MontanaBlack explains why he\u2019s considered leaving Twitch Marcel \u2018MontanaBlack\u2019 Eris, who was once the most subscribed to streamer on Twitch, has opened up about his frustrations with the platform by explaining that he\u2019d leave if there was an alternative. MontanaBlack may not be as recognizable a name as Twitch streamers like Shroud, Tfue, or Dr Disrespect to English-speaking viewers, but the German broadcaster once reigned supreme as having the most subscribers on the platform. However, since that point, it hasn\u2019t exactly been smooth sailing for the streamer. He was recently banned for comments he made on another channel after he was unaware that he could be heard. On October 22, he opened about his future \u2013 noting that if there was a chance to leave Twitch, he may well take it. \u201cI tell you, honestly, If there was a good alternative to Twitch, I wouldn\u2019t be averse to leaving Twitch,\u201d he said, (via Bing Translate). \u201cI love Twitch and the community I built up there, but Twitch as a platform and how they rule and penalties are sometimes handled in completely different ways\u2026 that I feel 0%\u201d The German streamer continued on, noting that he could give \u201cmany examples where streamers have done something forbidden\u201d and \u201cnothing has happened\u201d in terms of punishment. Another streamer pointed out that the alleged racist language he had used, despite being unaware he was audible on stream, was unacceptable by Twitch\u2019s rules. Montana responded by stating: \u201cNevertheless, I did not stream and did not know that was streamed.\u201d Trotzdem habe ich nicht gestreamt und wusste nicht das gestreamt wurde. H\u00e4tte Twitch mir daf\u00fcr 30 tage gegeben w\u00e4re es mein Letzter Stream auf Twitch gewesen. \u2014 GetOnMyLvL (@MontanaBlack) October 22, 2019 The streamer also pointed out other Twitch bans, referring back to how Alinity wasn\u2019t punished for her animal abuse incident. \u201cOther streamers show their breasts on stream and get a 3-day ban, LUL,\u201d he added. \u201cThen, give my cat a vodka kiss kappa.\u201d Of course, there are alternative platforms to Twitch in the form of Mixer, YouTube, Caffeine, and even DLive \u2013 where PewDiePie has an exclusive deal. Despite having some key streamers of their own, however, none of the platforms match Twitch\u2019s audience for livestreaming at the moment, and broadcasters are reluctant to walk away. It remains to be seen what MontanaBlack will do, but he clearly isn\u2019t happy with his situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
