The shocking Twitter conversation thread seemed to gain a lot of traction after Radstads, one of YouTube Gaming streamer Ludwig's TikTok editors, claimed that a high-ranking executive at Twitch had stolen his work and republished it on different social media platforms.

Following his exposure, Christian Bishop, the Director at Twitch Properties, blocked the TikTok editor and ceased all communications regarding the topic. He also made his account private for a short duration during the peak of this controversy.

Calling out the malicious action, Radstads spoke out against Bishop by saying:

"You work for Twitch and you're knowingly strealing content, so how are you not embarrassed?"

On March 16, 2022, Radstads' tweet started to trend on Reddit and other media platforms, where he claimed that one of the highest-ranking corporate executives had stolen his and other content creators' work.

This was the second public callout by the editor. Back in November 2021, he tagged the official account of Esports that was seen ripping off his content. It did not receive as much traction as it did this time.

Instead of deleting the content, Esports uploaded more stolen content and added their watermark, claiming it to be their original content.

Radstads updated audiences about his situation when he shared a screenshot of a conversation involving the head of digital at Esports - Kendryx (@Kendryx_). According to the head of digital, they doubled down on their negative stance and went on to call Radstads a "f***ing nobody."

Following this interaction, the TikTok editor posted advice for fellow editors who work for big-name streamers and influencers. He pleaded with them not to share their work with any other organization or its owner. He asked people to connect with him directly to support them.

Streamer Ludwig was seen in the reply section of the conversation, where he directly addressed the parties against whom the allegations were presented.

Due to the significant outreach, several fans and audiences were seen interacting in the Reddit thread created for the topic. Some Reddit users confirmed that the TikTok profile for Esports had deleted all of the stolen content.

Some joked about how the person in the claims will lose their corporate job.

A few mentioned that Ludwig had spoken about Christian Bishop on his stream.

A tweet was posted following the debacle on Esports Organization's official Twitter handle, which sought an apology from the public. They addressed the situation and mentioned that they had messed up.

The short-lived drama ended after Esports' TikTok profile deleted all their content from the short video hosting platform.
