SethBling (born 1987) is an American Let's Play YouTuber who is known for his videos focused around Minecraft as well as for speedrunning. Nowadays, he typically plays Mario-style games and speedruns.
SethBling grew up Jewish. His nickname is derived from his AIM screen name in high school. He started playing Minecraft after college, because he liked the idea of a "completely moldable world". SethBling worked as a software engineer at Microsoft for three years.
SethBling is known for recreating video games and real phenomena in Minecraft. He experimented a lot and exploited bugs in Minecraft in a useful way.
In 2012, SethBling recreated the Team Fortress 2 "Dustbowl" map in Minecraft; the map included player classes and an instant respawn system. In the same year, SethBling created "Super Pirate Battle Royale", a Minecraft minigame for two teams in which the team that sinks the other team's ship wins, and "SkyGrid", a Minecraft map which has very scarce resources. "Skygrid" has been downloaded over 700,000 times as of September 2017[update]. Several of SethBling's minigames were featured on Minecraft Realms, one of which is "Blocks vs. Zombies", a 2013 tower defense minigame in which players shoot arrows to defeat incoming zombies. In 2014, SethBling and Cubehamster, also a Minecraft YouTuber, created a minigame called "Missile Wars" where players spawn missiles in order to break through the other team's wall. It was also featured on Minecraft Realms. In 2014, SethBling recreated the sandbox video game Goat Simulator and the puzzle game Bejeweled in Minecraft. In the same year, SethBling recreated basic functionality of Minecraft in Microsoft Excel, which included mining and crafting. In 2015, SethBling created a Minecraft version of the online game Agar.io as well as of Splatoon's "Turf Mode". The Splatoon minigame is similar to the Wii U game; in the game, two teams of at least four players compete to paint as much of the landscape as possible in three minutes. The Minecraft version of Splatoon also features voice chat, which the Wii U version does not.
