Family
His parents are divorced, but he has a good relationship with them and often hangs out with them.
Name Origins
Elajjaz’s first video game was Donkey Kong on the Super Nintendo. He has always enjoyed breaking games and figuring out their glitches. When he was older, he learned that there were people who exploited these glitches to run through games as fast as possible and the idea really interested him. He was especially inspired by @Siglemic’s Super Mario speed runs, which eventually lead to him attempting speed-runs himself.
Professional Gaming
Early on into his streaming career, he upgraded his PC so that his streaming wouldn’t lag. He then just had fun while streaming and hoped for the best. People gradually started joining his chat and following him. As he became better at speed runs, especially when he started streaming Dark Souls speed-runs, other speed-runners such as Noobest and Santzo would occasionally raid his channel. Aside from helping his channel to grow, it also helped Elajjaz to develop friendships and joint-streams with them over time.

According to twitchstats.net, Elajjaz has ~6,600 subscribers. This would minimally generate him a monthly income of $16,500 USD, excluding additional income from tips, Twitch cheer bits, sponsorships and merchandise sales.
