Is Dr Disrespect Streaming again? Dr Disrespect goes live on Youtube after getting banned from Twitch

Dr Disrespect is one of Twitch’s biggest live streaming starts. His entertaining style of streaming has garnered him millions of followers. However, he has been permanently banned on Twitch from June 26. Read more to find out if he is live-streaming again and where he might.

Guy ‘Dr DisRespect’ Beahm is a 28-year-old former Twitch streamer with millions of followers on the platform. In 2015, he quit his full-time job with Sledgehammer Games, a videogame company to focus full-time on live streaming. At the time, he had 4.69 million followers and over 100 million views on his channel.

Why was Dr Disrespect banned from Twitch?

The live streaming platform Twitch signed an exclusive streaming deal with Dr Disrespect in March 2020. Although the full details of the deal are not officially revealed, it is speculated to be for 2 years and millions of dollars.

Despite the deal, the live-streaming platform decided to ban the celebrity streamer from their platform on June 26. The platform also did not have any comments as to why they decided to suddenly ban him.

The Doc, in an interview with PC gamer, has already confirmed that he will not be coming back to the platform. He further added that he wasn’t interested in an exclusivity deal and would live-stream independently.

This is not the first time Dr Disrespect has been in trouble with Twitch. In 2019, he received a 2-week ban after he was discovered live-streaming from the men’s bathroom.

Where will Dr Disrespectful live-stream now?

Dr Disrespectful will now be the latest celebrity streamers migrating to Google’s YouTube. According to his spokesperson, the icon will be streaming live tonight from his YouTube channel. He is yet to sign an exclusivity deal as he is also exploring other options like Facebook Gaming or even streaming from his own site, Champions.gg.
