SHiFT goes viral after “begging” for subs during Twitch stream
During a recent subathon stream on Twitch, SHiFT was down to just an hour and a half left when he began asking his viewers to gift subs.
“Come on guys, five subs. If we get 50 we’ll get a two-minute multiplier. We just need five subs,” he explained. “You think this is begging? I’m telling you guys how to save money. If I wanted to make more money I’d let you guys drop the combo and then I’d get the 50 when it’s worth the combo…you guys don’t understand how math works.
“That’s fking crazy. ‘Stop begging,’ I’m begging for you guys to save money… fking stupid, just ban that guy.”
The clip has been viewed over 40k times in less than a day and has been shared in various places around Reddit.
He took to his Twitter account shortly after, andsaid: “Come at me.”
Users replied to SHiFT, slamming him for begging for subs: “You beg for subs, obtain 30,000, and only have 200 viewers. Talk about nobody liking you and being irrelevant. Hold this L.”
