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.
Popular Twitch streamer Asmongold issued a public challenge to Elon Musk, questioning the legitimacy of Musk's claimed level 97 achievement in Path of Exile 2. This high level, requiring significant time and skill, prompted skepticism regarding Musk's solo accomplishment.
Musk, a known gamer, recently faced a ban from Path of Exile 2 due to an unusually high action-per-second rate, leading to accusations of macro usage. While demonstrating his gaming engagement, this incident further fueled doubts about the authenticity of his reported achievements.
Asmongold, known for his outspoken nature, directly challenged Musk's claim. He offered to stream on Twitter for a full year—concurrently with his Twitch streams—if Musk could provide irrefutable proof of legitimately reaching level 97. Asmongold hinted the challenge might expose Musk's 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 the offer presents a significant opportunity to expand Twitter's presence in the gaming streaming market. Asmongold's massive Twitch following (over 3 million) could significantly increase Twitter's viewership if he were to stream there. This aligns with Musk's previously announced plans to incorporate a revenue-sharing model for streamers on Twitter, including features like tipping and subscriptions.
It's notable that Asmongold has previously engaged with Musk publicly. In November 2024, he publicly supported Musk's lawsuit against companies allegedly boycotting Twitter.
