xQc shreds new TikTok trend

Felix is usually known for his long streams, lasting up to 20-22 hours. He generally divides his streams into several segments. Some of which can consist of him watching or reacting to YouTube or TikTok videos.

Among the videos he came across on TikTok, he saw a trick where a popsicle was broken in half. A suspicious xQc was not convinced. He looked doubtful about it right away, as he exclaimed:

"That does not exist. That is not a thing. That's not possible...it's impossible..."

The 26-year-old Twitch streamer then stormed out of the room and found a popsicle. He tried for a while to break the item in half. But he was unsuccessful. The best he could do was bend it a little.

Seeing that the trick was false, he wore a wide grin, knowing that he had successfully debunked the trend on TikTok. He added:

"Bro I went hard, I went hard!...it's frozen solid man!"

Although titles like FIFA 08 and GTA San Andreas acted as the catalyst for his love of video games, the exponential growth of the streaming community also propelled his interest in the genre. He also has a prior work experience of 2 years.

Shreyan considers factual and accurate content to be the most important as a creator and a reader. He ensures this by double checking every piece of information in his articles and sourcing it from streamers directly rather than depend on third parties. His works have caught the attention of the heavyweights, with the PR team of Sidemen (a YouTube group he’s been following since his teenage days) and Chess.com reaching out to him for sending exclusive press releases.

Shreyan would love to drop into the virtual world of FIFA/EA FC and explore it further but, he would recommend playing Red Dead Redemption 2 to gaming skeptics for its top-tier gameplay, story and characters. During his downtime, he enjoys balancing his interests in reading, watching films and sports, and of course, playing video games.
