Ludwig is refusing to do YouTube subathon but one thing could change his mind YouTube: LudwigLudwig has finally made his YouTube debut, and during his first stream he shot down demands for him to stage a second \u201cTwitch subathon\u201d on his new home \u2014 but admitted one thing could convince him to change his tune. The newly-minted YouTube streamer still holds a special slice of Twitch history: from March 14 to April 14, he kept his stream live 24 hours a day for 31 days. The immense Twitch subathon sparked dozens of copycats, earned him more than 2.6 million followers on what is now his old streaming website, and solidified his place atop the all-time subscriber counts on Amazon\u2019s popular platform, meaning he\u2019ll always have his name in the Twitch history books. It\u2019s now been nine months since the star\u2019s month-long effort came to a tear-jerking end, and Ludwig still cops one question, even after his big YouTube swap: when is he going to stage a \u201csubathon 2.0\u201d? In his first YouTube stream, Ludwig skewered the idea, permanently: \u201cI\u2019m never doing another subathon,\u201d he said. \u201cWhatever you call it, I\u2019m not doing it!\u201d Like Charles Dickens famously wrote, however, never say never. While Ludwig was originally quite firm on the idea he would \u201cnever\u201d do a subathon \u2014 or, rather, \u201cmemberathon\u201d \u2014 on YouTube, the in-demand streamer quickly came around to the idea, with one very clear condition. \u201cLook, unless! Caveat. Unless it was for a charity event,\u201d he admitted. \u201cAnd then I would consider it. Like, if someone came to me and said it would be $100,000 a day to charity. Then I\u2019ll stay live for that day. Keep going from there, you know what I mean? But that\u2019s very hypothetical. He quickly added this wasn\u2019t an announcement though. \u201cI don\u2019t have any plans, before you assume something. None at all. Zero plans there!\u201d Related segment begins at 1:47:29 in the video below. One fan suggested Ludwig could \u201cpop back over to Twitch\u201d if someone ever bowled down his immense subscriber record, to which the Canadian laughed. \u201cI don\u2019t think YouTube would like that very much!\u201d he said. \u201cHey, YouTube, mind if I head back over for a month? Yeah, it\u2019s just a little thing, no worries, thanks.\u201d The bottom line is, there\u2019s a chance we\u2019ll never see Ludwig host \u201cSubathon 2.0,\u201d especially after YouTube\u2019s newest star admitted just talking about the possibility made him feel \u201cvery weird.\u201d Recently, rising Twitch star Kkatamina staged her own popular subathon, which ran for 14 days and solidified her place as the most-subscribed female star ever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
