Top World of Warcraft streamer Asmongold says he's thinking about quitting Twitch
One of the biggest streamers in the world right now is Asmongold, and he might be moving on from Twitch altogether.
Asmongold is regularly at the top of Twitch’s charts with over 2.3 million followers and roughly 800K viewers per broadcast. It’s safe to say he’s a force to be reckoned with on the platform, which is why the prospect of him leaving live streaming behind is a big deal.
“If I can’t have fun and I have to constantly watch what I say because people are going to take it and use it against me, I just don’t want to stream anymore,” says Asmongold in a recent Twitch broadcast. “That’s really the truth.”

Asmongold was a popular World of Warcraft content creator for years before branching out to other MMORPGs. In July of this year, he was Twitch’s most viewed male streamer at 14 million viewers, thanks in part largely to his recent escapades in Final Fantasy XIV and his commentary on the recent lawsuit filed against Activision Blizzard by California’s Department of Fair Employment and Housing.
