When KICK burst onto the streaming scene at the start of 2023, many wrote it off as something that wouldn\u2019t last long and would just appeal to streamers who were affected by Twitch\u2019s ban on gambling content. Fast forward to the end of 2023 and the Stake-backed platform has solidified itself as a challenger to Twitch. They\u2019ve signed big streamers to non-exclusive deals, allowing them to split their time between both platforms. NICKMERCS has become the latest streamer to ink one of those deals, as he\u2019s streaming on KICK for the next year. However, he\u2019s come under fire a bit for revealing that he \u201chas\u201d to gamble at times when streaming on there. xQc hits out at NICKMERCS for saying he has to gamble on KICK The FaZe Clan star said gambling is \u201cpart of the contract\u201d with KICK, however, xQc has questioned if he\u2019s telling the complete truth. \u201cThey don\u2019t want to add more gamba s*it, they want to go normal mode, ok? So if Nick has a f*cking clause that says he\u2019s got to gamble, he put it there,\u201d the Canadian said, claiming Nick has separate deals with KICK and Stake. \u201cNot only did he sign for KICK, he asked for a Stake deal, he got a Stake deal and he tries to say \u2018Oh guys, I\u2019ve got to gamba, it\u2019s part of the contract\u2019 when it\u2019s not. That\u2019s just disingenuous. Nick is bugging, Nick has got to fix this s*it up, ok. I don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on with Nick.\u201d The former Overwatch star claimed that he and other streamers who made the jump to KICK before \u201ccould have spoken like that\u201d but it\u2019s ultimately \u201cstupid\u201d from Nick. It remains to be seen if Nick will clear things up or it\u2019ll just rumble on. But he\u2019s already made it clear he\u2019s got a spot outside of the US to cater to his gambling streams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>xQc blasts NICKMERCS over claim he has to gamble while on KICK Twitch: xQc\/NICKMERCSStreaming star Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel called Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff \u201cdisingenuous\u201d for revealing that he will gamble on KICK after signing a non-exclusive deal with the platform.
