Twitch content creator Asmongold has thrown down the gauntlet to Elon Musk, offering to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can provide solid evidence of reaching level 97 in Path of Exile 2. This achievement, which typically requires a significant amount of time and expertise, has led some to speculate that Musk may have received assistance from another skilled player.

Elon Musk, known for his love of video games, frequently shares updates about his gaming endeavors with his followers. Recently, he was ejected from Path of Exile 2 after executing too many actions in quick succession. Musk claimed that his gameplay was so flawless that the game's anti-cheat system mistakenly flagged it as using macros, tools designed to automate actions. While this incident highlights Musk's dedication to gaming despite his busy schedule, it has also sparked doubts among some players about the authenticity of his gaming achievements.

Controversial Twitch streamer Asmongold has openly questioned Musk's gaming credentials, suggesting that reaching level 97 in Path of Exile 2 might be beyond Musk's personal capabilities. Asmongold's challenge is not an exclusivity agreement; he would continue streaming on Twitch simultaneously. He also suggested that Musk's motivation might be driven by ego, and that honesty about his gaming achievements could make him more likable to his audience.

Asmongold's Challenge Offers Musk a Chance to Boost 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 reach into game streaming. Asmongold, with over 3 million followers on his primary Twitch channel, could significantly boost Twitter's streaming platform if he follows through with his offer. Previously, Musk outlined Twitter's revenue-sharing model, which enables content creators to earn from ad revenue and offers features like tipping and paid subscriptions.

It's worth noting that Asmongold has previously commented on Musk and his companies. In November 2024, Asmongold expressed support for Musk's decision to include Twitch in a lawsuit against companies accused of boycotting Twitter.
