The former Twitch streamer addressed the recent CrazySlick controversy and said that he owed CrazySlick the tournament winnings:

"Although I do not agree with the actions he did, I also owe him money, and I think it's wrong not to pay out."

Slime wanted to know if CrazySlick contacted Ahgren before or after the controversy:

"It wasn't after the 'thing' though, right?"

Ludwig replied:

"This is a real DM. It was after the 'thing.' Not like, right after, it wasn't like, it came out, and he was like, 'Yo,' and he like, collecting bags to go to Cancun. But it was like, this past week."
