The streaming industry is undergoing tectonic shifts that might change the entire game. While Amazon-owned Twitch remains the most-viewed streaming platform, others are quickly carving out bigger pieces for themselves. In recent times, Kick has hit the headlines for ushering in a new era of streaming options. Some of the biggest names in the business have left Twitch to go aboard the green platform. Now, Kick’s CEO delves into the possibility of the “Two-Timer” Dr Disrespect coming under the fold.

Twitch‘s policy updates are causing a lot of annoyance among content creators and Kick is looking to make the most of it. Over the recent months, Kick offered some jaw-dropping deals to streamers like xQc. Kick CEO Eddie recently revealed that Dr Disrespect might eventually end up streaming there as well.

Streaming changed the idea of how content creators can connect with their fans. While the industry is primarily dominated by Amazon’s Twitch, other platforms are quickly learning the tricks of the trade.

Among them, Kick is probably making the most of things with its incredible support for creators. With many streamers already making their presence felt on Kick, fans have long wanted to know if  Dr Disrespect has any plans to join the green platform’s A-list.

In a recent interview, Kick CEO talked about such a possibility and hinted that such a move might be more likely than what fans think. Eddie said that Kick is talking to “everyone” about the possibilities of joining hands and pushing the streaming industry to new heights.

On being asked if the enthusiasm for streamers to come over to Kick has slowed down, Eddie mentioned that creators understand the possibilities that Kick presents. Naturally, the topic of the two-time Blockbuster Video Game World Champion Dr Disrespect also came across and Eddie talked about exciting opportunities.

 

Eddie believes Dr Disrespect is someone who the platform considers as a “pillar of live streaming” and wants to collaborate in the future. He said that Kick wants the PUBG streamer and the Doc also wants to be on the platform, claiming, “he wants us.” While he didn’t exactly mention that Dr Disrespect has taken the decision just yet, Eddie thinks the news is going to happen “eventually.
