Streaming sensation Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel returned from TwitchCon to share news of a meeting content creators had with Twitch staff and how Tyler1 asked a strange question.
TwitchCon has come and gone leaving attendees much to remember with horrific bone-breaking foam falls and stalker incidents, just to name a few.
During the convention, Twitch streamers had the opportunity to meet with some of the platform’s higher-ups and voice their concerns about the site moving forward.
According to xQc, while many were worried about the ads on the platform, Tyler1 used this as an opportunity to push the opposite.
xQc says Tyler1 asked for more announcements on Twitch
During a streamthe former Overwatch League pro explained how everyone in the room was asking for fewer ads, wanting the site to do something about the influx of them.
As this was going on, Tyler1 raised his hand and joked with the Twitch CEO, “Brother, can we get a five minute ad button please?”
xQc went on to recall the conversation with Tyler1 explaining, “Three minutes is fine, but I need five ones. I don’t mind. People get like 40 hours of free content, watch the damn ads, bitch.”
As Tyler joked, Twitch announcements have been a very controversial topic in the community with big names like Asmongold and Valkyrae claiming that they were “killing” the streaming platform.
This also comes as Twitch plans to discontinue a 70/30 revenue split for certain streamers, instead opting for a universal 50/50 split citing operating costs to keep the site running.
The backlash even resulted in IRL streamer JakeNBake calling Twitch president Dan Clancy “out of touch” after meeting with him to discuss the controversial revenue split change.
In any case, at least Tyler1 can find humor in the whole situation, but let’s hope Twitch doesn’t take his joke too seriously and actually implements another hype button.
