One of the individuals partaking in Kick streamer Paul "Ice Poseidon's" Hunger Games battle royale event on Kick has been bitten by another participant during their altercation. To those unaware, the special IRL event is being livestreamed by all the participants, which includes a total of fifty individuals going up against each other.
The individual who had been bitten is Kick content creator DR_BEATS, a United States Marine Corps veteran who is representing Regiment Gaming, an American online gaming community, in the contest. The winner of the contest hosted by Ice Poseidon will be rewarded with an attractive prize of $100,000.
With big prize money on the line, it appears some participants are not afraid to get a bit violent in their bid to win Ice Poseidon's Hunger Games. It appears the person who allegedly bit DR_BEATS is a fellow Kick streamer who goes by the moniker dariusirl. While the part with the altercation has been removed from his VOD on Kick from dariusirl's perspective, at the two-hour-50-minute mark, the streamer confirms having bitten a person:
"Three ni**as were on top of me and one of them put their hand in my face. And I was like, 'Okay, I can't use my f**king hands to get this ni**a off of me.' So, I bit the sh*t out of them.", revealed Kick streamer dariusirl on stream while answering queries from the audience.
Ice Poseidon's Hunger Games participant gets bitten while livestreaming
The viral clip of the encounter DR_BEATS had with another participant he was trying to restrain comes from the third day of the ongoing Hunger Games event. The event officially began on August 15, 2024.
It features selected participants starting in random locations within a designated playing area, which will get smaller in size as the game progresses. To ensure their survival, participants must move into the changing zone within the given amount of time or risk facing elimination at the hand of the "hunters".
To detect if individuals had been eliminated, they were to wear a special vest that indicates a sufficient hit through a flashing light. Meanwhile, Ice Poseidon's viewers can also place their bets on the outcome of the event on Stake.com, the website backed by Kick co-founders Bijan Tehrani and Ed Craven.
After being bitten by the other contestant, DR_BEATS can be heard aggressively chiding the man and stating:
"Hey, yo, b**ch, you going to *f**king bite me? I will literally kick your f**king teeth in, b**ch. Don't you ever bite me again... You really going to f**king bite me, bro?"
He later shared a photo of the part of his hand that had been bitten by the contestant, which showcased a clear bruising.
Ice Poseidon is known to organize monthly events, with him holding a Scavenger Hunt event in Austin, Texas. Unlike the current event, the hunt was open for everyone to participate in as long as they would stream themselves on Kick while looking for clues.
