KarQ Career History
Nathan “KarQ” Chan started his gaming adventures through everyone’s favorite medieval MMO, RuneScape. After getting banned from there, he found an alternative video game to pour his time into; Call of Duty, where he discovered his love for first-person shooters. As he played, he made a few uploads on his YouTube channel every now and then playing different games but didn’t get enough traction until the release of Overwatch in 2016.
When he started pushing out more content for Overwatch, the YouTube algorithm blessed him and he ended up gaining 200,000 views on one of his videos, after which his channel started growing at a steady pace. This became his primary source of income, and he chose to take his popularity from YouTube to Twitch. One thing led to another, and he started playing for Toronto Defiant in Overwatch.
Nathan’s overall playstyle with every hero is fairly balanced, and is further strengthened by his aim precision with a 2.90 sensitivity and 1600 DPI; both of which he is extremely used to. He actively plays in different roles, and manages to be his team’s shield/support/weapon with no trouble whatsoever.
Moreover, KarQ has a lot of knowledge regarding the game, and he uploads various tutorials to help his community improve.
