WILDCAT

Tyler Wine (born: September 14, 1992 (1992-09-14) [age 32]), better known online as Wildcat (stylized as WILDCAT and formerly I AM WILDCAT), is an American YouTuber and video game commentator from Indiana. He is known for his crass humor and creative cursing; his cockily snide remarks demonstrate his intelligence. He is easily annoyed by ignorance and trollers like Daithi De Nogla and VanossGaming, even though he is a troll himself. He usually pitches in to play whatever games his friends play, but occasionally branches out to create content with single-player games.

Before using his famous pig character in most games, he was a life-sized Doritos bag in the sandbox game of Garry's Mod. A running gag involved crinkling a Doritos bag while he moves. Months later, his Grand Theft Auto V character model was implemented into the game. Since then, the Doritos bag stopped appearing in videos.

His Grand Theft Auto V character model wears a white motorcycle helmet over a pink pig mask, a white t-shirt with a pink wildcat logo, and zebra-patterned leggings/occasional boxer briefs. He began dating a woman named Kelly in 2015. He has three dogs named Kino, Archie and Chief.

In August 2017, he unveiled a new logo for his channel, as well as a new website where he will sell his merch from now on. His new logo is styled after his GTA V character, being a blue gradient background with his trademark helmet with a pig's nose and ears visible in white.

Channel

WILDCAT usually uploads one video per day, with the contents largely consisting of compilations of funny moments edited from one session. Occasionally, he receives sponsorship's from Ubisoft to try out beta versions of games, which he uploads whenever he is contacted.

WILDCAT also does streams on YouTube from time to time, and would occasionally upload VoDs on his channel. He also opens Pokémon card packs and plays online poker on stream frequently.

Games

Like many of the "Crewmates", WILDCAT started his channel mainly with Call of Duty (Modern Warfare 3 and Black Ops 2) commentary, later funtages, before finding massive popularity with his Garry's Mod and Grand Theft Auto V videos.

In 2016, he branched out to Battle Royale games. He started out playing H1Z1: King of the Kill, then PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, before sticking to Fortnite for quite some time (he currently has over 170 days of playtime in Fortnite), a move that introduced him to new audience but also alienated some old ones. He would have some Skribbl.io gameplay sprinkled here and there as well.

In 2019, he gradually shifted away from Fortnite, citing exhaustion towards the game as the main reason, and transitioned into Minecraft, "reuniting" with his old Crew. In the same year, he also got his hands on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019), and posted content of it throughout its life cycle.

In 2020, after a brief stint with Fall Guys (which he uninstalled after one video, but would later reinstall it), he turned to Among Us, where he uploaded a string of videos featuring not only the Crew, but some other notable content creators (Ninja, Valkyrae, Grizzy, etc.) as well.

In 2021, after the hype for Among Us wittled down, he mostly returned to Modern Warfare, while briefly dabbling on GTA V Roleplay as his Kyle Fungi (pronounced "Kye Fun-Guy") character.

Other Contents

Besides the aforementioned games, WILDCAT also uploads sponsored gameplay from time to time (usually that of Ubisoft games).

He has a defunct secondary channel, WILDCATLetsPlays, where he uploaded playthroughs of various games from his childhood. That channel has been inactive since 2014. It was renamed to "WILDCAT as well" in 2018.

Connections

Also like many of the "Crewmates", WILDCAT was contacted by Vanoss in the comment section of his first video in 2011. Since then, he has created a large circle of YouTuber friends. Besides the usual crew of VanossGaming, H2O Delirious, Daithi De Nogla, BasicallyIDoWrk, Fourzer0seven, BigJigglyPanda, Terroriser, Moo Snuckel and so on, he also frequently collabs with ImMarksman, LEGIQN and other content creators. While he often displays a short temper and rages frequently, he still maintains good relationships with his friends.

Personal Life

Tyler is currently dating Kelly, a marine aquaculturist and a former employee at Nashville Zoo. He has said he plans to marry her and have children before he turns 30, however that is outdated as Tyler turned 30 in 2022. On July 3, 2022, Tyler posted to Twitter that he and Kelly are engaged.^[1]

Tyler has two dogs, Archie and Kino.

Controversies

Snapchat Nudes Allegations

On March 25, 2022, FLEXTANGO Gaming NEWS published an update video^[2] highlighting members of the Vanoss group that engaged in the "Snapchat Game", in which FLEXTANGO alleged that the Snapchat platform was being used to solicit nude images from fans, with some shown communications suggesting underage nudes.

