Twitch CEO Excited About xQc Kick Deal

During a recent interview with Jake Lucky, Twitch CEO Dan Clancy said,

“If you ask me about Felix, I’d say I’m excited for Felix. If you look at the situation he is in. He is getting to do stuff there that you know in our policies we are not letting him do.

Fans of the popular show “The Simpsons” claim that the show predicted the recent Oceangate submarine gone missing situation years ago.

The Simpsons is a 90 satirical TV show that depicts the American life of a family. In the past, fans claimed that the show predicted many events happening in our timeline. Some of the predictions were so accurate that people started believing that the show’s creators were time travelers.

And now fans of the show are claiming that The Simpsons predicted the recent Oceangate Titanic Submarine going missing. Recently 5 people booked a submarine called Titan made by the company Oceangate. Their main mission was to visit the Titanic ship’s wreckage and capture footage and witness it for themselves.

But on their way to the Titanic wreckage, the sub went missing. At the moment several search parties are looking for the missing submarine which only has a few hours of Oxygen left.

Fans Claim The Simpsons Predicted the Submarine Situation Years Ago

The Simpsons aired an episode back in 2006. The episode shows Homer and his dad going to a wreck to find treasures. At one point the submarine gets stuck in a wreckage and starts running out of Oxygen. The show however ended with Homer and his father in a hospital bed surrounded by his family after being in a coma for three days.

Fans of the show claim that The Simpsons was the first media that showed a submarine going missing. Some of the fans said,

“Simpsons was the first time in history a submarine sinking was shown in media. This isn’t a coincidence”.

“I do not know what surprises them of the lost submarine in the Atlantic that went down to see the remains of the Titanic, the Simpsons had already warned us”.

xQc 2-year $100M Kick deal

The news about the xQc Multimillion-dollar deal comes from Jake Lucky on Twitter. In a recent Twitter post, Jake wrote,

“Twitch streamer xQc has signed a record breaking $100 million, 2 year non exclusive deal with Kick… Per @Kellen_Browning WTF”

So, According to Jake Lucky’s Tweet, xQc’s Kick Deal originally comes from Kelen Browning.

xQc’s Kick deal is nonexclusive, meaning he can still stream on other platforms even after signing up to Kick. But, despite the non-exclusivity, xQc will probably stream more on Kick than Twitch.

The news about xQc’s Kick deal had a lot of positive impact on Kick itself. According to some sources, apparently, more than 650,000 people signed up for Kick accounts after hearing about xQc’s Kick Deal.

Viewer Set justfoxii’s F-Type on Fire

justfoxii released a video sharing the whole incident. According to her, this happened two weeks before, when she was on vacation far away from home. She received a call from her mother, who was crying at the moment, and told her that someone had set her car on fire.

Thankfully, she had a security camera set outside her house that recorded the incident from the beginning. An unknown individual approached her car and put a brick on top of the car’s hood. He put a bucket on top of the brick, which seemed to have some sort of flammable in it, and set it on fire. The individual casually walked away after setting up the fire.

The next cut of the video showed that the front of the car was on fire. Fortunately, the firefighters responded quickly and extinguished the fire, which also spread to the fence of her house. Understandably, the incident has left all the family members “traumatized.”

The person who caused the fire was reportedly arrested. The motivation behind his actions hasn’t yet been disclosed. The only information justfoxii shared with her audience is that the individual was a viewer, and he drove 700 miles to do it. Thankfully, everyone in her family is safe, and justfoxii wishes to return to regular streaming after she feels motivated enough.

NICKMERCS operator bundle has been removed from Warzone 2.0 store following the creator’s controversial comment regarding Pride month.

Call of Duty Warzone became one of the biggest BRs worldwide following its release in 2020. The game has garnered a wider pool of audience and players, leading to many prominent content creators rising to the top.

NICKMERCS is one of the most prominent Warzone streamers. Following the game’s release, NICKMERCS has become the face of the game. His popularity led to IW introducing an operator bundle with a NICKMERCS operator along with his own customized blueprints and accessories.

