On May 16, 2018, Ahgren started part-time live streaming. He started working as a full-time streamer on February 16, 2019. The majority of the content that Ahgren streamed on his channel in 2018 and 2019 was gameplay footage from Super Smash Bros. Melee, Mario Party 2, and Dark Souls.


Ahgren competed in a Pokémon Sword and Shield invitational tournament hosted by Wolfe Glick in January 2020, where he won, along with other Melee players and personalities like Mew2King and Plup. Ahgren also triumphed over Mang0 and Destiny to win an invitational event held by Americas Cardroom to crown the “King of Twitch Poker.”


Ahgren declared on November 29, 2021, that he would stop using Twitch, his current live-streaming service of choice, and start streaming on YouTube from November 30. He made the announcement in a short comedy skit that was uploaded to his YouTube and Twitter accounts that featured him blowing up a purple car that was meant to represent Twitch.


On March 14, 2021, Ahgren began a “subathon” stream, a near-continuous stream of his life with a running clock dictating how much longer the stream would run, with every subscription to his Twitch channel adding ten seconds to the timer. Even as he slept, the stream continued, with his moderators providing the entertainment. Although Ahgren expected the timer to end after a day or two at most, the stream ran for 30 days, 7 hours, and 36 minutes, ending on April 13. Initially, Ahgren set a maximum cap of 31 days for the length of the stream (which he later reduced to 30 days).

FAQs


Q. What happened to Ludwig after he joined YouTube?

A. Ahgren experienced what he believed to be a suspension from the platform just three days after switching from Twitch to YouTube. Kotaku reported that while Ahgren was streaming other YouTube videos, he accidentally played the famously catchy Baby Shark song. Shortly after, his stream was terminated, giving his viewers and himself the impression that he had been banned for breaking YouTube's copyright guidelines.


Q. Why is Ludwig moving to YouTube?

A. At a glance, it's complicated to understand Ahgren's decision to leave Twitch. With around 3 million Twitch followers, Ahgren was able to break the previous record for most subscribers during his infamous subathon. Ludwig nevertheless is now a part of YouTube. Ludwig has acknowledged that YouTube made him an attractive offer, but he also assured his followers that the decision wasn't motivated by money.
