The most successful streamer on Twitch is the Franco-Canadian Félix “xQc” Lengyel (27). He has now become the target of an action that would probably shrink the ego of every man. In a podcast, 8 women were shown a picture of the streamer with a bare upper body and asked if they would go out with him. The answers were devastating.
Who is he?
- xQc was, until 5 years ago, a moderately successful Overwatch pro, specializing in Reinhardt, who was noticeable for his lack of self-control and constantly got into trouble for insulting people left and right. When penalized, he stated that it was not his fault, the Twitch chat raised him. Then you just become like him.
- When his e-sport career inevitably ended in his early 20s and no team wanted him anymore, he began a Twitch career where he achieved a meteoric rise with his “raw, hyperactive” style. He was apparently a figure many viewers could identify with.
- In the last 5 years, xQc has streamed like crazy, surpassing all English-speaking streamers and has been number 1 on Twitch for several years. Privately, things are only going suboptimally for him: He apparently has a turbulent relationship behind him and is now struggling with several problems. For instance, a $273,000 sports car is owned by his ex-girlfriend.
xQc is currently still the most successful streamer on Twitch over the course of the year. He will probably soon lose the spot to KaiCenat, as xQc is now seen more frequently on Kick thanks to a mega-offer and streams less on Twitch.
8 women say: They would not go out with xQc
This is what he had to deal with now: In a podcast that was also broadcast as a video, the host asked 8 women who are roughly the same age as xQc if they would go out with him.
He seems to make it clear: In such abstract situations, women would say that wealth in a man does not matter to them, but in reality, money does play a role.
They probably like a different type: I am a cave goblin
He then says he is not offended. The women are “club-going, extroverted super party girls.” They would prefer a different type of man: a masculine, bearded, cool guy who sounds like he is into the scene and entertainment. That is not him.
They have very specific ideas about a man, and that is all okay.
I am a cave goblin. I have a smaller pool of people to go out with. It is just how it is.
This “it is what it is” has now become a catchphrase of xQc. He always mumbles the phrase when he is totally dissatisfied with something but has to come to terms with it. When he talks about his on-off girlfriend/ex-wife Adept, you hear the “it is what it is” particularly often.
To do this, he showed them a picture of xQc from his Instagram channel, where the 27-year-old takes a selfie with his shirt off.
The reactions are devastating:
- One mumbled: “I am taller than him”
- Another said: “He needs to eat a sandwich”
In general, rejection and lack of interest from the ladies is evident.
The host then asks:
“Let me put it this way: Does it change anything that he is one of the most-watched Twitch streamers? The guy probably makes millions $ a month?
Still zero interest from the women. One says: “That makes it even worse.” Another mumbles: “I don’t even know what Twitch is.”
Apparently, xQc cannot score with this target audience.
“Money doesn’t matter until it comes to who pays the bill”
How does xQc react to this? He says about the disinterest that women don’t care about money until the waiter brings the bill. Then they would look at “the guy on the other side of the table.”
