Emiru Shared How She Feels Joining The OTK

Emily ‘Emiru’ Schunk, a Twitch streamer, is the newest addition to the streaming and esports organization OTK (One True King), which is headed by fellow streamers Mizkif, Asmongold, and others. She described why this is such a memorable occasion for her and what she wanted after joining.

Emiru became famous in 2021 after opening up about her lack of engagement with other streamers, describing how she has struggled with never being given the opportunity to collaborate with other influencers.

She explained, “No other streamers ask me to do stuff. I was so sad. And I was like, I wish that other streamers would ask me to do stuff. Not even streamers smaller than me ever asked me to do stuff, so it wasn’t even like I only wanted to collab with people of a certain size.”

All of that changed very fast when Emiru moved into Mizkif’s streaming house, which is full of other personalities, many of whom are OTK members. This helped her speedy growth, and she is now a member of the organization — a dramatic change of fortunes in less than six months. 

Emiru revealed why it was so important to her on her livestream as she stated; “I am so happy. I can’t explain how… I didn’t even think it would be like this when I first met OTK and started hanging out with them. OTK is everything I ever wanted. Both in a friend group, and in like, a career. It gives me purpose in life.”

Emiru was showered with gifts by Mizkif, Alinity, and the rest of her new housemates later in the stream, as it also happened to be her birthday. She held back tears at various moments as she pondered on her journey to joining the organization, as well as all the fan speculation that she would join by the end of 2022. 

Instead, it was the start of 2022, and Emiru’s streaming career is set to take off in the new year.
