Asmongold Issues Challenge to Elon Musk

Summary

• Asmongold challenges Elon Musk to prove his gaming achievements, offering to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can verify reaching level 97 in Path of Exile 2.
• Musk was removed from Path of Exile 2 for performing actions too quickly, leading to suspicions of using macros or bots.
• Musk has yet to respond to Asmongold's challenge.

Twitch content creator Asmongold has challenged Elon Musk to substantiate his claim of reaching level 97 in Path of Exile 2, a feat that typically requires significant time and skill. Asmongold offered to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can provide solid evidence of his achievement, although this would not be an exclusive arrangement as he would continue streaming on Twitch simultaneously. This challenge stems from doubts about Musk's gaming prowess, particularly after he was ejected from Path of Exile 2 for performing actions too quickly, which the game's anti-cheat system interpreted as potential macro or bot use.

Elon Musk, known for his enthusiasm for video games, has frequently shared his gaming experiences with his followers. However, his removal from Path of Exile 2 and the subsequent speculation about his use of automation tools have cast a shadow over his reported achievements. Asmongold suggested that Musk's motivation might be driven by ego and that honesty about his gaming skills could make him more relatable to his audience.

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

Whether Musk will take up Asmongold's challenge remains to be seen, but it presents an opportunity to expand Twitter's presence in the gaming streaming market. Asmongold, with over 3 million followers on his primary Twitch channel, could significantly enhance Twitter's streaming platform if he were to stream there. This move aligns with Musk's vision for Twitter, which includes a revenue-sharing model for content creators, along with features like tipping and paid subscriptions.

It's worth noting that Asmongold has previously commented on Musk's ventures, such as expressing support for Musk's legal actions against companies accused of boycotting Twitter in November 2024.
