Like many popular broadcasters on Amazon\u2019s video platform, Mizkif attended TwitchCon 2019 in San Diego, where he met up with plenty of friends, streaming colleagues, and EwOk herself. There was one interaction at the event that surprised him, however, and left him in tears, after he was personally thanked by one of the FaZe star\u2019s superfans \u2013 who was also deaf like Wheeler \u2013 for everything he had done to promote the deaf community online. \u201cThis guy came up to me for EwOk, and he gave me his phone,\u201d Rinaudo explained on his September 30 stream from the San Diego zoo. The Twitch star revealed he thought he was asking for a photo to be taken, before he saw the text on the phone. \u201cIt had text on it, and it said \u2018Thank you for all that you do for Ewok\u2019. He was deaf, so I messaged him back and said that it was my pleasure. He was like, \u2018You helped our community so much\u2019, and I was like \u2018damn\u2019.\u201d Mizkif\u2019s girlfriend Maya Higa, who boasts her own following for her Just Chatting streams, interjected into the story that Rinaudo started crying when he read the messaged. He didn\u2019t deny it either, and said he was blown away by what Ewok\u2019s fan had written to him: \u201cIt was crazy, I started crying yeah. It\u2019s nuts to see these people, and their change so much.\u201d It wasn\u2019t the first time Mizkif had cried during the TwitchCon weekend either. He also revealed earlier in the stream that when he met EwOk herself at the San Diego event he started crying then too, because he was so happy. \u201cYou were crying?\u201d he replied to his chat as they spammed \u2018FeelsStrongMan\u2019. \u201cSo was I, dude. When I met EwOk, I was supposed to be going on another stream, and then I met EwOk and started crying, so I dipped and went to Subway instead.\u201d EwOk and Mizkif have shared a fun relationship across Twitch since TimTheTatman first fired the deaf streamer into the spotlight. Most recently, Rinaudo wished Wheeler a happy 14th birthday in sign language, alongside a message saying he was \u201cproud\u201d of her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mizkif stunned by heartwarming moment with EwOk superfan Mizkif, Twitch \/ FaZe ClanTwitch streamer Matthew \u2018Mizkif\u2019 Rinaudo was left stunned after a heartwarming conversation with a fan of deaf FaZe Clan star Soleil \u2018EwOk\u2019 Wheeler.
