Rug

His parents are very supportive and often feature in his content.  He has an older brother, @Brawadis. He has a pug named Bosley and another dog named Lola.

When he and his friend first got into tricks-shotting, he had trouble coming up with a name for himself, so his friend suggested ‘RugRat.’ He later shortened it when he joined SoaR.

Rug grew up with a love for making people laugh and played a lot of basketball in his spare time. However, he failed to get into his middle school team due to his height and got depressed as we result. It was around that time that he became heavily addicted to video games, especially Cal of Duty. This affected his school attendance and grades. His parents therefore took is PlayStation 3 away from him.

When his parents realized how depressed he was, they made a deal with him that he could get his PS3 back on condition that he complete his homework before playing video games and that he wouldn’t skip any more classes. It was around that time that he started getting into YouTube.

He was introduced to FaZe and trick-shotting by on of his high school friends in 2010. He thought that it looked cool, so he and his friend started their own trick-shotting clan. Bu, he dreamed of joining FaZe one day.

He went to college after high school but dropped out after receiving an $11,000 USD paycheck from YouTube. His parents were really upset at him, but eventually came around when he proved to them that content creation was a sustainable career.

He created his YouTube channel on July 11, 2012 and started uploading Call of Duty trick-shotting content to it in three days later. After a while, he decided to branch out into prank and IRL vlogging content as well. As he improved, he got noticed by smaller teams and slowly moved through them to bigger and bigger teams. As he got bigger, he started including his family in his content, and they too eventually branched off to create their own successful YouTube channels as well.

He joined SoaR Gaming in August 2012, which helped him to get noticed by FaZe. He then joined FaZe Clan on November 26, 2012 after being invited by CBass who had seen some of his CoD: Black Ops II videos and been impressed by them.

In 2017, FaZe Clan acquired their first corporate investor, Gorilla Core. At that stage, FaZe was listed as a company and its members received shares. FaZe Rug received a large share and remains a co-owner of the $240 million USD organization. He briefly tried out streaming on Twitch in June 2021 and January 2022, but has never gotten into it and has largely just stuck with uploading to his YouTube channel.
