In a bizarre crossover between tech and Twitch, billionaire Elon Musk has found himself in hot water with one of the internet’s most popular streamers — Asmongold. The drama centers around Musk’s alleged fake gaming skills and his controversial gameplay performance during a Path of Exile 2 stream.

The Accusation: Elon Musk Isn’t Really Playing

It all started when Elon Musk streamed himself playing Path of Exile 2 aboard his private jet using Starlink’s in-flight Wi-Fi. While the billionaire tried to flex his “gamer credentials,” the internet was not buying it — especially Asmongold.

During one of his live streams, Asmongold reacted to Musk’s gameplay and openly accused him of faking his gaming abilities:

“There’s no way this guy is actually playing. He either bought the account or had someone power-level it for him. No shot that was legit.”

According to Asmongold, Musk’s behavior in-game didn’t match that of a skilled player. This wasn’t the first time Musk had made bold claims about his gaming prowess — he previously hinted at being a top-tier Diablo IV and Path of Exile player.

Elon Fires Back: “Asmon Is a Fraud”

Musk didn’t stay silent for long. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), he clapped back at Asmongold with several fiery posts, even allegedly leaking DMs between the two.

One tweet read:

“Asmon pretends to be independent but needs permission from his boss to say anything. Not exactly a warrior of truth.”

Musk also doubled down on his gaming credentials and claimed the backlash was simply “jealousy from mid-tier streamers.”

Community Reaction: Divided Opinions

The internet was quick to pick sides. Some defended Asmongold, saying his take was valid and based on actual gameplay analysis. Others mocked Musk’s rage, pointing out the irony of a billionaire getting this heated over being called a bad gamer.

Meanwhile, fans noticed Musk’s Path of Exile 2 stream ended abruptly after intense trolling and cyberbullying in the chat. The incident trended across gaming forums and Reddit, with memes flooding the timeline.

A Reputation at Stake?

This isn’t the first time Elon Musk has been accused of exaggerating his gamer credentials. Reports from earlier this year revealed that while Musk claimed to be active in Diablo IV, his character was leveling up during times he was confirmed to be at public events — leading many to believe he paid someone to grind on his behalf.

Conclusion: Just a Game or More Than That?

The Elon vs. Asmongold drama is more than just a spat between a billionaire and a streamer — it’s a culture clash between authenticity and image. Whether Musk’s gaming claims are legit or not, the internet’s judgment has already been swift and unforgiving.

What’s next? Will Musk return with proof of his skills in another livestream? Will Asmongold continue the roast? One thing’s certain — this drama isn’t over yet.
