Reckful

He has a girlfriend.

One of his friends in high school gave him their WoW account and it was already called ‘Reckful.’

Reckful was introduced to video games by his brother when he was two-years-old. As a child, he preferred console games over PC. At the end of 1999, his brother bought Asheron’s Call for research into MMORPG’s for a game idea that he had, but the two of them became absorbed by it and that dream ended there. Reckful later moved to WoW.

In 2010, Reckful joined compLexity Gaming and won the 2010 MLG Finals in D.C. He saw that competitive play wasn’t that lucrative at the time and decided to quit WoW, which he did for a year. When he returned to WoW when his friends encouraged him to begin streaming his gameplays in order for him to get noticed by the team of a new upcoming game called Forge, in the hopes of being signed on by them as a developer. That game ultimately failed to perform, but it did launch him into his streaming career. He has been streaming full-time ever since.

Reckful has short, dark brown hair and a short beard. His eyes are also dark brown and he has a round face.

He has a good relationship with his parents and visits them regularly. He has a brother and had another who passed away.

He is estimated to have around 800 subscribers. This would net him between $2,000 - $2,800 USD per month, excluding revenue from sponsorships, tips and merchandise sales.

He doesn’t have a set schedule, but streams for between 4 – 14 hours when he does do so. This is likely due to his commitment to developing his own video game.

Reckful feels that becoming a successful streamer depends largely on luck, and possibly getting stream bombed by a major streamer.
