The Twitch streamer Matthew “Mizkif” Rinaudo is known for his event streams, often focused on German creators. For the launch of the new servers at World of Warcraft Classic, the 29-year-old has come up with something special. He is reenacting the legendary Warcraft episode of South Park, complete with bells and his mother.
What is Mizkif doing? Mizkif has recreated the scene from Cartman’s basement from the “Make Love, not Warcraft” episode of South Park – Season 10, Episode 8 – for the launch of the Fresh servers in WoW, portraying himself in a red shirt as Cartman and looking significantly bulkier than usual.
At the beginning of the stream, he explained that the plan was to kill 63,340,285 wild boars to reach level 60.
This all takes place on the “Fresh” start servers in WoW Classic, which Blizzard launched for the 20th anniversary of WoW. They were overwhelmed last night.
Killing Wild Boars – Just Like in South Park
Is he really killing wild boars? Yes, indeed, during the initial part of the stream, the three orcs are jointly beating up wild boars in the orc starting zone.
Mikzif keeps ringing the bell and calling for “Mama,” who then appears as an urgent servant and brings what is needed. However, no bowl – the love for detail doesn’t go that far.
This impresses people: The accuracy with which the basement is recreated is indeed impressive, as shown in a comparison that players presented on reddit.
They even made sure that Kenny is the only one with a particularly cheap and old computer because he is too poor to afford a better one.
The other 3 streamers are, according to reddit, bean (right), Russell (left), and simply (in the back).
On X, the producer of OTK shows how much work he put into setting up the set:
“Dude, is he trying to fool me?!”
Who is upset? Mizkif often draws inspiration from German streamers for his ideas, as it is not so common in English-speaking Twitch to implement such live events and content ideas. Therefore, Mizkif knows German streamers like Papaplatte and takes inspiration from their ideas.
In this case, however, it seems he has apparently snatched the idea from poor HandOfBlood. He mentions on Twitter that such an event for Path of Exile 2 was precisely planned: “Dude, is he trying to fool me?!”, asks the German streamer.
By the way, it used to be impossible to reach the maximum level in WoW by killing millions of wild boars, as the “boars” quickly turned gray and gave no more XP. Only when WoW changed the rules could one actually level up like this in WoW: The “South Park” joke finally comes true – even if this does not apply to WoW Classic. Therefore, Mizkif and his South Park friends had to leave the wild boars alone after a while and find something else to do.
