He was even consulted about the new program.
The massively successful streamer gave a unique perspectiveduring a recent live stream. His case was strengthened after he revealed he was consulted about the program.
Asmongold was consulted on the new Twitch sponsorships program
“Twitch talked to me about this feature, and I gave them feedback and consulted with them about it,” Asmongold said.
Asmongold’s take was contrary to the overall thoughts being shared in the replies to the tweet from the platform.
Given the company’s decision to double down on its 50/50 subscription model in recent months, it was, of course, met with some hard criticisms. Many users chimed in with concerns about Twitch taking portions of money that should go to the creators instead.
Asmongold was quick to point out, however, that many of these commenters were misunderstanding the situation.
In terms of how he feels about the program with the knowledge he has, he believes in the idea. “In general, I think it’s a good idea. I do,” he said.

Overall, the jury will still be out on the new program until it rolls out to enough users. After some time for streamers to utilize it, we’ll find out much more about what benefits or consequences it will have.
