Kick trolls Pokimane with ad for streamers to leave Twitch PokimaneStreaming platform Kick has trolled Twitch star Pokimane in a TikTok advertisement to entice streamers to leave the Amazon-owned platform. Since the beginning of 2023, we\u2019ve quickly seen the rise of the Stake-backed streaming platform Kick, with many of Twitch\u2019s top talent having signed mega-money deals to jump ship to the new site. So far, Kick has dealt some massive blows to its rival, with creators such as xQc, Adin Ross, Amouranth, and more signing deals worth millions to join the platform. However, it\u2019s fair to say not everybody is sold on the site. Among those that have shown distaste towards Kick include Twitch star Pokimane, who claimed after being asked by a fan if she\u2019d join the platform for at least $10 million that she wouldn\u2019t \u201ccompromise her morals and ethics\u201d to switch to the site. Kick trolls Pokimane with ad to attract Twitch users With the feud between the two platforms raging on, Kick certainly hasn\u2019t been shy in sending shots toward its rival. Similarly, Kick has even begun poking fun at Pokimane following her criticism of the platform and the creators have signed deals. As reported by Jake Lucky, Kick is now serving ads on TikTok, which are aimed at getting creators to \u201cJoin The Better Streaming Platform.\u201d The ad shows the iconic Beetlejuice \u2018I\u2019m just hanging around\u2019 meme on top of the platform\u2019s directory page, which also has the caption \u201cWhen Pokimane catches a streamer considering Kick.\u201d \u201cThese Kick Ads are getting out of control. I can\u2019t even browse tik tok in peace,\u201d Jake wrote on Twitter. It\u2019s fair to say fans of Kick loved the ad, with many praising them for the idea. \u201cKick marketing team killing it,\u201d said one. \u201cYou gotta give them credit, it\u2019s pretty funny,\u201d wrote another. Despite poking fun a bit of fun at the Twitch star, Kick\u2019s CEO Ed Craven revealed that the platform wanted to actually work with Pokimane \u2014 and still does despite her being highly critical of the streaming site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
