How long has Myth been streaming? Exploring the newly signed YouTube Gaming streamer's career

sportskeeda.com:

Ali "Myth" recently transitioned from Twitch to YouTube with much fanfare. Adding to the growing list of streamers who have made the switch, the move was widely celebrated by most of his peers and fans. However, it has also rekindled the debate surrounding YouTube's policy of poaching streamers.

Ali started streaming eight years ago in 2016 and has since become a popular streamer. By the end of his relationship with Twitch, he had approximately 7.4 million followers and almost a thousand active subscribers on the platform. Suffice to say, the move will attract a big part of his community over to the Google-owned platform.

Let's take a deep dive into how the former Fortnite TSM pro became so popular in the streaming community and how he might perform as a creator in this new chapter.

Ali "Myth" is an American streamer of Middle-Eastern descent. Born in Michigan on May 24, 1999, the streamer currently lives in Los Angeles, California like many content creators. Myth is a former Fortnite pro, which is where his streaming journey began.

However, he started his Twitch career in 2016 by streaming a now dead MOBA called Paragon, created by Epic Games. His YouTube account dates back to 2013, while his streaming career took off after he started playing Epic's new battle royale Fortnite in 2017.

According to Twitch Tracker, he burst into popularity a couple of months after he started playing the new game, garnering over three million followers by mid 2018. The meteoric rise to fame shot the streamer into the very top echelons of the streaming community.

The streamer joined Team Solomid in 2018 and his impeccable game nous saw him earn the captain's position. He even shared a residence with two of his teammates, Hamlinz and Daequan Loco.
