He would stream a variety of different games on his stream, such as Halo: The Master Chief Collection and [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]. During one of his streams, he was hosting an open arena, where anyone can join and play some matches. A member of the community suggested in his twitch chat that he should start a crew with some of his friends. Expressing interest in crews, Jay was then informed of the [[Smash Crew Server]] by [[Pokelam]] and [[Mr.L]], as well as the existence of many different offline crews within the scene. | ||
On May | On the 22nd of May, 2019, Jay had made the decision of founding the crew.
