Popular Twitch streamer and OTK member Mizkif has been in the news recently. The streamer shook the internet when he announced that he would be leaving his signature Austin, Texas, house. For those who follow the streamer's videos, Mizkif has been using that house for close to five years, and it has become a normal setting for his live streams.
For the last stream in Austin which happened on March 15, 2025, Mizkif shared an emotional moment of leaving the house, marking the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. He even hired a helicopter to take him away, leaving his followers with a lasting impression.
@EnergySpare8224 shared the news on Reddit with the caption:
"End of an era."
Fans of the streamer have taken to the comments section to express their nostalgia for the Austin House.
"My favorite era. To think it started like 5 years ago is crazy. So much has happened since then but it still feels so recent," @cockherofc commented.
"Every time Mizkif moves it usually signals a shift in who he collabs with, the content available to him, and sometimes the overall vibe and quality of the stream. In this case, many fond and not-so-fond but still impactful moments transpired here, and some people are nostalgic for the peaks that happened during Miz's stay here." @brayvas stated.
"F*** dude this makes me so sad. It feels like just yesterday he was in his SM64 speedrun era. The passage of time is real man...." @Antgeezy added.
More netizens wished for Mizkif to move on and start something new.
"Sad but exciting. Very bittersweet. House had many memories but was also a subconscious anchor to his ankles. I felt like during and after covid the streams have just been the same. I can't wait to see what streams he does from now on." @RANNI_FEET_ENJOYER commented.
"I hope Miz can move on from the trauma of that house. He's been saying that house has been messing with him mentally since everything went down. Excited to see him turn a new leaf." @UziMouse stated.
"Change is sometimes good. Obv he had lots of great memories, but many not so great as well. Nothing lasts forever, only thing u can do is to keep moving forward, & look forward to the future." @zoneout000 added.
Other netizens expressed their admiration for the unexpected helicopter video.
"Perfect ending of the season and the end of a chapter in The Life of Miz. Love how he gave us the Michael Bay Ending of Transformers. LOL! Godspeed Mizkif and have fun in Japan!" @Intrepid-Train-6872 praised.
"I was not expecting a helicopter lol. Great job Miz, thanks for all the great streams and have fun in Japan," @Natural-Wrongdoer-85 replied.
"I was not expecting that at all, Amazing season finale." @Snipall added.
