Mighty

Leonardo Provazi de Souza † (February 8, 2000 - May 1, 2015 [aged 15]), better known online as Mighty, was a Brazilian gaming YouTuber whose content mainly consisted of videos about EA Dice's Battlefield. Occasionally, he would also make videos on action figure reviews, memes, and vlogs. 
Since Leonardo's passing, his father, Anderson R. Souza, would continue posting videos to keep his son's dream of being a YouTuber and his memory alive. 
==Personal Life==
Leonardo is described by his parents as a "Kind, bright and lovely"https://mighty.com.br/blog/historia/ kid. In a memorial written by his grandfather, he described how Leo’s birth, as well as his presence, brought happiness to his family and friends. 
He was very passionate about his hobbies, especially gaming, superheroeshttps://noticias.uol.com.br/saude/ultimas-noticias/estado/2013/06/17/super-heroi-da-forca-a-paciente-com-cancer.htm, action figures, cinematography, and any media relates to Transformers. Leo would mix all of those passions in old videos filmed with his father, such as Spiderman VS Viloes, which featured his beloved action figures, as well as a plot imagined by Leonardo. 
Leo also wrote the book "Super Velocidade" (Super Speed) when he was 7-8 years oldhttps://www.amazon.com.br/Super-Velocidade-Anderson-Souza-ebook/dp/B0042P54G4. The book was published with the help of his father, who always encouraged his son to cultivate his passions. 
In the same memorial by his grandfather, it is also mentioned how brave Leo was. In the face of adversity he stayed hopeful, and never used his platform to complain about his situation in any way, keeping a resigned attitude despite facing hardships. 
== Content ==
Essentially, the channel was used as a hub to discuss any topic that Leo was passionate about. As mentioned above, Mighty is mostly a gaming channel, which is centered on Battlefield videos. Most of the content would be gameplay with live commentary, often including humorous edits. Both Leo and Anderson would also go on to make videos on different games, such as The Last of Us, Crash Bandicoot, and even Call of Duty. When it comes to vlogging, Mighty's content is more diversified: there are videos on gaming, action figure reviews, and even some content discussing soccer. 
==Death== 
Somewhere in 2013, the channel would undergo a brief hiatus, something not very usual for Leo, who used to post videos frequently. In the video Explicações..., Leo finally reveals that after feeling an awkward pain in his arm for a while, he found out that he had a bone tumor. He asks for prayers that he'll be well soon and promises to resume posting after he's cured. Unfortunately, however, he would pass away on May 1, 2015, https://mighty.com.br/blog/historia/, from complications of bone cancer.
==Legacy==
Leonardo's passing was announced in a video made by Anderson, his father. The news about his death saddened much of the brazilian YouTube community, and many known content creators, such as Whindersson Nunes, left their condolences in the comments of the video. Anderson would go on and continue posting gaming videos to the channel as a way of keeping his son's dream alive. He also decided to raise funds for GRAAChttps://mighty.com.br/blog/doacoes/, an institution that helps children who are battling cancer.
Battlefield 2042 has a small tribute to Leo in the character "Colonel L. Mighty", one of the bots available on multiplayer. In a statement by EA Dice, in which the tribute is announced, Leonardo is described as "the bravest soldier", who "fought the toughest battle"https://twitter.com/ARSDigital/status/1457859466523729921.
==Trivia==
*Despite being known for his Battlefield content, his favorite game is The Last of Us. In a posthumous video celebrating his 18th birthday, Anderson mentions that Leo described it as "the game of his life", presumably meaning it was his favorite. The video includes music from the game for this reason.
