Popular twitch streamer Nicholas Kolcheff better known as Nickmercs has recently hinted at switching from Twitch to Youtube gaming stating that he “signed a beefer”.
Earlier this September, Twitch lost two of the biggest streamers on the platform and that is Dr Lupo and TimTheTatman as they announced that they signed an exclusive deal with youtube gaming.
Following the announcements, Twitch streamer NICKMERCS hinted at making a shift to another platform as he revealed during his recent stream that he has signed what can only be described as the biggest deal of his life in the stream.
Here’s what he said; “I can’t tell you guys too much, but I just signed the biggest deal of my life… the biggest deal. This is like, the kind of deal that’s not about you anymore. It’s about your family, your friends, all that sh*t, you know? So, we’re making moves. Huge, huge moves.”
NICKMERCS has been streaming on Twitch since 2010 and has streamed on the platform religiously for the past 11 years, where he has now garnered 6.2 million followers, apart from 69k subscribers. However, it is noteworthy that the streamer has a YouTube channel with over four million subscribers. Therefore, he won’t really have to build a community again if he decides to switch to YouTube.
NICKMERCS seemed pretty excited about the deal, unfortunately, he could not reveal much about it yet. However, with the amount he has hyped up the news and the magnitude of what he claims it is, the only possible guess can be that he is shifting to YouTube streaming. While the streamer has not exactly named YouTube explicitly, the community is guessing the most.
