Twitch streamer Trainwreckstv, revealed on Twitter that EA had banned him from competing in NICKMERCS‘ Apex Legends tournament due to the gambling content in his stream.
NICKMERCS has announced his $50,000 Apex Legends tournament, which will feature some well-known streamers and content creators.
NICKMERCS addressed the problem on his stream. He stated; “My assumption and understanding is that it has to do with the stuff he does on stream. Personally, I don’t really care so much about the gambling stuff.”
Following Trainwreck’s original post, he launched an angry rant against EA, expressing his dissatisfaction with the reason for his exclusion. In a tweet, the 30-year-old streamer slammed EA for ‘virtue signaling,’ citing the company’s use of FIFA Card Packs and previous arrangements in which Trainwrecks was supposedly paid $150,000 for playing Apex Legends. The Twitch streamer reportedly threatened to double the cost of Nick’s tournament sponsorships.
Trainwrecks’ stream has frequently emphasized gambling content, despite the fact that he believes he was wrongfully banned from participation in the event.
that he had lost almost $2 million off-stream in a tweet on July 10th. Trainwrecks argues that his gambling streams are transparent and that he handles the sensitive matter appropriately.
Despite the fact that many fellow streamers and content creators have come out in support of Trainwreck, EA and Nick have yet to comment on his loaded tweet.
