Political commentator Steven “Destiny” had a pretty blunt reaction after Zack “Asmongold” spoke about possibly leaving Twitch. On August 22, 2026, Asmongold discussed his recent 14-day Twitch suspension and admitted he is now seriously thinking about streaming somewhere else if another ban happens. His comments came with a bigger question attached: how long does he actually want to stay on Twitch? Destiny looked at that possibility from a very different angle. According to him, Asmongold leaving would give Hasan “HasanAbi” an almost unmatched position on the platform. Destiny described the idea as “Hasan’s dream,” arguing that Hasan could have “sole reign” over the entire platform if Zack moved elsewhere. That comment quickly became one of the main talking points around the discussion.

Why Asmongold is considering another streaming platform
The whole thing started with Asmongold explaining how he felt about his latest suspension. He said he “doesn’t think what he said was bannable” and also believes he had not said anything wrong.
But another suspension could change his plans. Asmongold said he is thinking about “moving over and streaming on another platform entirely” if Twitch bans him again.
He also admitted that Twitch is still the biggest livestreaming platform and that many of his viewers prefer watching him there.
That makes the decision less straightforward. He has streamed on Twitch for 10 years and said he is attached to the platform. He also said he likes and cares about Twitch, while accepting that things can eventually come to an end.
