Dylan is from Nebraska but currently resides in San Francisco, California where he now works for the streaming company, Twitch. He lives with his husband Nigel aka Delphron, an Irish gaming youtuber who he met during the Harmony Hollow series.

Cube Ultra Hardcore
Season 11
- Main article: Cube Ultra Hardcore (Season 11)
Similar to first timers, 8Bit was unfased by the Ultra Hardcore gamemode. He played his game very poorly compared to the other debutees. On the surface, Tybzi spotted him. He has built a cobblestone wall to fight off a Skeleton, which dropped a bow. Distracted by the rare drop, Tybzi rushed in and pinned 8Bit to the wall. Surprised and unable to escape, 8Bit was killed, despite having better gear.
Season 12
- Main article: Cube Ultra Hardcore (Season 12)
In his second season, he was shown to be a bigger threat as he racked in some kills from JWong and Echo. 8Bit and his team were at the top of the pyramid, proving to be one of the tougher opponents. Once his team activated the End Portal, the remaining teams began to rush to the location. Upon entering the End, his team was able to destroy all of the Ender Crystal Towers and managed to take 1/4 of the Ender Dragon's health before Crimson Team entered through the portal. Once Crimson Team entered, 8Bit's team fell one after the other, thus ending their season.
Season 13
- Main article: Cube Ultra Hardcore (Season 13)
In Season 13, 8Bit played a more strategic and quite game. With the additions of the Mumble Plugin and the Truces and Betrayals twist, he was ready to fight. Having founded diamonds early on, he made an enchantment table, while Pat was left out of the loop. 8Bit was ready to strike, spying on Pat for several times. Meeting up with Pat, made a bloodbath as his plans were successful. He used the enchantment table as bait, and eliminated Pat from the game. After killing Pat, he played a more quite game, as he was able to sneak through the forest, without getting unseen. Before he met his timely death, he made a truce to Echo to not target each other, and go after the biggest threat, Grape. The two then went into different directions and 8Bit met with Grape. He tried to fight off the overpowered participant but was unable to beat Grape's skill and gear.
Season 14
In season 14, he was paired with MlgHwnt.
