Tensions continue to simmer between Spanish streamer Ibai Llanos, who on Saturday broke the world record for most concurrent live viewers on Twitch with his annual boxing event, and Twitch. After slamming the platform on Saturday for outages during La Velada del Año III, which drew in 3.4 million viewers, the streamer says many experts have told him that they believe Twitch capped the number of viewers on his stream—an allegation that Twitch firmly denies. How Does Gerard Pique’s New Twitch Indoor Soccer League Work?“They’ve told me that Twitch capped a part of my viewers, that more people couldn’t access my stream, and that there’s a reason behind that if you look at the data from Twitch Tracker, which shows viewers going up and down,” Ibai said in a stream on Sunday, referring to messages he’s received from people who claim to be experts and his own video editor. “I have no fucking idea if it’s true, but I’ve gotten so many messages from people saying, ‘Ibai, they robbed you.’” Twitch told Gizmodo in an email on Tuesday morning that the claims about capping viewers to La Velada del Año III, a streamer vs. streamer boxing match which translates to

A Twitch streamer has revealed she can make up to $15,000 (£11,600) by live streaming herself sleeping. American Internet celebrity, gamer, and OnlyFans model Amouranth disclosed her huge profit while discussing her career on The Iced Coffee Hour podcast with hosts Graham Stephan and Jack Selby. Otherwise known as Kaitlyn Siragusa, the 29-year-old says she can make between $10,000 and $15,000 from her sleep streams. While she does make plenty of money with her live streams on the platform, she admits that the majority of it comes from her OnlyFans page. The female content creator is among the biggest on Twitch, with a whopping 6.4 million followers.

AEW threw an unexpected wrench in MJF’s plan when they made Adam Cole his tag team partner. After a bit of frustration, it seems that he is going all in to form an alliance with Cole. Adam Cole is not just an AEW star, because he is also a popular Twitch streamer. He tries to keep those worlds separate, but things did not work out for him in that respect recently. During a recent live stream, MJF called in to annoy Adam Cole. It was apparent that Adam Cole didn’t want MJF on his stream, because he made a point to say that he keeps his two lives away from each other. MJF proceeded to ask if they could work on a tag team clothesline move. After all, a good double clothesline could help them out in their immediate future. Mr. Bay Bay really didn’t want to talk about that on his stream. Then MJF asked Adam Cole if he was playing video games like a loser, hoping that wasn’t the case. This is when Adam Cole ended MJF’s time on the stream by saying that he had to go. You can check out the full clip below. We will

World of Warcraft needs a complete, Realm Reborn-style reset in the style of rival MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, one of its top Twitch streamers says. Zack, best known as ‘Asmongold,’ has been one of the most famous faces in the WoW scene for many years, but says that the amount of bloat and complexity in modern World of Warcraft is off-putting to veterans such as himself as well as potential new players. “With WoW, I’ve kinda just been taking a break,” the longtime YouTuber and Twitch streamer says, “and it’s not like I hate WoW – I don’t want anybody thinking I hate WoW.” However, he says he hasn’t really felt much reason to play it of late. He points to several potential issues, including the sheer volume of stuff that players have obtained over the years, and an increase in the complexity of fight mechanics. It’s certainly true that modern boss fights can feel like an ongoing arms race between people making the best WoW addons to help you follow and solve mechanics, and the game’s designers attempting to make something that existing tools aren’t able to automatically parse. This has led to situations where players can end up

SSSniperwolf and Jacksfilms have found themselves embroiled in a debate over their YouTube channels and the type of content that they both produce. Notable Youtube personality and Twitch streamer SSSniperwolf, real name Alia, has found herself caught in a controversy with another content creator, John, that goes by the moniker Jacksfilms. SSSniperwolf has garnered over 33 million subscribers on YouTube, while Jacksfilms is nearly at 5 million. Both have been on the platform for several years at this point, though it doesn't appear that the two get along. Recent interactions with one another on social media have caught the attention of not only both their fan bases, but the wider internet as well. Interestingly enough, the feud between the two is not recent and actually dates back to at least October 2022. Controversy among content creators is not a new concept, but for this pair, it doesn't seem like the debate will be dying anytime soon. SSSniperwolf and Jacksfilms Refuse to Back Down SSSniperwolf first rose to prominence for playing games such as Call of Duty. Since starting her YouTube in 2013, she's been involved in her fair share of controversy. For example, when she won "Favorite Gamer" in Nickelodeon's

The Steam page for Only Up!, the latest indie hit to take Twitch by storm, has now been reinstated following a temporary take-down amid recent copyright controversies. Although the exact reason for its previous removal remains unknown at the time of writing, some fans are speculating that its return is due to the fact that developer SCKR Games reportedly swapped out a stolen asset that wasn’t meant for commercial use. According to a Reddit comment from a user named LuntiX, the game was apparently updated in order to alter a specific portion of the game. The section in question previously contained a depiction of a “giant girl,” which, as pointed out by Kotaku, original appeared on the Sketchfab website. Following the update, however, the alleged stolen asset has now been replaced by a statue of Atlas holding a spinning globe aloft, thereby allowing the developer to re-list Only Up! on Steam. Now, even though the indie hit has returned to both Valve’s platform and Twitch, it seems that Only Up! has become notorious in some circles as fans are claiming that it continues to use assets from other popular franchises, which includes some of the music created by Nintendo and
