Marcel “MontanaBlack” Eris (36) is one of the biggest streamers on German Twitch. Currently, there is a lot of speculation about his private life on social media. The statements of a 21-year-old are now fueling the discussion.
What is it about? Observers of the German Twitch scene have been suspecting a secret relationship between MontanaBlack and the 19-year-old Twitch streamer Alena aka “snipsska” for some time now. However, there is no official confirmation yet.
Critics see a power imbalance between the millionaire Twitch star MontanaBlack and the young woman. They view the alleged relationship as problematic due to the significant age difference.
The criticism is reinforced by the fact that “snipsska” was reportedly only 17 years old when the contact between her and MontanaBlack started. The discussion is now being fueled by a podcast in which a 21-year-old reports how the streamer allegedly made advances towards his then-girlfriend.
MontanaBlack also started small:
Ex describes private messages between MontanaBlack and his girlfriend
Who is the ex? This is the former Fortnite player and Twitch streamer Berkay “Berki” Sarioba. He was apparently in a relationship with “snipsska” in 2022 (via X). In a podcast, he now reports on private messages between MontanaBlack and his then-girlfriend.
In an excerpt, Berki explains how it all supposedly started. He asked MontanaBlack to take a photo with his girlfriend. When she posted the picture the next day, MontanaBlack is said to have contacted her and started a conversation with her.
The 21-year-old says his girlfriend showed him the screenshots of the conversation, thrilled. At some point, however, he noticed that she hadn’t shown him the entire conversation. In the messages that she showed him upon his request, MontanaBlack allegedly told the young woman that she smelled very good and asked her about her perfume.
You can see the corresponding excerpt here; a full version of the podcast is to be released on Spotify.
This version matches a screenshot that Berki posted in November 2023. The image shows a message from April 2022, which he apparently sent to MontanaBlack. In it, he criticizes the alleged messages from the Twitch streamer with “snipsska” and wrote: “I don’t know if you forgot that she is my girlfriend and knows that she is 17.” (via X)
Viewers demand a statement from MontanaBlack
How is this being discussed? The clip spread from TikTok to X and Reddit, where it has already been viewed by over 700,000 people. In the comments, some call MontanaBlack’s behavior “disgusting.” Others, however, urge caution with Berki’s version: After all, many an ex has nothing good to say about their former partners.
Moreover, in many comments, users tag the respective account of MontanaBlack. With this, they apparently want to urge the Twitch streamer to comment on the situation. However, others mockingly suggest that he will at best let his lawyer speak for him. For “snipsska,” the joint streams with MontanaBlack back then meant a huge boost.
