I want to continue making dope content and I think YouTube Gaming is the best place to do that. Ludwig Ahgren was born in Hollis, New Hampshire and currently resides in Los Angeles, California. In a statement issued earlier this week about his move to livestream on YouTube Gaming exclusively, Ludwig said, “Growing my YouTube presence has been a focus of mine since I started streaming, and I’m excited to bring everything under one roof now. Ludwig is also known for his work as an esports commentator at various Super Smash Bros. Ludwig Anders Ahgren (born July 6, 1995), known mononymously as Ludwig, is an American live streamer, YouTuber, podcaster, esports commentator and competitor. In addition to livestreaming gaming content, Ludwig also hosts game shows, competitions, a podcast, and more across his various channels. On YouTube, Ludwig currently has 2.18 million subscribers for his channel. This spring, he famously hosted a 51-day “subathon” event - to urge people to pay to subscribe to his Twitch channel - and he wound up setting the record as most-subscribed Twitch streamer with a peak of 283,066 on April 13. 16, 2019, and became one of the biggest streamers on the platform with 3.1 million followers. Ludwig began streaming full-time on Twitch on Feb. (Ludwig, for what it’s worth, has vowed to never play “Baby Shark Dance” again.)Īsked for comment, a YouTube rep pointed to Ludwig’s video about the livestream suspension. According to YouTube, he did not receive a “strike” or any other penalty for the infraction. In other words, if he had stopped playing “Baby Shark Dance,” the livestream would have resumed. Just three days after Ludwig Ahgren left his massive Twitch following for YouTube, he was hit with what he thought was a suspension from the platform. Unbeknownst to Ludwig - who in YouTube lingo is a relative “NewTuber,” unfamiliar with all the platform’s nuances - the duration of YouTube’s suspension would have lasted only as long as the copyrighted material was detected.
