The Origin Story
Mason Lanier began his gaming journey on the Xbox 360, playing titles like Halo and Call of Duty before transitioning to the PC scene. He first started streaming in 2013 on the 'OpTic Craft' Minecraft server to prove he wasn't cheating, though he didn't pursue it full-time initially. It was in late 2016 that he committed to regular streaming with H1Z1, where his high rank on the leaderboards began to draw a consistent audience. His early career was defined by his transition from a high-level competitive player to a full-time content creator as the battle royale genre exploded.
