Amouranth claims xQc criticized hot tub meta to distract from gambling streams Twitch\/xQc\/AmouranthTwitch star Kaitlyn \u2018Amouranth\u2019 Siragusa has suggested French-Canadian streaming sensation Felix \u2018xQx\u2019 Lengyel was only critical of the hot tub meta because it distracted from his own controversy on the platform. Hot tub, ASMR ear-licking and gambling streams have all been criticized in the past year, albeit for different reasons. While the likes of Indiefoxx, Amouranth and xoAeriel were seeing explosive growth in hot tubs, xQc and Trainwrecks were stirring a pot of their own by playing slots with tons of money on the line. As viewers and influencers hit out at the hot tub meta for sexualizing Twitch, the gambling streams continued, which, according to Amouranth is exactly what xQc wanted and why he vocally opposed the content. Amouranth took aim at xQc\u2019s hot tub stream criticism, explaining how he benefited from all the controversy that it caused. Imagine a trading places-like episode where I\u2019m Doing slots and he\u2019s in a tub \ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02 pic.twitter.com\/Nq1zmmVb51\u2014 Kaitlyn (@wildkait) June 30, 2021 \u201cThe reason xQc liked ripping on hot tubs was because it took attention away from the gamba stuff,\u201d she said with a laughing emoji face. \u201cI took one for the team. You know glass houses and such.\u201d Amouranth actually had her entire channel demonetized by Twitch during the hot tub meta due to advertiser concerns. Eventually, ads were reinstated, but only after Twitch created a new category strictly for beaches, pools and hot tub broadcasts. The cosplayer and model went on to hint that she too might be getting involved in gambling streams as well at some point. \u201cImagine a trading places-like episode where I\u2019m doing slots and he\u2019s in a tub,\u201d she joked in a reply to her tweet. When a viewer suggested someone start doing gambling streams while in a hot tub, she replied, \u201cHey, that\u2019s the top secret meta.\u201d xQc has since announced he\u2019s done with gambling streams after getting nearly 2000 people to use his referral link to join a gambling site. The former Overwatch League pro also said that his own addiction concerns were a factor in stopping the streams. As such, there is a vacancy in Twitch\u2019s gambling stream department, and Amouranth could very well have her eyes set on it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
