A Kruzadar for these times
Kruising into first place,Kruzadaris the champion we didn’t know we needed.
This variety streamer has generated quite the interest over her six-year-long career.
While the journey has been tumultuous, this crusade remains a grounded journey she’s committed to seeing through.

They’ll start taking a lot of things for granted.
She was always a target between her penchant for sports and male friends found through gaming.
Her initial foray into streaming was an attempt to escape the hellish reality of her circumstances.

Her one refuge was her relationship with her family.
Meanwhile, her father, an enterprising engineer, imparted his love for video games.
“I watched him playingDoomandAsheron’s Calland thenQuake III: Team Arena.
So, I got introduced to PC gaming very early on,” she reminisced.
“I started to heavily game around that time.
I became an extreme gamer at the age of four.”
She carried that passion through her teenage years where she discovered streaming.
Those early days were just her and the game.
Her initial intention was to stay relatively anonymous, going so far as to opt-out of showing her face.
Before graduating high school, she had garnered a sizeable following streaming playthroughs ofMinecraftandGarry’s Mod.
“I was a shell of the person back then because of my circumstances.
I can game with other people that are interested in what I’m interested in,” she said.
Her star began to rise, and she officially went live as a partner in November 2017.
With that stardom in this predominately, oftentimes toxically, male space has come another set of problems.
Problems the streamer is still carrying to this day.
She suggests these aren’t your average trolls, either.
Instead, they’re adamant misogynists with the hope of toppling the refuge she’s created.
There’s a darker side that a lot of people don’t know that you have to deal with.
Be yourself and have a good time with it.
Her community helped her through these times.
She describes it as the closest thing to a family one can have online.
She came to streaming to escape juvenile bullying just to endure it all over again.
This time, however, well-equipped with the tools to preserve and combat the hate.
Her advice for future crusaders?
Be yourself and have a good time with it," she ended.
“It’s gotten lost with people now doing it for money instead of doing it for fun.
Use it as an escape instead of for clout.”
