Popular streamer Mizkif has stirred the online gaming community with his candid reflections on the current state of One True King (OTK), the esports and content organization he helped found. His comments came in response to fellow streamer ExtraEmily revealing her contract is nearing its end, prompting Mizkif to suggest the group has been on a steady decline since his own controversial exit.
Mizkif's Blunt Take on OTK's Downward Trajectory
During a Just Chatting livestream on December 30, 2025, Mizkif did not hold back his thoughts. Reacting to the news about ExtraEmily, he saw it as a sign of the organization's struggles. OTK was founded in 2020 with Mizkif as a co-creator and quickly rose to prominence in the esports and streaming world. However, Mizkif was later removed from the organization he helped build.
He recalled the sentiment at the time of his removal, stating, "I remember when people were saying... 'We don't need Miz,' and that they can fix the org, and they don't need me, and they can build it up themselves, and they can grow it, and it will be successful." Mizkif countered this narrative directly, admitting he believes the company fizzled out once he left and has been on a downward trajectory ever since. He told his viewers the recent developments marked a great week for him personally.
Insights into Jschlatt's Quiet 2022 Exit
Mizkif's stream also provided context on another former member's departure. He addressed the quiet exit of Jschlatt in 2022, a move that had left fans with questions. Mizkif suggested that the core issue was Jschlatt's discomfort with the constant attention that comes with live streaming.
"I think Schlatt is someone that truly just doesn't like the spotlight," Mizkif explained. He added that Jschlatt would often need to be drunk during live streams to tolerate the pressure. Emphasizing this point, Mizkif stated, "Every time I would hang out with him… I think he likes making videos. I just think he didn't like streaming. And that's fine." This insight paints a clearer picture of the personal reasons behind Jschlatt's step back from the collective.
Amid Scrutiny, A Moment of Vindication
These remarks from Mizkif arrive at a time when he himself is under renewed public scrutiny. Earlier in the same month, he was forced to publicly deny allegations made by fellow streamer Emiru. His detailed reaction to OTK's current state, therefore, is seen by many as a moment of claimed vindication. He framed the potential departure of a key member like ExtraEmily as evidence supporting his view that the organization lost its way without his involvement.
The situation highlights the often-volatile nature of online content collectives, where founding visions, personal dynamics, and business decisions frequently collide. Mizkif's blunt assessment has certainly reignited discussions among fans about the past, present, and future of One True King.
