Oroboro
Gaming Origins
Oroboro grew up playing a variety of video games, with his favorite being Pokémon: Red, Kirby Super Star: 8 Games in One!, Halo 2 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. When Fallout 3 was slated for release in October 2008, when he was still in high school, he was very excited for its release and tried to search online for any available information. That was how he discovered Justin.tv and began watching Fallout 3 streams.
Professional Gaming
After a while, he started to consider streaming his own content as well. However, he only created his own channel ‘Brandon505’ in 2010. He retained the name even when Justin.tv transitioned into Twitch.tv. He changed his channel to OboroTheNinja in 2015, and then shortened it to ‘Oroboro’ a couple of years later.
Although his channel was initially a variety stream, it really took off when he began streaming his Dark Souls PVP trolling content, where he would solely focus on seeking out and slaying other players. He continued streaming even when he began attending college.
After a few years of focusing on Dark Souls II, he decided to main Dead by Daylight instead. He does still stream variety content occasionally. As he is still studying, he continues to schedule his streams around his college courses.
He joined the Soulbrandt Twitch team in 2014.
Income
Oroboro is estimated to have ~2,200 subscribers, with an average viewership of ~340. This should earn him at least $5,500 USD per month, excluding additional income from advertisements, tiered subscriptions, tips, Twitch cheer bit donations and sponsorships. According to his Twitch autobiography, he has received over $32,409 USD from his top ten cheer bit contributors alone.
Streaming Hours
Inconsistent due to his college schedule.
