xQc Twitch gambling: Former Overwatch pro denies promoting gambling links on livestream
On a recent livestream, former Overwatch pro, Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel was reacting to a Bloomberg article that spoke about the effects of gambling on Twitch. The streamer was mentioned several times throughout the article, and at one point, the article mentioned that xQc had shared a promotion code that brought $119 million to Stake.
“In May, Lengyel said the promotion code he shared on Twitch brought $119 million to Stake.”
xQc vehemently protested against these claims, and pulled up his statistics to prove that the data shared in the article was actually false.
“That is me. These are my statistics. These are mine, not anybody else’s. These are my stats, not the viewers’. It’s completely incorrect.”

However, the data also revealed that since May 2022, the popular Twitch streamer had wagered $685,075,984 while gambling. xQc confirmed that he had gambled over $500 million since May 2022, and seemed to be quite unfazed, saying that the amount was not that much anyway.
However, he actively denied having promoted any gambling links on his livestream, and went ahead to bash the journalist for spreading misinformation about him.
“So if you think your due diligence as a journalist is to review the evidence before writing an article about it, I would assume you would do your job right and do some of the things correctly and go to the motions to make sure that your big f**king hit pieces and big numbers are not incorrect.”
He even went on to state that he had never promoted any gambling codes on his livestreams either.
“That is massive stupid. And I never promoted the f**king code either.”
xQc has always maintained that he does not promote gambling to his fans, even if he indulges in the same himself.
