While the tweet was short and sweet, it has given fans of the former TSM Fortnite star hope for a potential return to Twitch. Daequan has practically disappeared from the public eye in 2020. He vowed that he\u2019d try to return to Twitch by January 2020 after taking time off to focus on his health, but hasn\u2019t made an appearance on the platform since December 2019. On top of that, he\u2019s gone quiet on socials, not posting anything since March. While he has moved in with long-time friend and former duo Hamlinz in the meantime, there wasn\u2019t any indication he was coming back to streaming. Feeling better than I have in years. Always thankful \ud83d\udda4 pic.twitter.com\/Bm4EyAZts4 \u2014 Daequan (@DaequanLoco) November 26, 2020 However, Daequan has finally broken his silence to give thanks to his fans on Thanksgiving, and tell everyone that he is getting along just fine. \u201cFeeling better than I have in years. Always thankful,\u201d the short message red, with a selfie of the streamer. The tweet has gone viral, with over 100,000 fans liking the tweet, and many of his contemporaries sending him messages of support, including TimtheTatman, NICKMERCS, and Classify. Daequan\u2019s eight-word return has also managed to spark hope in his fanbase of a potential return to streaming. No matter whether it\u2019s Fortnite, or a new game that\u2019s come out in his absence like Valorant, Daequan\u2019s fans are itching to see him back on the platform. There is potential for a return. Hamlinz has been a bit more active on social media, and Tfue even tried to get him to turn on the stream \u2014 even if just for a day. No matter what though, Daequan is taking things at his own pace. He\u2019s still on that journey to better health, and will return in his own time when he believes it\u2019s right. Fans of Daequan will be hoping it\u2019s not another six months until we hear from the TSM Fortnite star again, but only time will tell if he actually commits to returning to streaming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daequan\u2019s first tweet after 6-month hiatus sparks hope for Twitch return Twitter: DaequanDaequan \u2018Daequan\u2019 Loco has broken his six-month social media silence in time for Thanksgiving.
