Raizqt
Name Origins
When he was thirteen, he became a big fan of the Dragon Ball Z video and decided to use the handle XxSoulRazorxX as a homage to his favorite weapon from the game. When he was older, he shortened to ‘RaZoR,’ because he felt that it was more suitable to use to pursue a career in professional Warcraft III matches. When he later transitioned to WoW, he found that both names were already taken, so he just used ‘Raiz’ with ‘QT’ tacked on to the end.
Gaming Origins
RaizQT started playing video games when he was eight-years-old. He began playing PoE during its Open Beta in January 2013. He instantly fell in love with it and has been maining it ever since. However, he does occasionally do variety streams between leagues.
Professional Gaming
Prior to streaming, he used to play Diablo III solely to grind for items to sell for real-world currency. While he was doing that, he would watch people streaming PoE. After about six months of watching other people streaming, he decided to try it out himself. He continued grinding and selling Diablo III items on the auction house until he had gained enough subscribers to focus on streaming PoE fulltime.
Relationships
He has a brother.
Income
Raizqt has ~1,920 subscribers. This minimally generates him a monthly income of ~$4,800
USD, excluding income from other sources such as tips, sponsorships, affiliate sales and advertising.
Streaming Hours
He streams inconsistently, but usually streams several times a week for between 4.5 – 13 hours straight. When a new league is released, he streams daily, sometimes for over 20 hours per stream.
