Asmongold Challenges Elon Musk

Summary

• Asmongold offers to stream on Twitter if Musk can prove his reported gaming achievements.
• Musk was booted from Path of Exile 2 for fast actions, causing people to suspect macro or bot use and raising doubts about his skills.
• Musk has still not responded to Asmongold's challenge.

Twitch content creator Asmongold has challenged Elon Musk to provide evidence that he legitimately reached level 97 in Path of Exile 2, a feat that typically requires significant time and expertise. Asmongold has offered to stream on Twitter for a year if Musk can substantiate his gaming achievement. This challenge comes amid speculation that Musk might have received assistance from another skilled player.

Elon Musk, known for his love of video games, recently faced scrutiny after being removed from Path of Exile 2 due to performing too many actions in quick succession. Musk claimed that his gameplay was so flawless that the game's anti-cheat system mistakenly identified it as macro usage, which automates actions. While this incident underscores Musk's dedication to gaming, it has also led some to question the authenticity of his in-game accomplishments.

Asmongold, a prominent Twitch streamer with over 3 million followers, questioned Musk's credibility and suggested that reaching level 97 might be beyond Musk's personal capabilities. He proposed streaming on Twitter as a non-exclusive arrangement, continuing to stream on Twitch simultaneously. Asmongold believes this challenge might be driven by Musk's ego and that honesty about his gaming prowess could enhance his public image.

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

It remains to be seen whether Musk will take up Asmongold's challenge, but doing so could significantly expand Twitter's presence in the game streaming market. Asmongold's potential move to Twitter could help Musk realize his vision for the platform, which includes a revenue-sharing model for content creators through ad revenue, tipping, and paid subscriptions.

Asmongold has previously expressed support for Musk, notably in November 2024, when he backed Musk's legal action against companies accused of boycotting Twitter, highlighting his stance on the Tesla and SpaceX CEO.
