Mizkif claims Reckful\u2019s iconic Pokemon Go Twitch stream is \u201cthe greatest ever\u201d Twitch Mizkif \/ ReckfulMizkif claimed that the late Byron \u2018Reckful\u2019 Bernstein\u2019s iconic Pokemon Go stream that pulled more than 50,000 viewers was \u201cone of the best streams ever,\u201d and even called it \u201cgod-like.\u201d The Twitch community was heartbroken in July 2020 after Reckful, who had many beloved fans, took his own life. World of Warcraft players banded together to mourn his passing, streamers wrote fondly of him, and Blizzard paid tribute to his legacy. He had many memorable moments throughout his career. However, one that stands out is when he streamed Pokemon Go to more than 50,000 viewers on Twitch, and Mizkif believes it was \u201cone of the best streams ever.\u201d Mizkif stumbled on a question in a quiz that said, \u201cWhich streamer reached 50,000 viewers by playing Pokemon Go, which was one of the highest individual view counts at the time?\u201d \u201cReckful. Final answer,\u201d he said. \u201cReckful hit 50,000 viewers playing Pokemon Go. It was one of the best streams ever made. It was literally one of the best streams ever.\u201d He explained that it was so good that many other streamers, including Chance \u2018Sodapoppin\u2019 Morris, Timothy \u2018TimTheTatman\u2019 Betar, and himself, were glued to their seats watching it and wouldn\u2019t leave the room. \u201cIt was a god-like stream,\u201d he added. The July 11, 2016 stream was one of Reckful\u2019s biggest, peaking at 51,545 viewers. He later beat it on two occasions \u2014 in October 2017 with 55,000 people watching his journeys at TwitchCon and August 2018 with 57,000 viewers tuning him for some WoW gameplay \u2014 but the stream was record-breaking at the time. Mizkif might be a popular streamer in his own right, but he was also one of those Reckful fans, and it seems like that stream has a special place in his heart.
