CSGO star s1mple slams Twitch & asks to cancel partnership after ban CSGO legend Oleksandr \u2018s1mple\u2019 Kostyliev has blasted Twitch, calling it a \u201cterrible platform\u201d as he asked to cancel his partnership following another ban on November 28. The Counter-Strike: Global Offensive star is considered to be one of the best players of all time, and many fans regularly tune in to his Twitch streams to see some of his stunning gameplay. However, that is no longer possible as his channel received another suspension from Twitch, leaving the Na`Vi star frustrated. This is not his first ban on the platform, as he was banned in August 2019 for aiming a homophobic slur at one of his teammates. During his previous ban, s1mple labeled Twitch a \u201cjoke\u201d as he felt the ban wasn\u2019t deserved since he was joking with his friend. Regardless, he returned to the platform and continued to dominate the CSGO section. Once again, he has been banned and he believes it is a misunderstanding, stating that the platform is \u201cstupid\u201d for trying to put different meanings on words in different contexts. Some fans have alleged that his complaint stems from his use of a Russian homophobic slur, which they say can also be used as a way to call someone obnoxious or stupid. \u201cI\u2019m tired of streaming on a terrible platform that is always choosing [the wrong] meaning of words,\u201d said s1mple. \u201cIf you ban me for [this] then the rules should be the same for other streamers as well.\u201d Another ban, stupid twitch doesn\u2019t understand the different meanings of the same word in different contexts I\u2019m tired of streaming on a terrible platform, always choosing the right words. If u give ban for nothing, then the rules should be the same for other streamers as well \u2014 Sasha (@s1mpleO) November 29, 2019 He has even gone as far as to ask the platform to remove his partnership. Most Twitch partners are bound by contract to exclusively stream on the platform, so he would need it to be revoked if he were to stream somewhere else. \u201cCan\u2019t remove Twitch partnership by myself because of the ban, do it instead of me please @Twitch?\u201d said s1mple, following up on his earlier post. Can\u2019t remove twitch partnership by myself because of ban, do it instead of me please @Twitch \u2014 Sasha (@s1mpleO) November 29, 2019 He has yet to comment further on the matter and his streaming future, but many fans are suggesting Mixer as his new home, a platform that massive streamers like Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins and Michael \u2018Shroud\u2019 Grzesiek have migrated to. Meanwhile, Twitch have yet to release a statement regarding the situation, however, the company rarely comments publicly about bans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