In one example Wildcat stated "Sent me tits :( wanky got tits but I can't",^[3] to which BigJigglyPanda replied "Those aren't tits, they are mosquito bites on the chests of underage gargoyles." WILDCAT's response was "I'll tell you what they are, better tits than I've been sent!"^[4] to which BigJigglyPanda responded "Those girls seriously look 13 years old." WILDCAT' replied "I just wanted tits ANTHONY don't judge"^[5]

Further discovered tweets by WILDCAT backed Flextango's findings, as seen in a video description link in KEEMSTAR's "Vanoss Crew ( Serious Allegations )" video.^[6]

Not long after on January 28, 2013, WILDCAT responded to a friend asking all his female followers to send him nudes, stating "you'll get them in flocks...it's not difficult. these b----s thirsty as hell."^[7]

Later on June 2, 2013, WILDCAT declared that on Snapchat he had "a couple hundred people already. It's amazing." On the same day Fourzer0seven tweeted "So @I_AM_WILDCAT gets boobs on snapchat and then suddenly stops tweeting. Coincidence? I think not"^[8] alleging that some members of the group continued sharing fan nudes. WILDCAT responded "Could've been a dude. Lol tough angle"^[9]

On June 17, 2013, WILDCAT declared "The amount of underage females that follow me is TOO DAMN HIGH"^[10] to which a young female fan responded "Your snapchat pictures are so arousing, that's why."^[11]

In another image Terroriser allegedly solicited nudes for the benefit of WILDCAT, tweeting on July 16, 2013 "Ladies please hit up @I_AM_WILDCAT on Snapchat and send pics of your breasticles."^[12] A young male fan responded to Terroriser "you're too nice"^[13] to which Terroriser replied "got any sisters with Snapchat for him???"^[14]

On June 24, 2013, WILDCAT tweeted "I like questing for snapchat titties, it's like digging for gold. I have to sift through the underage male nipples for the good stuff."^[15] Later that night he also tweeted "I'm bored snapchat me pictures of boobs IAM_WILDCAT. female boobs please."^[16]

It appeared that WILDCAT continued to ask for nudes from fans until at least August 7, 2013 in which he tweeted "Send me us boobs on snapchat k... IAM_WILDCAT"^[17]

Brealynn17 and the H2ODelirious Recording

WILDCAT at the time also began testing the waters on Twitter and making claims about H2ODelirious and his interactions with female fans, even labeling H2ODelirious as "H2O Pedophilious" in a public tweet to Jonna Mae aka MissesMae on December 24, 2012. Later, that day WILDCAT tweeted "Quick lets run a test. If you have a vag like on of Delirious' vids and I bet he'll RT you lol".^[18]

Shortly after WILDCAT tweeted "HAHAHAHA ME AND @Tasshyyy RAN THE TEST AND DELIRIOUS RT'd HER LIKE!! TOLD YOU THE THIRST IS STRONG MY FRIENDS!! LMFAO"^[19] H2ODelirious defended himself stating "lol I tweet every like :P and also followed" to which WILDCAT responded "duuuude you do not lol",^[20] and H2ODelirious rebutted "yes I do, whenever someone likes I tweet that sh-t."

On December 30, 2012, WILDCAT continued to push his suspicions about H2ODelirious, and quoted in a tweet to H2ODelirious and Brealynn "I didn't say it... RT @_brealynn17: @H2ODelirious youre more thirsty than a 13 year old with daddy issues" to which H2ODelirious responded "lmao we back to this sh-t again ;)", with WILDCAT responding "again....not me lol".^[21]

The Wildcast Podcast

In February 2020, Tyler introduced The Wildcast, a podcast he co-hosts with BigJigglyPanda, where they interview and chat with various other content creators and online personalities.

Alpha Betas

Alpha Betas is a 2021 cartoon created by Chris Bruno & David Lee, produced by 3BLACKDOT and Bush House, and starring Evan Fong, Tyler Wine, Brian Hanby and Marcel Cunningham as the four main characters. Evan, Tyler, Brian and Marcel also serving as executive producers.

On February 11, 2021, Evan posted Alpha Betas official trailer,^[22] hyping up the upcoming show for a March 13th pilot premiere. The pilot episode aired gaining millions of views within the first few days. While Alpha Betas had offers from "a bunch" of different networks, none of them gave the team the creative freedom that they knew the viewers wanted. A kickstarter^[23] was created on July 20, 2021 to help with the funding that would go into creating the adult animated series, with a goal of $750,000.

• He is best friends with VanossGaming, despite how much rage the latter causes him.
