Case Dylan Baker[1] [2] (born: May 9, 1998 (1998-05-09) [age 26]),^[2][3] better known online as CaseOh (formerly known as randomsimplestuf35^[4]), is an American^[5] YouTuber, Twitch streamer, and TikTok creator, known for streaming and playing a variety of games across his social media platforms. Baker gained significant attention starting in late 2022 through early 2023, which has continued to the present day.

Personal life

Early life

Baker was born in a modest town in Dallas County, Arkansas and currently lives in Clarendon, Arkansas. He was raised in a Christian household alongside his two brothers^[6][7] Growing up, he developed a keen interest in video games^[8] and basketball.^[9] His passion for gaming led him to spend much of his leisure time immersed in titles like NBA 2K and Call of Duty, starting from the age of 14.

Career Beginnings

Before achieving viral fame on TikTok, Baker held a position as a maintenance worker and also engaged in lawn mowing. Prior to embarking on his streaming career, he assisted his brother in producing content for a firearms-related channel. His aversion to the prospect of a conventional 9-to-5 job prompted him to contemplate improving his physical fitness and potentially pursuing a military career.

Rise to Prominence

Upon his decision to pursue livestreaming, Baker encountered a pivotal moment when his debit card was declined at a Family Dollar store, just a week before commencing his streaming endeavors. During the car ride home, his mother encouraged him to explore his interest in livestreaming, noting that he already possessed the necessary equipment. Motivated by this encouragement and a deal made with his viewers to reach 5000 subscribers on Twitch, Baker made the bold choice to resign from his regular employment and commit to full-time streaming.

At the outset of his streaming career, Baker juggled two different jobs. His journey beyond Arkansas began with his participation in a podcast hosted by Jynxzi in Florida, marking his first venture outside his home state.

Currently, Baker resides independently in a trailer in Arkansas, although specific details regarding his living situation require citation.

Present

Even though Baker gained great prominence for being made fun of constantly throughout his streams, he has later stated that he does not mind it at all and even went on to encourage it^[10]. Further details about his personal life are limited.

Online career

YouTube

Baker established his YouTube channel on October 3, 2011, but did not publish his first video until September 2022, which featured gameplay from NBA 2k23. Shortly after, on September 11, 2022, he began his streaming career, just two days after posting his first TikTok video.^[11] Initially focusing on NBA 2k23 content, Baker later diversified his channel with series on various games,^[12] such as Five Nights At Freddy's, Roblox, Baldi's Basics and Granny.^[13][14][15] Notably, he specializes in horror games, regularly uploading gameplay and highlights from his Twitch streams to his YouTube channel.^[16]

Twitch

Since launching his YouTube channel in September 2022, Baker has consistently streamed a variety of games on his Twitch channel, named "caseoh_". His streaming sessions often feature games chosen by his viewers, fostering an interactive and community-driven experience. Notably, Baker commenced his Twitch streaming activities shortly after uploading his inaugural YouTube video.

The rapid growth of his Twitch channel can be attributed to the viral spread of clips from his streams on TikTok. These short, engaging clips garnered significant attention on TikTok, contributing to the expansion of his audience and popularity across platforms.

He would often be called a "Low-income Twitch streamer," "Paycheck to paycheck," or "Scraping for nickels" by his fans on his Twitch chat and memes people made on him on Discord.^[17] His fans would also make fake news stories about him. He got invited to the Twitch partner program on November 9, 2022.^[7] He livestreams daily on Twitch.

When asked about his overall inspirations, Baker would mention Nadeshot.^[18]

TikTok

Baker released his first TikTok video the same month he uploaded his first YouTube video. His TikTok videos usually show something happening to him or being made fun of and compared to unflattering fictional characters on his Twitch streams^[19][20]. His Tiktok account would quickly explode and gain hundreds of thousands and millions of views and followers in just a few months. Fans also began making their own TikTok clip accounts on Baker. He has been banned various amounts of times on TikTok due to the games he has played.

Awards & Nominations

Streamer Awards 2024

In January 2024, Baker was nominated for multiple awards for the 2024 Streamer Awards and won an award. He was nominated for Streamer of the Year, Variety Streamer, and Breakthrough Streamer^[21]. Baker won the award for best variety streamer^[22].

The Game Awards' Content Creator of the Year 2024

In November 2024, Baker was nominated for The Game Awards' Content Creator of the Year.^[23] On December 12, 2024, Baker would go on to win the award.^[24]

Controversy

Accusations of copying LosPollosTV

In December 2023, LosPollosTV, a prominent YouTuber and Twitch streamer, publicly accused Baker of imitating his content style and mannerisms during a Twitch stream. LosPollosTV expressed frustration over what he perceived as unfair circumstances, noting that despite his own extensive experience of streaming for 8-9 years, Baker had achieved significantly greater popularity. Baker did not issue a response to these allegations.^[25]
