# The Overnight Sensation Who Redefined WoW Grinding

If you were anywhere near Twitch in 2019, you probably remember the collective frenzy around World of Warcraft Classic's launch. But one streamer's journey stood out from the crowd: a Maltese gamer who decided to see how fast he could reach the level cap, only to accidentally become an internet phenomenon in the process.

JokerdTV, a 28-year-old from Malta, wasn't planning on becoming a viral sensation. He was just another WoW fan excited about the Classic release. But when he committed to an all-out race to level 60, something unexpected happened. What started as a personal challenge turned into a community event watched by hundreds of thousands. At his peak moment—when he finally hit that magic number—he pulled in 347,000 viewers despite having only about 100,000 followers at the time. The stream became legendary, not just for the achievement but for the sheer dedication it represented. Rumor has it he lost 3 kilograms during the intense grind, a detail that made his accomplishment feel more human and relatable to viewers watching from their own gaming chairs.

What's interesting about Jokerd's approach isn't just the speedrunning aspect—it's how he's maintained relevance beyond that one viral moment. While many streamers might have faded after the initial WoW Classic hype died down, he's carved out a consistent presence, now focusing significantly on Old School RuneScape alongside occasional WoW content. His streaming schedule is no joke either: nearly 9 and a half hours daily, totaling over 270 hours in a single month. That kind of commitment has earned him a loyal following of around 335,000 Twitch followers who tune in for his relaxed, authentic style. Unlike some streamers who rely on constant hype, Jokerd's charm lies in his low-key personality—he's the friend you'd grab a coffee with before diving into another gaming session.

Beyond the streams, there's a personal side that fans have come to appreciate. His Instagram gives glimpses into life off-camera: selfies, photos with his cats (who occasionally make cameos during streams), and that one slightly surreal picture with a tiger that has to be seen to be believed. This balance between dedicated gamer and regular guy makes him relatable. He's not trying to be someone he's not—he openly describes himself as a "28 year old dude living in Malta that plays too much video games," and that honesty resonates with his audience.

Today, JokerdTV remains a steady presence in the MMO streaming space, ranking impressively across multiple categories on Twitch. While he may have initially blown up for that one incredible WoW moment, his longevity proves he's more than just a flash in the pan. In an era where streaming careers can be fleeting, his consistent output and genuine connection with viewers show that sometimes, the simplest approach—just being yourself while doing what you love—is the most effective strategy of all.
