A brief look into the streamer's previous suspensions

As mentioned earlier, Sebastian has been banned four times on Twitch ever since he started broadcasting on the platform. On May 8, 2020, he was suspended for the first time after saying "r**arded Russians" during a Valorant livestream. This resulted in him serving a 14-day-long ban.

His most contentious ban was issued on November 26, 2020, after he accidentally displayed s*xually explicit content. He was eventually unbanned after a month.
