The biggest WoW streamer, Asmongold, has a girlfriend: Pink Sparkles. She is also a streamer. The two openly conduct their relationship and are frequently a topic on Twitch.
This is Asmongold: He is a popular WoW streamer with a lot of reach, but has recently struggled with World of Warcraft and critically addressed the path that Blizzard has taken.
Asmongold likes to play with an image as a “typical gaming nerd.” He recently posted that he showered for the first time in two weeks and now has to start all over again.
Asmongold clearly enjoys sarcasm.
On the surface, he fits every gamer stereotype and is seen as someone who has practically “lived” World of Warcraft for much of his life. Asmongold has over 770,000 followers on Twitch.
Who is Pink_Sparkles? She is a Twitch streamer with about 730,000 followers – but leans more towards being an “influencer” than a typical gamer.
She also fits every stereotype one might have about female streamers: However, those are quite different from male streamers.
On her Instagram page , she poses in swimwear. A noticeable cleavage can be seen on stream.
This is how they interact with each other: There are several clips circulating that show how the couple is perceived publicly.
We show you two clips: In one, they joke with each other, and in the other, the mood is not so harmonious.
This is the harmonious clip: In this video, Asmongold sets up the stream for his girlfriend while she is playing Fortnite.
While doing so, Asmongold focuses the camera on the cleavage of the streamer – who fears that this could lead to a Twitch ban.
In the clip, it is clear that both know exactly how they are perceived in public.
This is the not-so-harmonious clip: In the latest clip, both are playing Apex Legends. Pink Sparkles dies and complains to her boyfriend that he didn’t help her.
Asmongold justifies himself with a sigh, saying he was under heavy fire.
No, says Pink Sparkles. He was only looking out of the window.
She then ends the conversation and logs out.
This provided yet another topic for discussion: Here, Asmongold appeared to be the victim of a hot-headed girlfriend who keeps him under her thumb.
Reddit analyzes and offers relationship advice on love life
This is how it is received The interesting part of the relationship is that discussions about these clips and their relationship take place publicly on reddit – just like a celebrity couple.
On reddit , one can read long analyses about their relationship.
Many commenters seem to identify with Asmongold as a “nerd buddy.” A picture is painted of Asmongold as someone who was isolated for a long time and has now become “famous” but ended up with the wrong girlfriend.
It is said that Asmongold should
- just go to the gym
- eat better
- and pay more attention to his hygiene.
Then he could definitely get someone better than Pink Sparkles. He only lives for his girlfriend now and is dependent on her. He should rather seek someone with similar interests.
Many view Pink Sparkles as a “villain” and “seductress” with ulterior motives.
This is how both respond to the comments:
Pink_Sparkles speaks publicly about what is going on around her. She says that everything is being over-analyzed and she is made out to be the villain. It is completely normal for couples to argue sometimes.
Asmongold seems rather indifferent to it. He is often asked if it bothers him that his girlfriend is so revealing.
He says it does not bother him at all and does not make him insecure.
When he discusses his relationship with Pink_Sparkles in videos, he is usually ironic and relaxed towards her. He often pokes fun at her exaggerated make-up.
This is why it interests many people: Many gamers seem to identify with Asmongold. They draw parallels to their own lives and relationships.
It seems the “Twitch” generation enjoys discussing and speculating about celebrity couples just as much as their parents do about TV stars or prince couples.
The external perception of how others see the couple seems to differ completely from how they view their relationship.
And both Pink Sparkles and Asmongold seem to benefit from the additional public attention that their relationship brings them.
