Popular Twitch streamer Kai Cenat shared his thoughts on VTuber Ironmouse beating him during his subathon. Both Twitch streamers are known for their entertaining gaming content that gets thousands of viewers tuning in whenever they go live.
Ironmouse recently hosted a 30-day Twitch subathon where she played various games and hosted episodes of her weekly talent show, Ironmouse VTuber Academywhile raising money for the Immune Deficiency Fund (IDF). During the subathon, Ironmouse gained over 311,000 subscribers, surpassing Kai Cenata's record of over 306,000 subscribers. She was congratulated on the huge milestone by many of Ironmouse's fans and peers, including Cenata, but she also received unnecessary hate.
In a recent Twitch stream, Cenat talked about the backlash Ironmouse was getting and showed his support for the VTuber. He reminded viewers that Ironmouse has always been one of Twitch's most subscribed streamers and that she was the person he had to beat during his very first subathon last year.
Kai Cenat defends Ironmouse after Twitch Subscriber Backlash
- Ironmouse Twitch Subscriber Record: Over 312 thousand
- Kai Cenata's previously held record: More than 306,000
Cenat also acknowledged the people who defended him after Ironmouse broke his subscription record, but went on to say that VTuber's subathon was “pretty well put together” and also praised her for donating to charity. Cenat also previously promised his supporters that he would somehow get the most subscribed Twitch streamer title back if it was broken.
Cenat has been pulling in the numbers lately with his fun Soulslike streams where he spends hours and even days trying to complete FromSoftware titles like Elden Ring and An axe. Rockstar Games even reached out to him for a possible collaboration, which fans speculate could be either Grand Theft Auto 6 cameo or early game preview. It's safe to say that Cenat could have enough game content to sustain him in his current and future streams, which could help him surpass Ironmouse again when the time is right.
Subathons are definitely a great way for streamers to gain subscribers, especially if they set goals that include fun challenges. However, there are issues with subatons such as the possibility of Twitch streamers getting hit and things going wrong. Many fans have also expressed concern that streamers aren't getting enough rest, especially those who choose to stay awake for days or continue content despite being tired until their subathon is over. Regardless, the trend is likely here to stay.
