Sodapoppin claims Blizzard has \u201cpersonal vendetta\u201d against him following WoW success Twitch: Sodapoppin\/ Activision BlizzardVeteran streamer Chance \u2018Sodapoppin\u2019 Morris has claimed that he has \u201cnever\u201d been given the beta versions of Activision Blizzard games such as Overwatch and World Of Warcraft. The reason being, he believes, is that one employee \u201cf**king hates\u201d him. Sodapoppin has earned his title as a veteran of the streaming community having set up his Twitch account at 18 years old. Although he enjoyed a huge popularity boost after featuring Among Us in his content, it was his WoW streams that helped catapult him to stardom in his early career, subsequently making him one of the most popular players of the MMO at the time. However, despite his incredible success, Soda claims that WoW\u2019s developer Activision Blizzard was reluctant to work with him. So much so, that it went back on a sponsorship deal with the streamer. Sodapoopin reveals past Activision Blizzard deal On June 24, Sodapoppin shared that he was once approached for a sponsorship deal with Activision Blizzard in the lead-up to the release of the Crusader class in Diablo Immortal. However, the deal soon fell through for one hard-hitting reason. \u201cA long time ago and this was when I was much younger I got a sponsorship opportunity to play the new Crusader Class in Diablo 3,\u201d Soda claimed. \u201cThey\u2019re not even paying that much I\u2019m just excited and all they wanted was a YouTube video of playing and showing off the Crusader Class.\u201d However, he then got a phone call from the management company who originally hired him for the job supposedly saying, \u201cBlizzard really doesn\u2019t like you and we f**ked up. We\u2019re sorry. They don\u2019t you want to have you do the video.\u201d Yet, he was offered half the original fee for not releasing the clip instead. It\u2019s not clear why the deal fell through, but Soda believes it\u2019s because one Blizzard employee has a \u201cpersonal vendetta\u201d against him. As a result, he was also excluded from having access to any beta versions of Blizzard games such as Overwatch and WoW. Although, all is forgiven on Soda\u2019s end: \u201cTo be fair, back then I deserved it [\u2026] back then I was bad. There\u2019s nothing else to it I was really really bad.\u201d Despite his success, Soda has landed himself in hot water on various occasions throughout his career not only with his fellow streamers but even with Twitch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
