The streaming wars between industry natives and emerging competitors like Mixer, Facebook Gaming, Dlive, Caffeine and more have resulted in major contracts for the platforms\u2019 biggest stars. While there aren\u2019t specifics on summit\u2019s deal, the streamer will continue his career on Twitch, where he\u2019s become one of the site\u2019s most watched personalities while streaming a variety of titles such as Valorant, Sea of Thieves, GTA RP and more. \u201cTwitch is home, and hopefully always will be home,\u201d summit1G said in a video announcing his deal. \u201cSo that being said, I\u2019ll see you guys in the channel, and thanks again for letting me do what I do. I appreciate it very much.\u201d This news comes after speculation that summit would be moving to Mixer or another site. This was especially prevalent in the mind of some fans, since the streamer provided what were cryptic statements at the time about his streaming career\u2019s future \u2013 which now sound like messages of reassurance after his Twitch resigning announcement. \u201cI appreciate it, my friend,\u201d Summit said in reply to a fan who asked about him moving to Mixer. \u201cDon\u2019t worry mate, everything will be okay dudes.\u201d At the time, Twitch and summit\u2019s representatives at Loaded were working out the details of the new contract that could not yet be announced. Now that the ink has dried, however, there\u2019s plenty of reason for Twitch to let out a sigh of relief that they\u2019ll be holding onto one of their biggest names. https:\/\/twitter.com\/summit1g\/status\/1265326840077414400 The competition in streaming has prompted Twitch to respond by re-signing streamers, themselves. The San Francisco-based platform locked down Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys, Ben \u2018DrLupo\u2019 Lupo and Timothy \u2018TimTheTatman\u2019 Betar in the months preceding summit\u2019s exclusivity deal. Summit is joined by Brett \u2018Dakotaz\u2019 Hoffman and Josh \u2018JoshOG\u2019 Beaver, who also signed deals that will keep them on Twitch for years to come. After major moves by Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins and Michael \u2018Shroud\u2019 Grzesiek to Mixer, the feeling that no one was untouchable reverberated throughout streaming communities. While this is still true for a lot of the big names that have yet to sign with Twitch, summit and the rest of the new signees will be going live on the platform for the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
