Myth first got into gaming when he was about two or three years old and his brothers showed him Halo: Combat Evolved on XBox. When he was ten years old, his brother-in-law helped him set up his own Xbox Live account, and the two of them would compete against one another on a split-screen. When his brother-in-law saw how good he was, he invited him to join his Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 team and expose him to online gaming.
He developed an obsession with League of Legends (LoL) in high school and played it consistently for four years. This continued up until the 2017 introduction of Fortnite, at which point he switched to that game.
He began studying TSM Snapdragon videos in 2013 in an effort to get better at League of Legends. Watching Snapdragon and Soaryn made him a major TSM fan. This motivated him to try his own hand at a streaming career. Because of this, he informed his family that he would be pursuing that career after high school just before he graduated. It took them some time to get around to the notion because they weren’t thrilled at first. However, his parents eventually agreed to let him live his aspirations for a two-year probationary term.
