During a livestream on January 24, Twitch star Imane "Pokimane" decided to have a "serious conversation," revealing that YouTube Gaming sensation Thomas "Sykkuno" had removed her from his Valorant friends list once again.
The Moroccan-Canadian personality was curious as to what she needed to do to stop Sykkuno from deleting her from his friends list. Pokimane jokingly asked if it was a "me problem," and stated:
"I need to have a serious conversation with you guys. Especially for anybody that watches Sykkuno. Like, I know you guys think he's like your shy king but we have to have a serious discussion right now. Okay? What do I need to do... so that he stops deleting me off of games. Like, is it a me problem? Because if it is, I want to know!"
