- Musk has yet to respond to Asmongold's challenge.
Twitch content creator Asmongold has thrown down the gauntlet to Elon Musk, promising to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can provide concrete evidence that he reached level 97 in Path of Exile 2 without assistance. This achievement, which typically demands considerable time and skill, has sparked speculation that Musk might have received help from another experienced player.
Elon Musk is no stranger to sharing his gaming exploits with his followers, often updating them on his latest adventures. However, his recent ejection from Path of Exile 2 due to performing actions too quickly has fueled doubts about his gaming prowess. Musk claimed that his gameplay was so flawless that the game's anti-cheat system mistakenly flagged it as the use of macros—tools designed to automate actions. While this incident underscores Musk's dedication to gaming, it also prompts some players to question whether he truly achieved these feats on his own.
Controversial Twitch streamer Asmongold has openly questioned the legitimacy of Musk's gaming achievements, suggesting that reaching level 97 in Path of Exile 2 might be beyond Musk's personal capabilities. In a bold move, Asmongold offered to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk could substantiate his claims. This challenge is not an exclusivity deal; Asmongold would continue streaming on Twitch concurrently. He further speculated that Musk's motivation might stem from ego, proposing that Musk would garner more respect by being transparent about his gaming accomplishments rather than trying to impress with potentially unearned achievements.
Asmongold's Challenge: A Boost for Twitter Streaming
It remains to be seen whether Musk will take up Asmongold's challenge, but it presents a unique opportunity to expand Twitter's presence in the game streaming market. Asmongold, with over 3 million followers on his primary Twitch channel, could significantly enhance Twitter's streaming ambitions if he follows through with his promise. Musk has previously outlined Twitter's revenue-sharing model, which enables content creators to earn from ad revenue and offers additional features like tipping and paid subscriptions.
It's worth noting that Asmongold has previously commented on Musk's endeavors. In November 2024, he expressed support for Musk's decision to include Twitch in a lawsuit against companies accused of boycotting Twitter.
