Mr Beast responds to $10 million Rocket League 1v1 wager from pro player Instagram: Mr Beast \/ PsyonixIf you thought Jimmy \u2018Mr Beast\u2019 Donaldson was rich enough, he might just pocket another $10 million. Rocket League player and coach Treyven \u2018Lethamyr\u2019 Robitaille has challenged the YouTuber to a wager match of epic proportions, and Mr Beast is keen. Wager matches for a tenner, $50, or even upwards of $100 aren\u2019t unheard of. Winning a wager is not only a nice little ego boost, but can be a handy way to get cash if you are a top player. However, a $10 million wager is unheard of. It\u2019s a ludicrous amount of money. Even if it was safe as houses \u2013 which it isn\u2019t \u2013 would seem pretty unreasonable. However, that\u2019s exactly what former Mousesports Rocket League coach Lethamyr has done when he challenged Mr Beast on Twitter this week. \u201cI hereby challenge Mr Beast to a game of Rocket League 1v1. If he can defeat me with his own two hands on his controller, I will pay him $10 million. Challenge is valid for one week,\u201d he said on Twitter. I hereby challenge @MrBeastYT to a game of @RocketLeague 1v1. If he can defeat me with his own 2 hands on his controller, I will pay him $10 MILLION DOLLARS. Challenge is valid for 1 week. \u2014 SSG Lethamyr (@Lethamyr_RL) July 9, 2020 Mr Beast has dabbled in Rocket League before \u2014 but not in the way you\u2019d expect. In classic Mr Beast fashion, he brought the rocket-propelled cars to life, posting a video back in 2018 of him playing soccer with real life cars. The video has attracted over 15 million views to date. For perspective, Lethamyr, who was an active pro from 2016 to this year, earned approximately $48,175 according to Liquipedia. The wager he\u2019s putting on this match with Mr Beast is 207 times more than his reported prize money earnings over four years. Not only that, Mr Beast could also become the richest RL \u201cpro\u201d to date. According to Esports Earnings, the title is held by French star Alexandre \u2018Kaydop\u2019 Courant, who has won three RLCS titles and approximately $365,972. Presumably as soon as Donaldson got the notification (it was very quick) he hit the Rocket League star back up. \u201cSend me a contract and I\u2019ll do it,\u201d he replied. The cogs are seemingly turning in the backend, with Lethamyr jokingly saying Mr Beast is \u201cgonna cheat\u201d to get his hands on the $10 million. Regardless of the amount that ends up getting wagered though, this is going to be one hell of a game. Mr Beast may not be able to complete the wager at home though. He admitted on Twitter he got rid of his gaming computer at home so he can focus on the main love of his life \u2014 creating YouTube videos. \u201cI got rid of my gaming computer and all distractions in my house that took me away from making videos and doing what I love. Best decision I ever made. \u201cI really don\u2019t want to live a materialistic life. I\u2019d rather focus on making content and doing things that bring me long term fulfilment.\u201d I want to eventually get a terrible car and remove even more stuff. I really don\u2019t want to live a materialistic life. I\u2019d rather focus on making content and doing things that bring me long term fullfillment. \u2014 MrBeast (@MrBeast) July 9, 2020 Whether it goes ahead for the full $10 million remains to be seen. If Mr Beast wins it all though, there\u2019s going to be plenty of happy fans in upcoming videos down the line. Or perhaps we could see Mr Beast on the RLCS stage in Season 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
