Etho has a popular Minecraft survival single-player series titled "Etho Plays Minecraft." He is notable for creating practical (and extremely complicated) redstone contraptions (For example the Etho (Ergo) hopper clock and Etho (Ergo) door). Etho (Ergo) has participated in Mindcrack UHC since Season 3, except Seasons 7, 12, 14 through 20, and 21. Etho (Ergo) was the winner of Season 8, having killed six other players.
In season 2 because of the 1.8 Beta Update, he changed his world. Now his Minecraft house was underground. He called it the man cave. The man cave was filled with many redstone creations like farms and contraptions. Most of the contraptions are built in the mancave but bigger ones are built near the man cave. Outside the man cave, he added paths and fences with new redstone builds and decorations and even builds. Minecraft LP Season 2 of Ethos Lab is the most current season of his Let's Play Series.

TerraFirmaCraft
Etho has two seasons of TerraFirmaCraft on his channel, the first one being very successful on his channel and showing the mod's tech tree as he discovered it. The reason why it ended is unclear (Edit: Etho '(Ergo)' recently announced the reason for ending the series in one of his 'Etho Plays Minecraft' Episodes). Season 2 of TerraFirmaCraft only recently began, with a better understanding of the mod. Etho (Ergo) has been able to rapidly progress through it. He is hoping to reach the end of the tech tree again after several updates and changes to TerraFirmaCraft by the mod's developers.

Minecraft Skin
Etho's Minecraft skin is based on the character Kakashi Hatake from the Japanese manga and anime franchise Naruto.

He has never changed his skin.
