The streamer has some choice words for those who are urging Blizzard to ban him.
Asmongold is facing backlash after his World of Warcraft: Forever guild sparked complaints regarding alleged rule violations and player harassment on the game's beta servers.
The guild, named Olympus, has attracted thousands of players. Hundreds of fans reportedly swarm around the former OTK member whenever he logs online. The situation has frustrated non-members, with critics accusing Asmongold and his followers of behavior that could violate Blizzard's rules on disrupting other players' experiences.
One player claimed they had to log off after Asmongold's arrival caused the area around Stormwind to become overwhelmingly crowded and unplayable. Other players have accused the streamer's followers of pressuring people to leave their existing guilds and join Olympus.
Asmongold Responds Strikes Back
Asmongold addressed the criticism on stream, dismissing his critics as "annoying" and "snowflakes." He also had a few words for those denouncing his guild.
Do you know why they're mad about me? It's because a lot of the people that are mad about me are fat in real life. And they're so fat in real life that they're used to taking up so much space [...] that they're used to just getting their way.
Throughout the stream, Asmongold laughed off claims that he was encouraging harassment or mobilizing his community to pressure players into joining Olympus.

Rather than distancing himself from Olympus, Asmongold appeared to embrace the attention and encouraged more players to join the guild.
There are two types of people in WoW: Forever. There are people who are in Olympus, and people who aren't in Olympus yet. That's all. You're gonna be in Olympus.
He also rejected accusations that he or his community were receiving preferential treatment from Blizzard, arguing that the criticism surrounding Olympus was being blown out of proportion.
Fans Defend Asmongold's Impact on WoW
Fans have defended Asmongold by pointing to his long-standing impact on the MMO. The streamer has been creating content around World of Warcraft for more than a decade and remains closely associated with the franchise.
His supporters argue that his enormous audience brings significant attention to the game, with the massive Olympus guild in the World of Warcraft: Forever beta demonstrating the scale of his community. Thousands of players have joined Olympus and regularly participate in large-scale activities alongside the streamer.
Supporters view the crowds surrounding Asmongold as evidence of the excitement he brings to the game, arguing that banning him could ultimately hurt World of Warcraft: Forever by removing one of its biggest sources of exposure.
