Summary
- Asmongold challenged Elon Musk to prove his Path of Exile 2 level 97 achievement, offering a year of Twitter streaming in exchange for verifiable evidence.
- Musk's recent ban from Path of Exile 2 for rapid actions fueled speculation about potential macro or bot use.
- Musk has yet to respond to Asmongold's challenge.
Twitch streamer Asmongold publicly questioned Elon Musk's claimed level 97 achievement in Path of Exile 2, an accomplishment typically requiring significant time and skill. This skepticism arose after Musk was banned from the game for performing actions too quickly, leading to accusations of macro or bot usage.
Musk, a known video game enthusiast, has frequently shared his gaming progress with his followers. However, his expulsion from Path of Exile 2 raised doubts about the legitimacy of his reported achievements.
Asmongold, a prominent and controversial Twitch streamer, directly challenged Musk's credibility, suggesting the level 97 claim was improbable without external assistance. He offered to stream on Twitter for a full year—concurrently with his Twitch streams—if Musk could provide irrefutable proof of his accomplishment. Asmongold hinted that Musk's actions might stem from ego, suggesting honesty would be more beneficial than attempting to impress others with potentially inflated achievements.
Asmongold's Challenge: A Potential Boost for Twitter Streaming
Musk's response to Asmongold's challenge remains pending. However, accepting the challenge presents a significant opportunity for Musk to expand Twitter's reach into the gaming streaming market. Asmongold's substantial following (over 3 million on Twitch) could significantly boost Twitter's streaming platform if he were to fulfill his promise. This aligns with Musk's previously announced plans for Twitter's revenue-sharing model, which includes features like ad revenue sharing, tipping, and paid subscriptions for content creators.
It's noteworthy that Asmongold has previously commented on Musk, notably expressing support for Musk's November 2024 lawsuit against companies allegedly boycotting Twitter.
