Getting to Know StriderEB

StriderEB


Twitch Name: StriderEB 

Age: 24 yrs. 

Location: New Bern, North Carolina

 Do you play on PC/Console or both?


"I primarily play on PC but I do 

own a PS4 and an Xbox One S. 

They hardly see any use, though." 









What are some games you enjoy streaming? "For the past two 

months I have been streaming mainly Overwatch. I also really enjoyed streaming Tom 

Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege. Darwin Project is also super fun to stream because of the viewer 

interactivity that comes with the Twitch extension for it. Mainly Overwatch, though."


How long have you been streaming for? "This time? Roughly 5 months 

consistently. I used to stream about 6 years ago when I played Halo 4 competitively."


 What are your hobbies outside of streaming? "I listen to a lot of 

music. A LOT. I also really enjoy Magic The Gathering, although It's a super expensive hobby."


What made you become a streamer? "Back when I used to stream and 

compete in Halo, I was never happier. The past few years of my life have been rough 

emotionally and I finally kicked myself into gear and got back into doing what I love. 

Streaming."


 Is there anyone you look up to? " I really look up to Ninja. I've been 

following him since he was playing Halo: Reach and have always been a fan from his time as 

a Halo pro to now as a full time streamer. He is living proof that if someone REALLY wants 

something, and puts in the time and effort to obtain it, it will happen."


What do you love about the LurkSpeed community? 

"I love that LurkSpeed has an actual sense of community and friendship among the 

members. Most other communities I've been a part of seemed more self serving from the Top 

Dog all the way down to the average members. Blaine truly just wants to create an 

environment for small streamers to meet and network with each other. I've made friends 

throughout all my communities, but LurkSpeed has made the most impact on me as a 

streamer and as a person."


 If you had the chance to give a new streamer advice, what would it be?   

" Do not be discouraged by having low follower/viewer count for a while. I streamed for zero 

viewers for a WHILE before I gained any traction. Don't bother with Follow for Follow, either. 

A follow means nothing if they never actually come to your stream."



 Last but not least: As a child, who was your favorite super hero and villain?

"I have to answer this a bit weird. The Punisher is my all time favorite (anti) hero. If it HAS to 

be super hero, I would say The X Men (Gambit mainly.) I mean, come on. I have the X Men 

logo tattooed on my forearm. My favorite super villain is Magneto. Dude can control even 

the tiniest bit of metal. Super rad."





StriderEb has been a part of LurkSpeed for a great lengthy 

time. He has supported so many streamers and been such a 

great member of LurkSpeed.  He has always made new 

members feel  welcome into the great community while he 

has also dedicated time to help others when he can. 


If you're looking for someone fun to talk to, please check 

out his stream or send him a follow. He's a great supporter 

and LurkSpeed member and brings much joy into the 

community.
