N3on confirms leaks, he’s leaving Kick for Twitch
Rangesh “N3on” Mutama has officially confirmed leaks regarding his move to streaming platform Twitch, following weeks of speculation about his potential departure from Kick.
N3on had been teasing a possible exit from Kick during his streams, hinting that his recent broadcast might be his last on the platform. He also recently announced an indefinite break from streaming, fueling rumors that he was leaving Kick for good. He’s been with the Stake-backed platform for over a year now following two bans during his time on Twitch. But his run on Kick hasn’t exactly been smooth either, as controversies followed him there as well. Now, after much speculation, the streamer has confirmed what fans have suspected all along.
In a new trailer, the streamer can be seen walking out of a green room and opening a door with Twitch’s logo on it.
N3on leaves Kick to stream on Twitch
Rumors of N3on’s move to Twitch started picking up after a clip surfaced of Charlamagne Tha God on The Breakfast Club podcast claiming N3on was planning to leave Kick and wanted to make the announcement on the show. That announcement never came through, but when N3on suddenly stepped away from streaming, fans took it as a quiet confirmation that he was actually making the switch.
The official announcement from N3on ends with a link to his Twitch channel, where he currently sits at 195,000 followers, roughly half of what he now has on Kick.
This move has perhaps been inevitable for the streamer after months of controversy and repeated bans. In January 2025, the streamer complained that Kick had somehow capped his viewers, threatening to move to another streaming platform if the issue wasn’t fixed. He also accused Kick of having a “hidden agenda” against him. This accusation came after he was banned from streaming on Kick in December 2024 for animal cruelty for allegedly encouraging his friends to kill a chicken off-camera.
It looks like the streamer is now planning to take his audience and his livestreaming business to Twitch, where he’ll have to adjust to the platform’s even stricter rules and guidelines.
It’s worth keeping in mind that N3on has already been banned on Twitch twice before. His switch to Kick was a major turning point in his streaming career, a move N3on himself credited for his rise. Adin Ross, a popular advocate for Kick and a friend to N3on, was among those who commented on the move and questioned its efficacy.

It remains to be seen how well N3on will adapt to streaming on Twitch and obeying Twitch’s terms of service, given that his content often pushed the line even on Kick.
