never would have thought they could be so detailed. Before I knew it, I wasn't even paying attention to how much time was going by, but more so how much information was being given to me!
Aside from that, I really like your obvious honest take on all of these drinks. You're not afraid to give praise or criticism of any of the brands, regardless of how people may react. Are you sure you prepared the G-Fuel enough though??? lol #StillChalky
Thanks for this wildly informative video!
Oh thank god bro, so Sneak caught my interest even before I checked your first Video and since u did recommend/prefer it, I went & ordered! (coming in 5 days) - Now that I see you put it at the top of the list on your second video, I feel the most lowkey type of #blessed! Since I didn't even know you had a Part II at that time.. u feel me? 😏
Gonna check more on your content, you seem awesome man! ✌
so is it good?
@@yes-uw9ie damn right
You make some really high quality videos my man
I do what I can. Glad you’re enjoying them.
I was looking for your first energy drinks video, I didn't even realise you posted this.
Should probably turn on notifications.
Don't forget to smash that like button
I'm from Germany and we have a nice selection of brands. My favorite is Levl Up which due to German food laws has to state the amount of active ingredients so that's nice! Levl Up is kinda like the German Gfuel in terms of flavors but mixes very well. We have quite a few like Fesky (more focused on Vitamins and have a Vitamin version without caffeine), Loot is really great too but only have 7 flavors and Gamers Only has caffeine free Vitamin Drinks but also Focus milkshake powders.For Sour flavors Sour Gummyworm and Pink Crush are amazing from Levl Up! Fesky has Double Kill for Sour flavor fans! The part about needing to list the active ingredients actually goes for all of these Brands due to German food laws! Sry for the wall of texts and greetings from Germany!
wanted GFUEL for a long time but seeing the positives of advanced has definitely made me choose them to try first. Love the vids man keep up the good work!
Dont get Gfuel.. stick with a brand like Gamersupps its more healthy and has zero harmful chemicals like gfuel has. unless you plan on drinking it once a week.
Kiro FACTS BRO
Bro that montage was amazing lmao. Shit was hilarious for some reason. And I’m in the Army too💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks for putting me on Sneak from your previous video.
This is EXACTLY the kind of video I've been looking for. I tried Gfuel months ago and I had no resources that helped other than people who are sponsored by gfuel. I wasnt impressed by gfuel and all these other brands I had never heard of. Sharing this with many people I game with who been asking me about supplements
Glad you found the info you were looking for, and thanks for sharing it with your friends! If you haven't already, you should also check out Part I as there is a lot of info in there as well.
@@FracnoTV already did! Started ordering from Focus and ghost to trying them both!
just got into buying gfuel, i like the flavors and energy but yeah gfuel does get chalky and settles to the bottom if you dont touch the bottle for a minute
Chalky for sure I even put it in a blender for 5 mins straight and still chalky
Yep! I love Gfuel so much and i just wish that their powders weren't so chalky when you mix them up. But other than that all the flavors I've tried have been great and it's helped me in removing coffee from my daily drinks and has also helped me be more productive in my job which is a huge benefit for me lol
@@thejaniel99 no wonder they’re on sale
Great in depth video👍
One off topic question: Where'd you get the wall panels from?
kit.co/fracno/my-youtube-kit/2686153-art3d-decorative-3d-
i watched one of your videos a while back and now im watching you again and i forgot entirely who you were until i saw your wall lol
Let the image of my face burn into your memory, for the next time we meet under such circumstances I will not be so kind. Thanks for watching.
@@FracnoTV im sorry i will remember from now on. please just dont hurt my family...
As a heavy monster drinker to wake me up on my way to work. I’m just here to see if this is a better alternative because monster makes me jittery and then crash. Thanks for the info my dude. 👍🏼👍🏼
you improved from the last video verified the truth or not of your beliefs (on food die) checked some internet buzz out, and its nice to hear more about the channel this time for me anyway. very nice, also good dunking on the gfuel simps. gold.
Awesome video as always! Just one quick question: does your Sneak dissolves completely in the water? I don't know what I'm doing wrong, or if it is supposed to be this way, but no matter how well (or long) I shake there is always little bit of dust on the bottom of my shaker. I mix one serving in cca 400 ml (13-14oz).
earned yourself a sub with that intro lmao!
Noticed the Omnipollo glass, love me some hoppy DIPAs and sweet stouts!
Aon Pecan Mud Cake is one of my favorite beers!
Thank god this came out, been waiting so long for this!
