History[]
Jack made his current channel introduction on January 16, 2015 and was still a commentator in MLG tournaments[4]. He was mainly a Call of Duty gamer and a part-time vlogger during his time as a small gamer. He had made a series of stream highlights on his channel containing his call of duty moments[5]. Jack made his first Fortnite: Battle Royale video on February 10, 2018, [6] and had gained more exposure in March 2018 due to him joining OpTic. Jack's most viewed video is a Fortnite challenge called, "4 Corner No Kill Challenge", where Jack and his 3 teammates will be split to go on each side of the Map, and is not allowed to eliminate anyone.[7]
Jack joined OpTic Gaming on March 12, 2018, due to his professional commentary and professional gaming. However, on November 16, 2018, news came out and one of the OpTic members on Reddit says Jack is leaving OpTic because of Jack's growth on his own brand. Conflicting sponsors are another reason to why Jack left OpTic. The OpTic members accepted Jack's agreement and went his different path from OpTic.[8]
Unlike his friends Ninja and Shroud leaving Twitch for Mixer, Jack announced on November 4, 2019 that he will be streaming on YouTube.[9]
