Channels[]
NicsterV[]
Nicolas started his NicsterV channel on October 24, 2011. He started as a Minecraft YouTuber and has also made multiple tutorial videos and commentary videos that are not Minecraft based. He then started doing multiple daily uploads, and they would contain both Minecraft and Roblox. Then he left playing Minecraft on the NicsterV channel and completely shifted to Roblox. The NicsterV channel was his first and main channel before he started his second channel, called MrTop5, on July 2016.
MrTop5[]
In July 2016, Nicolas began his Fortnite channel known as MrTop5. His first video talked about a television alert seen in-game. He met Shadical in mid-Season 4, who was a fan of the secret skin "The Visitor". Deadlox, aka Lox, nicks friend. When a live event occurs in Fortnite, his goal is to attempt to stop the event and prevent the game from moving forward, except for a Travis Scott concert that occurred in April 2020. He has finally "stopped" an event during "The Device", aka the Doomsday live event. When the Cloaked Shadow skin was released in Season 7, it became his permanent and signature skin. He also pranks his friends and does Fortnite theory videos. After the third week of October, he never did a theory video for Fortnite until January 25, 2020, discussing Unreal Engine's new Chaos physics system with Shadical. In a former team channel called Team Forknife (which was him, Shadical, Lox, Bodil40, Wyatt, Liam, and more), he posted reaction videos in which, if he laughed at any of these Fortnite memes, he had to delete the game. After a month, the channel only belonged to him. After a fashion show in Chapter 2 - Season 2 and being assaulted by a stalker, Shadical left, and now, it was only Lox and N3ON. Shadical returned at the start of the next season. On August 2020, Nic started a Fall Guys channel titled "MrFallGuy". This channel became his main channel as he posts more on MrTop5 then he does on NicsterV.
MrTopCraft[]
On June 8, 2019, Nicholas created a channel dedicated to him playing Minecraft known as MrTopCraft.
MoreMrTop5[]
In November 2018, Nicolas joined YouTube with the "MoreMrTop5" channel. The channel was for extras of MrTop5.
Controversies[]
Free Robux[]
Nicolas has been exposed multiple times for making 'Free Robux' videos. Robux is a form of currency used in Roblox to purchase items in the catalog, buy game passes, games, and Roblox Premium. According to Roblox's TOS, there is no such thing as free Robux; they can only be bought using real-life money. Any generator, program, or Roblox game that promises to give you Robux is all a scam. Since Nicolas's fanbase is young, they usually believe in the misinformation in his videos.
Feud with SynthesizeOG[]
Nicolas tweeted, 'Clickbait on YouTube gives you short-term success.[sic]' Another YouTuber known as SynthesizeOG exposed him by screenshotting his Tweet, screenshotting his channel's videos, and making an entire Tweet containing it.[1][2]
Feud with Legobloxian[]
Another YouTuber is known as legobloxian exposed Nicolas for using him.[3] Lego mentions that he had asked Lego for a DM back when Lego was a small YouTuber and would freak out about it. Nicolas told Lego about being scared of a future exposing video of him, and Lego mentions it is not a good way to start a friendship. Lego then showed three of Nicholas's videos that show Lego's videos to give him the video ideas, and Lego calculated that Nicolas gained $1.5K just for reacting to his videos.
Nicolas responded to Legobloxian and mentioned that he had blocked him first before he essentially 'ignored' him.[4] Nicholas also mentions that he got permission to react to Legobloxian's videos because he was 'fanboying'. Nicolas then mentioned how he uses Discord and said he does not use Discord. Legobloxian has already added Nicolas, as he was able to DM him (you have to be friends with MrTop5 to DM him on Discord). Nicolas also shows that he does not use Discord and screenshotted his friends DMing him on Discord but has yet to respond. He said it does not make Nicolas hate his other friends who have DMed him on Discord. Legobloxian stated on Twitter that he and Nicholas made wrong and right points. Lego mentioned that they are now 'cool'.[5]
