However, what Asmongold actually took offense to was Musk’s claim that theTwitchstreamer isn’t good at video games.
Elon Musk has incited some new drama in the gaming community over his credentials as aPath of Exile 2player. His character in the challenging game has attained level 97, andMusk was even kicked fromPath of Exile 2recently for performing too many in-game actions too fast, usually indicative of macro usage. While Musk claimed that he didn’t use macros, hisPath of Exile 2skills in other livestreams have raised eyebrows among content creators like Asmongold and Quin69, who questioned whether Musk is actually behind his gameplay.
Allegations of account-sharing began circulating andAsmongold even issued a public challenge to Elon Musk, declaring that he would stream exclusively on Twitter for a year if Musk proved he was a genuinePath of Exile 2player. In response,Musk leaked some private DMsbetween him and Asmongold discussing the latter’s editors and suggesting that the streamer needed “permission from his boss” for certain decisions. While the leaked DMs caused a stir, it was Musk’s direct criticism of Asmongold’s gaming skills that struck a nerve.
Asmongold Claps Back at Elon Musk’s Claim That the Streamer is “Not Good at Video Games”
Musk alleged in a recent tweet that while Asmongold excels at caustic commentary and humor, he is “NOT good at video games.” Asmongold quickly fired back, expressing his frustration over Musk’s remarks. “Leaking my DMs is one thing, but this is absolutely uncalled for,” said the streamer in a quote tweet. Interestingly, Musk’s tweet was community-noted with a list ofdifficultWorld of Warcraftachievementsthat Asmongold previously unlocked, effectively proving that the Twitch streamer carries significant gaming prowess. Musk, on the other hand, refuses to provide concrete evidence that legitimizes his impressivePath of Exile 2credentials and proves that he was indeed behind them.
Instead, Musk is diverting attention to livestreams where he playsDiablo 4with “the world’s best players.” The billionaire was previously reported to be anavidDiablo 4player, ranking within the top 20 in the game’s global leaderboard. Musk also hinted that he could leak more private DMs from Asmongold, which means this online altercation might flare up again soon.
