Summary
- Asmongold challenged Elon Musk to prove his Path of Exile 2 level 97 achievement, offering a year of Twitter streaming in exchange for verifiable evidence.
- Musk's recent ban from Path of Exile 2 for rapid actions fueled speculation about potential macro or bot use.
- Musk has yet to respond to Asmongold's challenge.
Twitch streamer Asmongold publicly questioned Elon Musk's claimed Path of Exile 2 level 97 achievement, a feat generally requiring significant skill and playtime. This skepticism stems from Musk's recent ban from the game for exceeding the action-per-second limit, leading to accusations of macro usage. While Musk attributed this to his exceptional gameplay exceeding the anti-cheat system's capabilities, doubts remain about the authenticity of his reported accomplishments.
Asmongold, known for his outspoken nature, escalated the situation by offering a year of concurrent Twitch and Twitter streaming if Musk could provide irrefutable proof of legitimately achieving level 97. Asmongold suggested this challenge is less about the game itself and more about Musk's perceived need to project an image of exceptional skill. He implied that honesty would likely garner more positive public perception than unsubstantiated claims of high-level gaming prowess.
Asmongold's Challenge: A Potential Boost for Twitter Gaming
Musk's response to Asmongold's challenge remains pending; however, accepting it presents a significant opportunity to advance Musk's vision for Twitter's gaming streaming capabilities. Asmongold's substantial Twitch following (over 3 million) makes his potential Twitter presence a powerful catalyst for growth in that sector. This aligns with Musk's previously announced revenue-sharing model for content creators on Twitter, including features like ad revenue, tipping, and paid subscriptions.
It's noteworthy that this isn't Asmongold's first public engagement with Musk. In November 2024, Asmongold publicly supported Musk's lawsuit against companies alleged to be boycotting Twitter.
