A bunch of Twitch streamers are kicking themse🐻lves for not taking some sweet Mixer deals.
Microsoft announced that 168♕澳洲幸运5开奖网:they’d be shutting down their streaming service, Mixer, on July 22. The anno𝐆uncement came on Monday along with news that everyone who was currently streaming on Mixer would be transferred over to Facebook Gaming, the rival streaming service from Facebook.
Facebook was reportedly offering sweet deals to go stream for them, including similar monetary compensation and a signing bonus of $2,500 for 90-day exclusive contﷺracts. For smaller stꦅreamers, that’s a ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚlot of cash for just 3 months of work.
But for larger streamers like Ninja and Shroud, $2,500 is chump change. They lose that much money in between their sofa cushions. Facebook reportedly offered them up to double what Mixer was paying, but both refused and instead accepted th𒁃e buyout𝔉 terms from their original Mixer contracts. Ninja goꦉt $30 million while Shroud got $10 million--and they still get to go back to Twitch onc🃏e the ink is dry.
All of this money flyin🗹g around from Mixer’s shutdown has led some Twitch streamers to very publicly share their regret for not taking a Mixer deal late last year.
TimTheTatman has 5 million followers on Twitch and would have been offered aꦑ pretty sweet deal to move to Mixer back when it was jus🐼t getting started. Although we don’t know how much Microsoft offered, it was probably a lot.
When a follower asked point-blank iﷺf Tim was “kicking himself” for not taking the Mixer deal, he took quite a long time to answeꦫr with: “.”
DrDisrespect was a little more forthright with his crushing regret. In a parody of Shroud, Doc said, “I knew all along that I was gonna get paid $10 million for eigh🍌t months of work,” and then follo♒wed it up with a curse.
What’s worse, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Doc is on the record for t🐻elling Ninja that it was a “bad move” to go from Twitch to Mixer. Now Ninja is $30 million richer and can go right back to streaming on Twitch.
Who’s laughing now?
