Video content Christiansen created his Maximilian Dood
YouTube channel in 2007, and after being fired from his job as an online video game producer in 2011 began to make videos as a full-time job. His content primarily revolves around fighting games, covering titles from fighting game series such as
Street Fighter,
Mortal Kombat,
Tekken In January 2017, his video on
Injustice 2 received coverage for showcasing the improvements made to the character models on the game from its initial footage in 2016, detailing the flaws on character faces such as that of
Supergirl and
Wonder Woman and speculating that
NetherRealm Studios had polished the game before its initial release. Besides fighting games, Christiansen has made videos on other video games such as showcasing a
Bayonetta 2 easter egg involving a reference to the
Nintendo series
Star Fox, which received coverage from
Eurogamer in 2014. Christiansen has also made a sizeable amount of content surrounding his favorite game of all time,
Final Fantasy VII, and its related titles from the
Compilation of Final Fantasy VII and the
Final Fantasy VII Remake project. Following the closure of
Machinima in 2019, Christiansen was dropped from the
multi-channel network due to his
Assist Me and
Boss Rage videos receiving copyright claims for their usage of music.
FGC activities As a prominent member of the
fighting game community (FGC), Christiansen is known for organizing grassroots fighting game online tournaments alongside campaigning for the revival of several fighting games. In August 2021, Christiansen created a social media campaign advocating for a rerelease of the 2000 fighting game
Marvel vs. Capcom 2, which had been delisted from multiple online stores due to licensing issues between
Marvel and Capcom; initially slated to make a comeback in
Evo 2020, the game ultimately did not make an appearance due to the cancellation of the event. Christiansen's campaign led to #FREEMVC2
trending on
Twitter and Mike Mika, the studio head for
Digital Eclipse, expressing interest in re-releasing the game.
Marvel vs. Capcom 2 was eventually re-released as part of
Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics in 2024, with Christiansen present in at least one promotional video for the collection. In June 2019, two years prior to his
Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 campaign, he had created a
Killer Instinct campaign to revive the series which also trended on Twitter. In January 2021, Christiansen hosted a
Killer Instinct tournament which he streamed on Twitch under a partnership with Twitch Rivals. In addition to being a fan of the series, he had previously worked with developer
Iron Galaxy to create promotional material and character trailers for the
reboot. The stream reached over 41,000 concurrent viewers.{{cite web|url=https://dotesports.com/fgc/news/killer-instinct-lives-breaks-40000-viewers|title=Killer Instinct Lives breaks 40,000 viewers == Other works ==
