Sykkuno claims Twitch believes star streamers are \u201creplaceable\u201d amid YouTube exodus Twitch: SykunnoStreaming star Sykkuno has claimed that Twitch believes big streamers are \u201creplaceable\u201d following his unexpected move from the Amazon-owned site to YouTube Gaming. On May 2, Twitch streamer Sykkuno, with over 4M followers on the platform, followed the footsteps of his peers such as Ludwig, Valkyrae, DrLupo, TimTheTatman, by unveiling his shocking move to YouTube Gaming as the site\u2019s newest exclusive signing The streaming star explained that the original offer he received from Twitch was \u201cgarbage\u201d but they soon matched YouTube\u2019s offer. However, the decision was ultimately a no-brainer, after Twitch messed up with a name blunder by calling him \u201cSukkuno.\u201d Now, in a recent podcast, he said he thinks that Twitch believes their biggest creators are \u201creplaceable\u201d as they continue to make the switch away. In a recent episode of Sapnap\u2019s and Karl\u2019s podcast on May 5, they talked about the hot topic of Sykkuno leaving Twitch. It was then that Sykkuno opened up about how he thinks that other creators on the Amazon-owned platform are being treated as replaceable. \u201cI think they\u2019re treating it like creators are just replaceable,\u201d said Sykkuno. \u201cLike they might be right, which is why for me it makes more sense to take deals like that because if I\u2019m replaceable I\u2019m never going to get it again, you know? \u201cIf I\u2019m not replaceable then they might learn their lesson and they\u2019ll hopefully value it more highly next time. So I think it\u2019s just one of those things where they\u2019re trying to see how it ends up.\u201d Timestamp of 4:42 Following Sykkuno\u2019s move to the red side, fellow streamer DisguisedToast revealed he knows that \u201cat least\u201d 5 more Twitch streamers are moving to YouTube. However, he didn\u2019t give any indication as to who the five could be. With reports pointing towards major revenue changes hitting Twitch this summer, it could give more incentives to others to leave as well. But, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see who ends up jumping ship next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
