Hi there! I'm Mapple, the co-founder of GankinZone with Dreadwolf. I'm an avid streamer, video editor, and all around content creator for our channel. My mission for the team is simple: foster an online community of like-minded people who share their experiences together and help support one another.

With the help of my amazing streaming partners, Dread and Icetamer, my dreams are becoming a reality.

I love interacting with our viewers and getting to know them. The true heroes of our channel are the people who support us every day, and for that, I am constantly thankful to our audience and wish to give back in any way I can.

I work tirelessly to figure out better ways to provide valuable content for our channel, and improve our operations wherever possible. I want our team as a whole to be reliable and consistent in our production quality.

I come from a background of running and being a part of Call of Duty clans back in the 2010-2014 era. Since that time has fizzled out, I've always wanted to make my own gaming organization once again, but the opportunity never appeared to arise.

DreadWolf sparked the idea one day for capitalizing on how much we had been playing Fortnite together and begin a streaming coalition. Though slow to take off, we stuck through the lonely times, and learned what worked best in our content and for our audience, leading to where we are today.

I play and stream a variety of games every week, including Fortnite, Rocket League, and Project Ascension. I plan to do more in the future, and I'm all ears for suggestions on what to play next.

I developed gankinzone.com, and run the live chat on our site every day. Have a question, or want to contact me? Hit the chat bubble in the bottom right - you can speak to me easily through there!

Most importantly, I hope that you enjoy our content and have fun with us. We're not stopping any time soon!

Hey there! I’m Robert (also known as Icetamer in the gaming world), and I’m thrilled to be part of GankinZone. As a lifelong gamer, I’ve always dreamed of being a streamer. Join us on our gaming adventure!

About My Gaming Preferences: I’m passionate about a variety of games, including World of Warcraft (WoW) (specifically on the private server Project Ascension), Rocket League, Minecraft, and my all-time favorites: Skyrim and Kerbal Space Program (KSP). These games have captured my imagination and fueled my love for gaming.

What Got Me Into Gaming: My journey into gaming began with a sense of wonder and curiosity. Exploring virtual worlds, battling dragons, and solving intricate puzzles drew me in. It was more than entertainment; it was an escape—a chance to become a hero, a space explorer, or a master builder. Gaming became my canvas for creativity and my refuge from reality.

About Me: Beyond the pixels and controllers, I’m a curious soul who finds joy in exploring both virtual realms and the intricacies of life. My journey has taken me through countless quests—some in-game, others in the real world.

From late-night raids to early-morning sunrises, I’ve learned that every challenge shapes us, whether we wield a sword or a keyboard. You may think that I have it made, or that my life has been easy but just 3 years ago I had been living in my car in a Walmart parking lot.

I'm not letting the world know this so people will pity me, my goal in sharing this is that no matter what obstacle you face in life as long as you believe in yourself and continue to put forth the effort to push though you can overcome anyone or thing that's holding you back.

When I’m not streaming, you might find me cooking, relaxing with friends, or gazing at the stars. Life, like a game, is full of surprises, and I’m here to embrace them all.

Other Goals: Beyond streaming, I aspire to connect with fellow gamers, share laughter, and build a supportive community. Whether it’s conquering new challenges or uncovering hidden game lore, I’m excited to embark on this adventure together. And, of course, my ultimate dream is to design my own game—to create a world where others can immerse themselves and experience the magic of storytelling and gameplay.
