However, it is speculated that Cenat’s ban was prompted by his passing out on stream after consuming some edibles. Twitch has the authority to ban accounts for displaying content that violates its policies. They can also ban an account if a streamer leaves or passes out during a live stream. Even Esports journalist Jake Lucky has tweeted that it could be the possible reason.
