Felix “xQc” Lengyel is one of the most popular streamers in the world so it’s not a surprise that he has an abundance of haters on top of his growing fanbase. But some viewers have gone above and beyond to insult him.
On
Twitch, viewers have the option to make a donation in exchange for getting the streamer’s attention with a message. These are often questions or jokes, but someone decided to use their money to insult xQc numerous times.
During a Twitch stream earlier this week, xQc noticed that one viewer had donated multiple times, totaling $850. The viewer, Ctvvv, submitted each donation with an insult for xQc to read. The comments included telling xQc that his chat has “better rizz” than him, that he has no rhythm, insulting his aim, and mocking xQc for losing money on gambling sites.
In total, the viewer had donated over 200 times, each with a unique insult. xQc was left in shock, circling some of the insults while staring at his screen with a dumbfounded expression.
While most streamers likely would have buckled under the pressure, xQc continued to stream as usually, even
popping into an IRL date stream
to mess around with fellow streaming star Kaitlyn “Amouranth” Siragusa.
What happened to xQc after stream of insults?
Despite getting trolled by viewers, xQc largely seems back to his usual self. He’s been back to streaming after abruptly ending a broadcast a few days ago without warning. After four hours of streaming, xQc told his viewers he had to leave due to being in a “crazy headspace” and needing to deal with some things he didn’t reveal.
xQc has been dealing with a lot of public drama recently, largely due to his
relationship status. But it’s unclear what has been messing with his head the last few days.
