Who Is RezendeEvil?

RezendeEvil -- Pedro de Rezende -- is the Brazilian gaming creator from Sao Paulo who built 35 million YouTube subscribers through Minecraft, horror gaming, and challenge content that made him one of Brazil's most-followed gaming creators and the dominant figure in the Brazilian Minecraft YouTube ecosystem through its commercial peak in the early 2010s. His subscriber count -- placing him among the 50 most-subscribed Brazilian channels -- was built before Brazil's gaming creator market reached the saturation that younger creators entering the category encounter today, giving him the incumbency advantage that first-movers in content categories retain because the audience that grows up with a creator's content develops parasocial investment that newcomers cannot replicate through equivalent content quality alone.^[1]

His marriage to fellow Brazilian YouTuber Ju Rezende -- and their joint content creation -- demonstrates the creator-couple economics that the Brazilian YouTube ecosystem has produced at scale: two creators with overlapping audiences whose combined following exceeds either individual's count, whose relationship content generates engagement premiums over gaming-only content, and whose co-produced content can be distributed across both channels to reach larger total audiences per upload than either channel achieves independently.

Early Life & Sao Paulo Gaming Culture

Pedro de Rezende was born on November 6, 1993, in Sao Paulo -- Brazil's largest city and the center of its technology and gaming industry, home to the BGS (Brasil Game Show, one of Latin America's largest gaming conventions) and a gaming culture with the same intensity and commercial scale as North American and European gaming markets. He began his YouTube channel in 2012, entering Minecraft content creation at the same moment that the game was transitioning from indie curiosity to global youth-culture phenomenon -- the optimal timing for a Brazilian creator who understood the game and could produce Portuguese-language content for a domestic market that English-language Minecraft YouTube did not serve.^[2]

His channel name "RezendeEvil" -- combining his surname with the "evil" gaming persona marker common in the horror gaming content he subsequently developed -- positioned him in the gaming content niche where young Brazilian male audiences' appetite for horror and survival content was clearest: the genre's combination of genuine tension and comedic audience reaction generated the watch-time metrics that early YouTube's algorithm rewarded above pure entertainment content.

Minecraft, Horror Gaming & the Brazilian YouTube Gaming Peak

The 2013-2016 period of RezendeEvil's growth coincided with Minecraft's global commercial peak and the simultaneous expansion of Brazilian internet infrastructure that made YouTube streaming consumption viable for the mass Brazilian youth market rather than only urban middle-class viewers. His channel's audience demographics -- primarily Brazilian males aged 12-24 -- are the demographic that the gaming industry's primary revenue categories (gaming hardware, titles, microtransactions, energy drinks, and snack foods) most actively target, giving him the brand deal categories with the highest CPM rates in the Brazilian creator market.^[3]

Brand Deals & Brazilian Gaming Creator Economics

RezendeEvil's estimated YouTube/Instagram post rate is $100,000--$200,000 per placement, reflecting 35 million YouTube subscribers in Brazil's 14-28 male demographic -- the segment that gaming hardware brands (ASUS ROG, Razer, Corsair), gaming peripheral companies, energy drinks (Monster, Red Bull), and snack brands access at the highest CPM rates in the Brazilian creator market. His co-content with Ju Rezende extends his demographic reach to female gaming audiences and couple-content audiences that his solo gaming channel does not reach organically.

Related Creators

Authentic Games's Minecraft content and RezendeEvil's Minecraft and horror content represent the two pillars of Brazilian YouTube's Minecraft era: Marcos Castro building Brazil's largest dedicated Minecraft channel, Pedro de Rezende building the horror-gaming hybrid format that expanded the Minecraft audience's engagement beyond pure gameplay. Both demonstrate that the Brazilian YouTube gaming market generates subscriber counts competitive with North American creators despite a smaller addressable market in absolute terms, reflecting gaming's disproportionate cultural significance in Brazil's youth entertainment landscape. Whindersson Nunes's comedy audience and RezendeEvil's gaming audience together constitute the two largest male YouTube followings in Brazil outside of music -- both reaching 35-43 million subscribers through content that serves the same 16-28 Brazilian male demographic from different content categories.
