From April 11 to 24, streamers on the Twitch platform are invited to follow an event created by Amazon. The latter will have small challenges to complete in order to hope to receive small rewards. Except that the challenges are very shady and the rewards border on burlesque. In effect, Twitch offers to give rewards to 300 streamers in France if they reach specific subscription levels and a little astronomical for some.
The Twitch Event That Splits
The first step to try to receive a beanie and a €20 Amazon voucher requires 250 subscriptions. 250 subs, as pointed out Globetopus, is equivalent to €1,000, i.e. €405 for the streamer and €595 for Twitch. As a result, for €1,000 streamers will be able to enjoy a great Twitch beanie. Which class.
Except that it does not stop there, because as we said just before, it is simply the first level, the others are more and more demanding and the rewards are not up to the efforts of the streamers.
Many think it was an April Fool’s joke, but unfortunately it is not. Twitch is trying to make an event to “reward” content creators, while the real purpose of this maneuver is undoubtedly a need to generate money very quickly. This is a highly dubious practice and very few streamers will play the game, because a Twitch beanie or backpack is not rewarding for them.
Especially since this event immediately puts in the closet the little streamers who try to stand out from the others. As a result, Twitch announces to all its streamers that only big streamers will be able to “take advantage” of this event. Afterwards, is it a big loss not to participate in this event at the risk of not getting a great Twitch beanie in exchange for €1,000 of effort? Only those concerned can tell us.

The Karmine Corp could well land on Valorant soon. The info is not official, but the structure of Kameto would have sought to recruit players before being blocked by Team Vitality… Even if nothing was signed in the end, it still indicates that things are moving in backstage.
