What's up guys? Audrey Cleo here for Young Hollywood at the first in theater competition for Super League Gaming. Now, there's a lot at stake for these gamers. There's big money, a trophy, and most importantly, the National Minecraft Championship. Let's go explode some stuff. It was like it was like an intro, it was like, welcome. I know, I know. I am Parker Games. What is that? Huh? It's like a movie trailer. In a world. One, one league. The Super League.

Young Hollywood

Here with me now, YouTube Gaming celebrity. Is that fair?

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

Yes. Maybe. Sure. We can go with that.

Captain Sparkles

Well, I I call you. I've I've never considered myself a celebrity in any way, but

Young Hollywood

Okay. Well, YouTube Gaming sensation, Captain Sparkles. Uh Parker Game. Hi there.

Captain Sparkles

Hey. Thanks for thanks for letting us hang out.

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

No problem. I'm very excited to hang out. I love hanging out with people. This is fun.

Young Hollywood

I can tell. Uh what's it like getting to meet some of your fans at this event today?

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

It's super fun. It's one of my favorite things to do is meet some of these fun people and like sign things and and talk and they're like you're normal, well, I mean, I'm not a normal person, but you're like normal. You're a human, you know? So, this is the Super League event. It's an event where a bunch of kids come into a theater, they bring their laptops with them and uh they're able to play Minecraft competitively against each other in a really awesome like social environment. Instead of going to the theater to watch a movie, people just come in here, bring their laptop and they play Minecraft with each other. And then we've got the spectator cam that's going on the big screen. Okay. So, there are some game modes where it's like an elimination. So, even if you get eliminated, you can still watch the action on the big screen.

Young Hollywood

There There's a lot at stake tonight. There's

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

Very lot at stake. There's high stakes in here. Yes. Um, you know, you have the the national championship for Minecraft, and Super League Gaming is very, very serious.

Young Hollywood

Oh, it is very serious stuff. I think we just need to make sure that they know how serious it is. I really think you should. Absolutely. Can you do the trailer voice?

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

I can. I can.

Young Hollywood

All right. All right, let's do it. Do it.

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

In a world. In a world. Where Minecraft, Minecraft, playing it, playing it, it can earn you scholarship money. Scholarships and a trophy. And most importantly, Bragging rights. Boom.

Young Hollywood

That was awesome. That was that was amazing. Coming this summer. I think you'd like this all the time because that would be awesome.

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

Most of the time, I usually am. They're like Do you have an off switch? Oh, it's right actually right there, right there, right here. Yeah.

Young Hollywood

You know, Minecraft has really, really taken off in the past couple of years. What's unique about this community?

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

I It's a game for anybody. I see parents in there playing with their kids. You know, I see kids always for playing the game, you know. And I've seen I've seen grandmas and grandpas playing it too. It's a game that anyone can play. Anyone can pick up. The fact that Minecraft is such a a sandbox. You can build whatever you want on top of it. You can create games within the game of Minecraft. So, the community that's been able to create all of these new offshoots, um, has really kept the game going for for such a long period of time now. And it's so creative and it's not violent. It's not crazy. I mean, it's violent, but there's no blood and gore or anything like that. There's blocks, you know.

Captain Sparkles

It's funny because the way, the pitch that my friend gave me was he said, "There are chickens that you can punch and you can place down blocks and you can build things." And I was like, "I don't know what this is, but sure, I'll try it." I'll punch chickens. Why not?

Young Hollywood

Yeah. What's your favorite thing to explode and or punch in Minecraft?

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

Ooh, everything. I'm much of a troll myself. TNT's my best friend when it comes to Minecraft. I like blowing up things, you know, animals, creepers, uh, other players in the game, and structures. Okay. Huh, you know, these giant structures made from weeks are my favorite to explode. I'm kind of a troll person at heart.

Young Hollywood

You have over 8 million subscribers on YouTube. When you started your YouTube channel, did you ever think that it was going to grow into what it has become?

Captain Sparkles

No, I just wanted to share when I got a good score in Call of Duty. And so, that's that's why I started posting. And then just over time it grew into what it is now.

Young Hollywood

I'm a little bit biased towards wanting you to win, just because you have like everything of mine and it's amazing. That's a that's a cool mousepad and shirt. That's actually more so. So, LA, is it Is it on the Oh, you have a face on the Earth now.

Captain Sparkles

Yeah, it was not It was not me.

Young Hollywood

How are things going so far?

Captain Sparkles

Uh, it's going pretty well.

Young Hollywood

Cool. So, in the first round of Crystal Crater, how'd you do?

Captain Sparkles

Oh, we won.

Young Hollywood

You won? Oh, really? Awesome. How has it been meeting some of your fans who are in there gaming?

Captain Sparkles

It's always great, you know. You can feel a little bit disconnected sometimes being on the other side of a a screen. So, to get a chance to meet people in person, um, is always really cool and especially to see them having a great time playing games, uh, it's pretty exciting stuff.

YouTube Gamers Gather Together

I'll teach you a new handshake. Are you ready for this? It's a new one. You like this. Uh-huh. Like this. This is where it gets crazy. All the way around like that. Back around. This is the part. And snap it and then explode it. Try it at home. It's very complex, but it's fun.

Young Hollywood

All right. See, who said playing video games wouldn't get you anywhere. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a couple important things to tend to.