However, a recent controversy following his comment about Pride month resulted in Activision taking the bundle out of Warzone 2.0.

NICKMERCS Operator Bundle Gets Removed from Warzone 2.0

The controversy started after Nickmercs commented on a post regarding pro-LGBT demonstrations outside Glendale school. The demonstration was in support of the school board recognizing Pride Month.

Nick replied to the post with a comment stating they should “leave little children alone.” The following comment sparked a controversy that NICKMERCS was not an LGBT ally, leaving many people furious.

After the comment flared controversy, Activision went on to remove the bundle from the Warzone 2.0 and MW2 in-game store. According to Activision, they have removed the bundle to show solidarity with their employees and community to celebrate pride month.

Nick’s comment left the community divided. While many content creators do not support Nick’s statement, creators like Dr Disrespect and Cloakzy have uninstalled Warzone 2.0 to show their support for NICKMERCS. Furthermore, Nick’s fans have shown their support for the content creator’s statement by creating their own hashtags.

While people are saying that they should live and let live, many are saying that people can have their own opinions that might not coincide with the “mainstream woke culture.” Nick has not made any further statement regarding his statement about the children and pride month.

His house has been raided by police multiple times, and xQc is fed up.

Recently during his Livestream xQc was talking about getting an unknown place and staying there for some time.

xQc Will Move to an Unknown Place

xQc just wants to sit at his computer and do the stuff he likes. He is tired of all the drama and police coming to his house frequently. So he wants to get a place that’s unknown and stay there for some time.

During the June 10th Livestream xQc said,

“I came here to just sit at the computer and do this dumb shit, and that’s it. And then it’s like this and that and this and that. And I’m like, yoo, I came here to f**king play the game and look at pixels like, what the fuck is happening. Like Why? And it’s like, ok, well, I guess we’ll move again, and it’s probably gonna blow up again. F**king do it again. I think the good solution would be to set up like a good encampment, like a good bunker that’s like unknown. And that’s what I think I had here. but I guess I’ll camp for, like, at least a week or more and come back.”

Twitch streamer cArn_ becomes the first person in the world to achieve level 100 in Diablo 4 Hardcore mode.

Diablo 4 is a newly released Action-RPG game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. It is the 4th main installment in the Diablo series. Blizzard initially announced Diablo 4 back in 2019 at Blizzcon. Finally, after 4 years, it has released in early access.

After the early access came out, the official Diablo Twitter account made an announcement. To mark the release of Diablo 4 and to immortalize the top players, diablo did something different. The announcement says that the first 1000 players to reach level 100 on Diablo 4 hardcore mode will have their username permanently etched into a statue of Lilith.

The full announcement,

“Glory awaits

The first 1000 players to reach level 100 on hardcore mode & tweet proof using #Diablo4Hardcore + your http://Battle.Net ID will have their username permanently etched into a statue of Lilith. Restrictions apply: http://blizz.ly/4294DLg

And thus signaling the start of a race to reach level 100 in Diablo 4 hardcore mode.

Diablo 4 Level 100 Hardcore

After the announcement, players all over the world started gunning for a chance to have their usernames marked in the game forever. And not even a day has passed, and a die-hard Diablo 4 fan has already achieved the feat.

Twitch streamer cArn_ was the one to win the Diablo 4 hardcore level 100 race. Fans and followers of cArn_ watched the whole journey on his Twitch channel. The feat is considered impressive because in hardcore mode, if the character dies, then the run is over. So cArn_ managed to hit level 100 without dying a single time and also became the first ever in the world.

At the time of reaching level 100 in hardcore mode, cArn_ was streaming on Twitch, and his reaction to it was one of joy and happiness. cArn_ however received some criticism for his run because he used some dungeon exploits that allowed him to earn more xp.

Now it’s up to Blizzard to decide if his run with the exploits is viable for the achievement or not.
