Stacy, and her close friend Joey, were asked to participate in Season 5 of Cube UHC, which stands for Ultra HardCore. She was able to last up to second place, but ultimately, she died.
Stacy returned to the Cube UHC Season 6 later, without Joey. This season was a partner season, and she was randomly selected to be with Kermit, where they both were eventually killed in the fifth episode.
Stacy participated in the Cube UHC Season 7. This time, she was all alone, as the rules of this season didn't include teams as the previous one did. A special feature of this season was using the microphone plugin Mumble, which makes players able to hear other players if they are within 100 blocks from the player. She made it to the final four, but was killed by Grapeapplesauce.
Stacy returned for Season 8 of Cubs UHC, with several changes occuring to this season. Such as being on a completely vanilla Minecraft server, and having a team of three. Stacy's team was called "Tigermilk", comprised of Tofuu and Rusher. She was finally killed by ThatOneTomahawk and HBomb94.
After Season 8 of Cube UHC, Stacy didn't return. She believed that she had enough of an adventure with the last one, and had other projects to do. Until May 2019, Stacy and 39 other YouTubers reunited to play Cube UHC Season 20. She was killed by TheBestGinger13 in episode 7.
