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 excessively rapid actions fueled speculation about potential macro or bot use.
- Musk has yet to respond to Asmongold's challenge.
Popular Twitch streamer Asmongold publicly questioned Elon Musk's claim of reaching level 97 in Path of Exile 2, an accomplishment generally requiring significant skill and playtime. This skepticism stemmed from Musk's recent expulsion from the game due to an unusually high action-per-second rate, raising suspicions of automated gameplay.
Musk, a known video game enthusiast, maintains a public profile of his gaming exploits. However, his ban sparked debate regarding the authenticity of his reported achievements. Asmongold, known for his outspoken nature, offered a unique proposition: a year of simultaneous Twitch and Twitter streaming if Musk could provide irrefutable proof of legitimately attaining level 97. Asmongold hinted that Musk's actions might be driven by ego, suggesting honesty would garner more respect than fabricated accomplishments.
Asmongold's Challenge: A Potential Boost for Twitter Streaming
Musk's response to Asmongold's challenge remains pending; however, accepting it presents a significant opportunity to expand Twitter's presence in the gaming streaming market. Asmongold's substantial Twitch following (over 3 million) could significantly boost Twitter's viewership if he were to stream on the platform. This aligns with Musk's previously announced plans for Twitter's revenue-sharing model, which includes features designed to incentivize content creators.
It's notable that this isn't Asmongold's first public interaction with Musk. In November 2024, Asmongold publicly supported Musk's lawsuit against companies allegedly boycotting Twitter.
