Speculation and Rumors

Why Dr. Disrespect got Banned from Twitch?

Now the question arises, Why Doc is looking for legal counsel, as Twitch.tv did not file any lawsuit against Doc, and even if twitch does so in the future, they need to explain the reason behind the contract revocation and Doc’s permanent ban, which would be against their company’s strong policies. So, a question still looms, is there anything wrong with Dr. Disrespects or any move after he signed a renewed contract, where he is frightened to be facing a lawsuit from the Twitch.tv if so I wonder what the movie was.

According to many speculations and Rumors, Doc was looking to migrate from Twitch to some other platform, since a couple of months prior to the contract renewal. Dr. Disrespect was getting offers from other platforms and looking for the other better-paying options, according to many sources. If that was the case, then this might be a reason behind Doc’s ban. If the Twitch admin has acquired some proof over this matter, they may have banned Dr. Respect due to lack of loyalty, and it would be a great and fair warning for other big creators who looking for the same double agent agreements.

But, Doc confirmed it again that a return move to Twitch is not going to happen at any cost.

In the interview Dr. (Guy Beahm) Disrespect explained that he is not interested in signing any exclusive deals with any platform, due to various reasons, one of them is each platform have their own many strange regulations. He also explained that he announced a singing of a multi-year contract with Twitch in March 2020; and after that only things got worsen between him and Twitch authority. So, for sure he is not looking for any new contracts with some unique opportunities. Though Doc said YouTube and Facebook Gaming is a quite viable choice nowadays, he is more interested in doing something of his own. According to Doc’s own words, Dr. Disrespect is now considering streaming independently on his own website, www.championsclub.gg. The website is just a merchandise store right now, but he is looking forward to making it an independent streaming platform, and if he manages to do so successfully, he would become the pioneer of such a job, where a gamer/streamer/entertainer created his own platform. Crazy right, I think so.
