Invitational didn\u2019t exactly go as planned, as the YouTube sensation has revealed his huge financial losses at the MrBeast-sponsored event. Ludwig Ahgren is no stranger when it comes to gaming tournaments. Having competed them in Smash tournaments alongside the likes of Mew2King and Plup, the YouTube star has also leaped into the world of competitive Fortnite too. His love for the Smash franchise remains as strong as ever, with Ludwig\u2019s Super Smash Bros. Invitational marking another thrilling chapter in his career. However, Ludwig\u2019s time in the event resulted in an unexpected financial meltdown. Ludwig jokingly berates Aiden Calvin amid Smash loss: \u201cYou piece of sh*t!\u201d Ludwig\u2019s Super Smash Bros. Invitational came to its conclusion on October 23, leaving its attendees plenty of stories to tell. The event found a saving grace in Jimmy \u2018MrBeast\u2019 Donaldson after he stepped in to sponsor it following a lack of funding. Frequent collaborator Aiden\/Aimen Calvin was one of the tournament\u2019s many competitors, though his results left Ludwig bewildered. \u201cBig thank you to Aimen\u2026for getting it done against all odds! And he only lost over $100,000!\u201d exclaimed Ludwig. Recoiling behind his hand, Ludwig\u2019s long-time friend clarified it was actually \u201c$200,000.\u201d Topic discussed at 9:46:00 \u201cWhat the f***! You lost $200,000 you piece of sh*t! Are you f****** kidding? Do you know how many Mogul Mails I had to do?\u201d Ludwig comically shouted. \u201cDo you know? Twitch drama\u2019s over! Twitch drama\u2019s over! You piece of sh*t! We\u2019re gonna lose it all.\u201d Jokes aside, Aiden shared his thoughts on the tournament\u2019s overall success on social media. The competitor explained that he \u201ccan\u2019t help but feel we\u2019ve ultimately lacked the polish and viewership for this event to be truly historic.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m very happy with the number of matches streamed, schedule, and format. Hope everyone enjoys top 16 tomorrow,\u201d Aiden added. It\u2019s likely that another tournament could be on the cards, but we\u2019ll have to wait and see what Ludwig plans next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ludwig reveals he lost $200k on Smash tournament despite MrBeast sponsorship YouTube: LudwigLudwig\u2019s Super Smash Bros.
