Bio

The Origin Story

Matthew Rinaudo, better known as Mizkif, began his journey in the digital space as a fan and documentarian of the burgeoning IRL streaming scene. He first gained significant attention in 2018 while serving as a cameraman and secondary personality for the controversial streamer Ice Poseidon during his cross-country RV trips. This behind-the-scenes perspective allowed Mizkif to master the mechanics of viewer engagement and narrative building before transitioning into a full-time streamer himself. His early content was characterized by high-energy reactions and a deep knowledge of internet subcultures, which quickly built him a dedicated following known as 'Mizkids'.

Rise to Fame

Mizkif's breakout into the top tier of Twitch occurred through a series of viral moments and high-concept streams, most notably his 2020 sleeping stream that earned him thousands of dollars and worldwide press coverage. In October 2020, he solidified his industry influence by co-founding One True King (OTK), a premier gaming and lifestyle organization, alongside fellow creators like Asmongold and Esfand. He became the face of massive community events like 'Schooled' and 'Parasocial,' effectively turning his channel into a hub for collaborative reality-show style entertainment that redefined the 'Just Chatting' category.

Legacy and Current Influence

Today, Mizkif remains one of the most polarizing and influential figures in the streaming world, known for his ability to launch the careers of other creators and his entrepreneurial ventures. In 2024, he expanded his brand beyond the digital screen by co-founding Iron Forge Gym and releasing his own video game, 'Unrooted.' Despite navigating significant personal and professional controversies, his impact on the platform's meta—from his 'Nintendo guy' branding to his focus on community-driven content—has left an indelible mark on how modern live entertainment is produced and consumed.
