FaZe Temperrr

Thomas Oliveira, known as FaZe Temperrr or iiTeMpeR, is a Brazilian-American YouTube star, esports entrepreneur, and influencer boxer. He co-founded FaZe Clan in 2010 at age 16, growing it from a small Call of Duty trick-shotting crew into a global esports and lifestyle brand. His personal YouTube channel iiTeMpeR has over 1 million subscribers, and his videos regularly pull in millions of views. In 2022, he stepped into the boxing ring, fighting opponents like KSI and Slim Albaher. As of 2026, he is engaged to Emma Smith and they have one child together. [edit]

Oliveira was born on August 25, 1993, in Brazil and moved to New York with his family as a child. Growing up, he was hooked on Call of Duty, spending hours perfecting trick shots and montages. In 2010, at just 16, he teamed up with a group of online friends, including ClipZ, Timid, and Resistance, to form FaZe Clan. The FaZeClan YouTube channel was created on May 30, 2010. The early days were scrappy: they shared clips on YouTube and built a community around sniping and editing. In 2014, he and COO Richard "Banks" Bengtson created the first FaZe shared home in Plainview, New York, a move that let them produce lifestyle content alongside gaming videos and turned the clan into a content powerhouse. By early 2016, the FaZeClan channel had surpassed 3.6 million subscribers. [edit]

FaZe Clan exploded in the mid-2010s as one of the first esports organizations to blend competitive gaming with influencer culture. Oliveira's personal channel iiTeMpeR hit 1 million subs in January 2017. He dropped the video "THIS Is Why He Joined FaZe..." in April 2019, which pulled in over 2.9 million views. In 2021, he started boxing training and made his pro debut on March 5, 2022, winning by unanimous decision under Showstar Boxing. He fought Slim Albaher on August 27, 2022, losing by TKO, and KSI in 2023. After 15 years, he left FaZe Clan in 2025. On June 6, 2026, he fought MckyTV under Fame Fighting in Leverkusen, Germany, in an event headlined by Chase DeMoor vs. Aleks Petrovic. He is ranked #10 on Ranker's "The Best FaZe Clan Members" list. [edit]

Oliveira is seen as a pioneer in esports, one of the first to turn a gaming clan into a full-fledged brand. Fans respect his longevity and his willingness to evolve, from trick-shotting to CEO to boxer. His public persona is grounded: he posts fight updates, training clips, and personal reflections on X/Twitter, often thanking fans for support. Notable quotes include "Grateful for the journey. Back to the lab soon. Appreciate all the love." (January 2023) and "Not the result we wanted but that's the fight game. I learned a lot from this one." (August 2022). The FaZe Clan fanbase, known as the FaZe Family, has followed his journey closely. He doesn't have a distinct personal fandom name, but within the community he's recognized as the guy who built the house. [edit]

FaZe Temperrr's fanbase is woven into the fabric of FaZe Clan's massive following, and there's no formal name for his individual fans, they're simply FaZe fans or followers of his personal journey. His Instagram, with about 1.3 million followers, and his YouTube channel, which traces his path from high school graduation in 2012 to co-founding FaZe, serve as the primary connection points. There are no dedicated fan-run accounts, coordinated streaming parties, or structured campaigns tied specifically to him; instead, his community engages through the larger FaZe ecosystem. His longevity, joining in 2010 and creating the iconic FaZe logo, grants him a veteran status that commands respect, even if it hasn't spawned a distinct, self-identified fan group. Fans have no documented rituals or inside jokes unique to him, and there are no records of fan-organized projects like billboards or charity drives. His contributions to fans come through content and his role in building FaZe Clan, plus unfiltered interviews like the two-hour conversation with FaZe Apex, which offers deep access to his story. His boxing career has also provided new content, though it draws a broader crossover audience rather than a dedicated Temperrr fan base.

As of August 2026, iFANN's Global Fame Engine has evaluated FaZe Temperrr, but he does not currently hold a placement in the published rankings, neither in the Global Top 1,000 nor any Top-100 scope list. His fame is recognized, but no numeric rank or score is assigned.[edit]

FaZe Temperrr's personal YouTube channel is named iiTeMpeR, with the stylized spelling. In March 2020, he posted a parody of TLC's My Strange Addiction that showed his comedic side. He was only 16 when he co-founded FaZe Clan. He famously fought KSI in 2023, one of the biggest influencer boxing matches that year. His X/Twitter handle @Temperrr has been active since June 2010, making it one of the older accounts in the gaming space. He posted "I gave that boy a boxing lesson" on X after his debut win in March 2022.

One of his most retold moments is the 30-second knockout of Overtflow at Misfits Boxing 3 on November 19, 2022, a one-punch finish that went viral and marked his transition from esports to combat sports. His fight against KSI on January 14, 2023, reportedly sold 300,000 pay-per-view buys, cementing its legendary status. Another story fans still tell is his "11 Years Later" post, referencing his tenure as the longest-standing FaZe member, having joined in 2010 and created the iconic logo. His origin story, graduating from Haverhill High School in 2012 and building FaZe from the ground up, remains a cornerstone of his personal mythology.[edit]

Oliveira was born in Brazil and moved to the United States with his family during childhood, settling in New York. He posted a photo with his mother on Instagram in June 2020, though he keeps most family details private. As of 2026, he is engaged to Emma Smith, and they welcomed their first child in November 2023. The family lives together, but Oliveira has not shared their exact location or many details about his home life. [edit]

Oliveira co-founded FaZe Clan with early members ClipZ, Timid, and Resistance. He worked closely with COO Richard "Banks" Bengtson to create the FaZe shared home. His boxing opponents include KSI, Slim Albaher, and MckyTV. He has collaborated with fellow FaZe members like Austin "Pamaj" Pamajewon and FaZe Rug. [edit]

Oliveira has kept his romantic life relatively private. In 2023, he got engaged to Emma Smith. The couple welcomed their first child together in November 2023. As of 2026, they remain engaged and are raising their child. No other public relationships have been documented. [edit]

As of 2026, iFANN's editorial analysis estimates FaZe Temperrr's net worth at $10 million. His primary source of wealth comes from his ownership stake in FaZe Clan, which he co-founded and led as CEO for 15 years. During its peak, FaZe Clan was valued at hundreds of millions, and Oliveira's stake was a significant asset. Additional income streams include ad revenue from his YouTube channel iiTeMpeR, which has over 1 million subscribers, and earnings from influencer boxing matches, including bouts against KSI, Slim Albaher, and MckyTV. He also likely earns from brand endorsements and merchandise tied to his personal brand. No specific dollar figures from credible outlets were found in the current search results.[edit]
