Asmongold Challenges Elon Musk in New Video

Summary

• Asmongold challenges Elon Musk to prove his reported gaming achievements in Path of Exile 2, offering to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can provide evidence.
• Musk was removed from Path of Exile 2 due to rapid actions, leading to suspicions of using macros or bots, which casts doubt on his gaming skills.
• Musk has yet to respond to Asmongold's challenge.

Twitch content creator Asmongold has issued a bold challenge to Elon Musk, offering to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can provide evidence that he legitimately reached level 97 in Path of Exile 2. Achieving this level typically requires a significant amount of time and skill, leading some to speculate that Musk may have received assistance from another experienced player.

Elon Musk has never concealed his passion for video games and frequently shares updates about his gaming experiences with his followers. Recently, Musk was ejected from Path of Exile 2 due to executing numerous actions in rapid succession. He claimed that his gameplay was so flawless that the game's anti-cheat system mistakenly flagged it as using macros, tools that automate actions. While this incident underscores that the world's richest man still finds time for gaming, it also fuels skepticism among some players about whether Musk is truly the mastermind behind these gaming feats.

Controversial Twitch streamer Asmongold has questioned Musk's gaming credentials, doubting that Musk could reach level 97 on his own. Asmongold's challenge is not an exclusivity deal; he would continue streaming on Twitch concurrently. He suggested that Musk's motivation might be more about ego and that honesty about his gaming achievements could enhance his public image rather than attempting to impress with potentially unearned accolades.

Asmongold's Challenge Offers Musk a Chance to Boost Twitter Streaming

It remains to be seen whether Musk will take up Asmongold's challenge. If he does, it could significantly expand Twitter's reach into the game streaming arena. Asmongold, with over 3 million followers on his main Twitch channel, could help propel Twitter's streaming ambitions forward. Previously, Musk outlined Twitter's revenue-sharing model, which enables content creators to earn from ad revenue and includes features like tipping and paid subscriptions.

It's noteworthy that Asmongold has previously commented on Musk. For instance, in November 2024, Asmongold expressed support for Musk's inclusion of Twitch in a lawsuit against companies accused of boycotting Twitter.
