“Frigiel” meme: meaning, origin and rare card

What does the “Frigiel” meme mean?

Saying “Tout simplement Frigiel” invokes a familiar YouTube figure tied to the childhood and teenage years of many Minecraft players. The name brings back survival series, team adventures and the nostalgia of the 2010s. People use it to share a common memory, to tease their younger tastes or to answer “who watched that?” with just a name. It works as a wink between fans, with no further explanation needed.

Where does the “Frigiel” meme come from?

Frigiel, whose real name is Alexandre Israel, was born in Montpellier on August 23, 1994. A passionate gamer since childhood, he began on YouTube around 2010-2011 and created his channel in 2011. He joined the Coop Team, a collective of Minecraft creators. In 2016 he released his first novel, Frigiel et Fluffy: Le retour de l’Ender Dragon, co-written with Nicolas Digard, and the novel series ran through 2025. In 2020 he launched a second channel, Le sachiez-vous ?. He had about 1.98 million YouTube subscribers in December 2025. He also co-founded PixelShirt and EpiCube.

Your first pack is free and needs no account. After that a new free pack lands every 10 minutes, up to 3 waiting for you. You can also buy the card with MemeCoins on the market, bid for it at auction, or trade it — and a double recycles into 10 MemeCoins.

The reprint of the “Frigiel” card

The “Frigiel” card was reprinted as Epic (No. 4,859). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was rare. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.

Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.

MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
