Twitch career[]

Kick[]
Since August, Sapnap has started streaming on Kick as well.
Collaborations[]
Dream Team[]
Nicholas is part of the collaborative group "Dream Team" which consists of himself, Dream, and GeorgeNotFound (and BadBoyHalo honorarily, sometimes referred to as The Muffinteers).
Dream[]
Nicholas' friend, Dream, originally thought of his online stage name; it is "pandas" but backward, and a "p" instead of "d".[14] Dream originally inspired Sapnap to create a YouTube channel.[15] Dream and Sapnap met in MCPVP when Dream was 13 and Sapnap was 11. (circa 2012)
Nicholas and Dream almost met three times due to living in the same cities. During their first encounter, they couldn't meet because Dream had feared Sapnap's mother.
In January 2021, Sapnap tweeted a picture of him holding what had seemed to be Dream's cat Patches, which left fans speculating a potential meetup between the two.[16] They later confirmed their meetup on a stream[17]. The two have since been living together since January 2021.
GeorgeNotFound[]
Sapnap often calls fellow Dream Team member GeorgeNotFound "Georgie". They often fight about who is the tallest between the two; Sapnap has stated that he must be taller than George in fan art of the two. Sapnap, George and Dream have made plans to all live together once member George is able to travel to the US (he currently is unable to because of COVID restrictions) but the trio have teased that a Dream Team Christmas may happen.
Sapnap traveled to the UK and met with GeorgeNotFound, and has posted photos of their meetup on March 7th[18] (more on George's twitter). It is likely that Nicholas had been in the UK a day or two before the photos were released. Dream revealed in a discord podcast on March 11th [19] that George had stated he was quite lonely, and so Sapnap offered to come to the UK to make him feel better, which would happen.
Skeppy[]
Sapnap met with Skeppy on July 14, 2020 in Houston, Texas.[20][21][22][23] Skeppy later posted a vlog documenting the meetup.[24]
Karl Jacobs[]
Sapnap has met up with fellow content creator Karl Jacobs on multiple occasions. Their first meetup was March 28th, 2021[25], the second was August 6th, 2021[26], and they have since accidentally met up around the 2nd week of October 2021, after Karl's flight had prematurely landed and he was unable to receive another flight for two days. [27]
Quackity[]
Sapnap met fellow content creator Quackity when he flew to England in March 2022. Quackity lured viewers in with the bait title 'HAIR REVEAL STREAM'[28] on March 11th, where he later revealed he was actually at GeorgeNotFound's location, along with Sapnap. It has been stated that Quackity had actually already been there for four days by this point, so Sapnap had actually met him around March 7th, 2022.

MC Championship[]
MC Championship is a Minecraft Tournament for YouTubers and Streamers run by the Noxcrew, in which 10 teams of four compete in a series of 8 minigames decided by the participants. A point multiplier makes each game worth more as each round passes, incentivizing teams to vote for games they might fail at early on in the event. In the end, the two teams with the most points face off in a round of ‘Dodgebolt’ to decide the winner of the tournament. This makes it possible for a team to win despite potentially having fewer points than the first-place team.
