S/O to the entertaining stream from Young Sigs and friends

According to the Wall Street Journal, publishers understand the value of streaming when it comes to promoting their newly released games. Those whose Twitch channels attract more than 15,000 concurrent viewers can earn between $25,000 and $35,000 per hour, said Reed Duchscher, president of Night Media Inc.—a firm that represents some of the world’s top influencers. The most popular streamers, such as Ninja and DrLupo, can bring in up to $50,000 per hour.

“Okay, I’m back, I’m streaming on YouTube. My Twitch account was suspended due to me being underage. And yes, I am 12,” Patrick said. “I only lied so I could fulfill my dream of being a streamer. It has been my dream for a long time, and I worked for a year and a half for it. I’m sorry that I lied.”

As part of YouTube’s rules, which are a result of federal guidelines, Patrick’s mother is now required to actively supervise him in all videos. It doesn’t appear to have tarnished his reputation, however, as he already has 900,000 subscribers.

In addition to Twitch, Epic Games has also taken action against Patrick. He’s been kicked off the leaderboards (a bit harsh, really) and banned from entering tournaments until he’s thirteen, as per Epic Games’ policy. Over the past year, he’s won $5,000 in prizes from the Winter Royale and Blackhead Cup tournaments.

It’s unclear if anything will happen to Faze, who knowingly lied about his age to enter him in tournaments. They do appear to keen to keep a hold of him, though. And regarding Patrick, while I’m not condoning the illegal behavior – I do admire his spunk.
