Boasting a revenue split of 95-5 in favor of content creators, the platform is substantially more generous than any of its competitors.

Why would anybody stay on twitch with 50-50 [revenue splits], and also, you\u2019re less likely to get banned.\u201d Will Asmongold leave Twitch for Kick? Asmongold leaving Twitch seems like a stretch, but as long as Kick is around to serve as an alternative, the foremost MMO streamer is certainly going to leverage his options to get as much as he can out of the Amazon-owned streaming behemoth. Asked directly if he was going to move to Kick, Asmongold didn\u2019t give a yes or no answer. Instead, he called out Twitch with a simple request. \u201cLook, Twitch, that would be cool if you guys paid me to stay,\u201d he said. \u201cThat would be really cool. How about, just give me money.\u201d The sentiment follows one of Ludwig\u2019s assertions in the YouTube video he released today. Perhaps the biggest influence that Kick can provide the content creation market is less about Kick\u2019s success and more about what the platform can force Twitch and YouTube to do. If Kick can do something similar to what Microsoft\u2019s defunct platform Mixer did by paying out lucrative contracts to top streamers, there could be a lot more guaranteed money going to some of Twitch and YouTube\u2019s influential creators.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/23175617\/asmongold-valheim.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/806117"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1771"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=806117"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/806117\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":806129,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/806117\/revisions\/806129"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/742841"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=806117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=806117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=806117"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=806117"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=806117"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=806117"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=806117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
