Twitch content creator Asmongold has thrown down the gauntlet to Elon Musk, promising to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can substantiate his claim of reaching level 97 in Path of Exile 2. Achieving such a level typically requires significant time and expertise, leading some to speculate that Musk might have had assistance from a skilled player.
Elon Musk, a known gaming enthusiast, regularly shares his gaming experiences with his followers. Recently, he was ejected from Path of Exile 2 due to performing actions too quickly, which led to suspicions of using macros or bots. Musk claims his gameplay was so flawless that the game's anti-cheat system mistakenly flagged it. While this showcases the world's richest man still finding time for gaming, it also casts doubt on whether Musk truly earned these achievements himself.
Controversial Twitch streamer Asmongold has challenged Musk's gaming credentials, doubting that Musk could reach level 97 in Path of Exile 2 unaided. Asmongold's bold offer to stream on Twitter for a year, without exclusivity and alongside his Twitch streams, hinges on Musk providing concrete evidence of his feats. Asmongold suggested that Musk's motivation might be more about ego and that honesty about his gaming skills could enhance his public image.
Asmongold's Challenge: A Boost for Twitter Streaming
It remains to be seen if Musk will take up Asmongold's challenge, but it presents a golden opportunity to expand Twitter's reach into game streaming. Asmongold, with over 3 million followers on Twitch, could significantly bolster Twitter's streaming ambitions if he were to broadcast there. Musk has previously outlined Twitter's revenue-sharing model, which benefits content creators through ad revenue, tipping, and paid subscriptions.
It's worth noting that Asmongold has previously commented on Musk's ventures. In November 2024, he expressed support for Musk's legal action against companies accused of boycotting Twitter, which included Twitch.
