Gaming Origins
Due to his father’s business, Preachflw’s family moved a lot, to the point that he attended seven different primary schools. Fortunately, he gained the ability to meet and make new friends easily from this. He spent a lot of time playing on a variety of old console games and rental games when he was a child.
He met GhostyFTW while he was in high school. At the time, he was a more affluent cool kid, while PreachFLW was quite studious, although he did still play video games as a hobby. Their school streamed the students according to their academic abilities, so between their friend circles and streamed classrooms they didn’t interact much during their first year.
During that summer, he spent a lot of time playing on his Nintendo 64. Interestingly, though they met through their shared interest in watching World Wrestling Federation (WWF) matches, rather than gaming. This happened when he overheard GhostyFTW talking to his friends about wrestling one day and decided to go talk to him about it himself. However, this wasn’t so easy, as PreachFLW was a nerd at that point. A few months later, he found an opening to start a conversation. A few days later, GhostyFTW invited him over to play WCW vs nWo: World Tour on his N64 and they have been friends ever since. In their late teens, they aspired to become pro-wrestlers, and even took classes for it.
During this time, they also transitioned to PC games, especially as they was able to go play on Preachflw brother’s PCs. His brother introduced him to mobas. He later started playing WoW during its beta stage, where he played as a dwarf warrior character. He switched to the priest class when WoW went live. He played as a serious raider in various guilds for years, until he started working and no longer had the time to play as seriously.
Prior to streaming, he was the manager of a biker bar.
Professional Gaming
In 2011, he and @GhostyFTW decided to create a YouTube channel showcasing gameplay, class distinctions and leveling, as well as other factors. Within three months they had grown enough to become partnered with YouTube and soon grew enough for Preachflw to become a fulltime streamer. Although Ghostyftw recently broke off to focus on his own stream, they are still friends.
This channel is not family friendly.
