xQc has been an essential part of the blue-and-white organization, and his popularity only rose during his tenure. The streamer has become one of the most popular faces of the organization and has also been integral to their brand.
Not just that, he was also named streamer of the year for the third year in a row. While no reason has been given out for the split, Esports news reporter Jake Lucky believes it could be because the organization was no longer able to afford the streaming giant. He tweeted saying: “The most watched streamer of 2022, wonder if anyone can afford him”
