Pokelawls meets Fortnite player with worst microphone in history Twitch streamer Pokelawls has had his fair share of odd moments on stream, but being paired with a kid with possibly the worst microphone in gaming history is up there as one of the best. Poke started streaming full-time in 2013, primarily Activision Blizzard\u2019s Overwatch in recent years but has also dabbled in other games such as League of Legends and IRL streaming as well. In that time he has picked up over 500,000 Twitch followers, 240,000 YouTube subscribers and recently started to try out Fortnite streaming \u2013 resulting in him being paired with someone in Fortnite\u2019s duo fills that had a very clear issue with his equipment. As soon as his teammate started talking in a randomly-filled duos game, Poke immediately opened his settings to see what he could do to try and fix the fact that his teammate\u2019s microphone was picking up a lot of static \u2013 far more than is reasonably expected. It started out bearable \u2013 a little bit of feedback after initially saying hello. Poke was already starting to laugh by then, but the noise descended into chaos and then so did Poke\u2019s laughter. His teammate even offered to leave, unaware of what Poke was laughing at but his situation not getting any better. It became so bad that it was almost indistinguishable what he was trying to say \u2013 once exasperatedly asking Poke what\u2019s wrong, before telling the streamer he \u201csucks\u201d when he went down, unable to continue playing through his laughter. Finally, the kid asked \u201cWhy are you laughing so hard?\u201d and Poke finally said \u201cI\u2019m sorry, dude, it\u2019s your mic quality.\u201d The only response his teammate had was, \u201cI know, it sucks.\u201d Sometimes it\u2019s easy to forget while watching streams that not everybody has pitch-perfect microphone quality, but this kid might just take the cake for the worst we\u2019ve heard in recent years. Needless to say, the duo didn\u2019t win their match, but at least Pokelawls and his viewers were entertained.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
