Valkyrae blasts \u201cgross\u201d viewers after accusing Sykkuno of cheating at Battleships Streaming star Rachell \u2018Valkyrae\u2019 Hofstetter hit out at her chat for being \u201cdisgusting\u201d after they called her bad and accused Sykkuno of cheating all while playing a friendly game of battleships. YouTube streamer and co-owner of 100 Thieves, Valkyrae was just playing a few fun, casual matches of battleships with her pal Sykkuno as they dipped their toes into something new. It was all fun and games until her chat took things a little too seriously. After making a mistake while playing, Valkyrae\u2019s chat started flaming her, immediately changing the usual relaxing atmosphere of the stream. Her chat began getting mad, calling her bad at the game, and even going as far as to say that Sykkuno was stream sniping and cheating. https:\/\/youtu.be\/Tsrk-WxDVpw?t=82 While Sykkuno took a quick bathroom break after the game, Rae began having an honest talk with her chat. \u201cYou guys really suck, I get it, I make mistakes. I\u2019m not a battleship professional and no, Sykkuno was not cheating! Why would we cheat? We\u2019re literally friends and we\u2019re just playing a game,\u201d he said. \u201cYou\u2019re so gross, I cannot believe how gross some of you are. You\u2019re so nasty, get out of here.\u201d Last year, she signed a multi-year streaming deal with YouTube, and while she\u2019s seen huge growth since, not everything has been sunshine and rainbows on YouTube. From an entirely different community to a lack of infrastructure compared to Twitch, it\u2019s fair to say there\u2019s a lot to be worked on. A major one of them being chat features. \u201cI think it\u2019s YouTube chat honestly because I don\u2019t see my other friends chat being like this and it\u2019s kind of embarrassing. You guys are supposed to be the representation of how YouTube streams can be,\u201d she said. https:\/\/twitter.com\/itsraechill\/status\/1421322427351539715?ref_src=twsrctfwtwcamptweetembedtwterm1421322427351539715twgrtwcons1_c10&ref_url=httpswww.dexerto.comwp-adminpost-new.php Shortly after the stream, Valkyrae decided to private the VOD, followed by an influx of tweets from her alt account, apologizing for the \u201cbad vibes\u201d of the stream. https:\/\/twitter.com\/itsraechill\/status\/1421321453962629126?s=20 https:\/\/twitter.com\/itsraechill\/status\/1421322919116894211?s=20 In the past, Rae\u2019s viewers have taken heed of her annoyances, so they\u2019ll probably switch things up when she goes live next. As for the Twitch-like features to control chat, that falls on YouTube to implement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
