―Sketch's old intro | ||
Elijah Peter Best (born: April 29, 1998), better known online as Sketch (also known as Sk3tch), is an American YouTuber from Massachusetts who creates videos primarily based on the game Roblox. Other than Roblox, he creates videos on dares, Q&As, Minecraft, and many more.
He was a part of the collaboration group "The Pals". He has a twin brother, Ethan Best, better known online as Bandi, who edited his videos for him before he started making videos himself. Elijah used to play the game Mad City on Roblox, though he stopped playing the game after the popularity of it decreased. He is also known for playing the Roblox game Piggy. He sometimes plays VR and ragdoll games.
His former channel mascot was a virtual dragon named Frank. Frank was created around in 2017, but in a QnA video, he claims that Frank is a billion years old and he is the only dinosaur alive.
Along with his brother, Elijah released his first popular game, Fish Game, in 2021 following the popularity of the Netflix series Squid Game. Notably, the experience has reached over 1.4 billion visits. Elijah created much of the objects in the game, while Ethan scripted them.
