Nicholas Kolcheff (born November 21, 1990), better known as Nickmercs (stylized in all caps), is an American Twitchstreamer, YouTuber and Co-Owner for FaZe Clan who plays Fortnite: Battle Royale and Call of Duty: Warzone.[1]
Career
Kolcheff is from Detroit, Michigan. He first built his name as a Gears of War professional in the late 2000s. He also played Halo professionally. During this time he had multiple confrontations with Ninja due to trash talking.
He started streaming on Justin.tv in 2010. He used his success in Gears of War to build a following. He created his YouTube channel in 2011 and made videos of Call of Duty and later Outlast. In 2018, Kolcheff joined Matthew 'Nadeshot' Haag's organization 100 Thieves as a content creator. Kolcheff's channel gained popularity when his squad broke the world record for total kills in Fortnite with 54, the record was later broken by xPolitics, MannyinCali, TozSlays, and JuicyMutt with 59 kills. Kolcheff won the first Fortnite Friday with SypherPK and earned $2,500.
Kolcheff is known for his aggressive play style. He has earned over $130,000 in Fortnite prizes. Kolcheff developed an early rivalry with fellow streamer, Aydan, due to both being controller players. They are no longer rivals and often team with each other.[2]
In May 2019, Kolcheff had a falling out and split from 100 Thieves citing failed promises and poor management. He joined FaZe Clan later that month.[3][4]
Despite offers from rival streaming services, Kolcheff said he would stay with Twitch.[5] Kolcheff has garnered upwards of 67,000 viewers on Twitch.[6] He is estimated to have earned $6 million in 2019 and was the 10th highest earning gamer that year.[7]
