Twitch streamer Zack "Asmongold" has commented on the new controversy surrounding Jimmy "MrBeast." During a recent livestream, Asmongold came across the most subscribed YouTuber's viral video. In it, he rented a theater to watch the Talk Tuah podcast while listening to Olajide "KSI's" latest single Thick Of It, and eating his newly launched food and beverage brand Lunchly.
Asmongold reacted to X user @BitzelYT's viral tweet, in which they claimed that MrBeast has stopped "pretending to be a good guy," adding that he "proudly associates with transphobic right-wingers":
"He's not even pretending to be a good guy anymore. Now that Ava's out of the picture, he just proudly associates with transphobic right-wingers. If you're actually against bigotry, how can you happily continue being business partners with Logan Paul after the Imane Khelif Olympics bulls**t?"
While Asmongold believed that the video featuring MrBeast was "very corny," he responded to those who tried to "cancel" the Kansas native, saying:
"'It's corny.' It's so corny! Here's what I think happened... I think that in canceling MrBeast, all they did, you know, there's a quote - 'There's nothing more dangerous than a man with nothing left to lose.' And if he already has felt like, 'You know, everybody... they're not going to like me. I'm not going to be able to convince them to like me.'"
The co-founder of One True King (OTK) then made a lighthearted comment about MrBeast:
"Yeah, bro, this could be the second phase unleashed. 'The real beast.' (The Twitch streamer starts laughing) Bro, the villain arc, I cannot wait to see what f**king happens, man! Yeah, mask off, there's no pretending anymore. Exactly!"
"I said their pizza was better than the Lunchables pizza" - Asmongold says he was "fair" while judging MrBeast, Logan Paul, and KSI's Lunchly
At the two-hour-58-minute mark of the same livestream, Asmongold's attention was drawn to a viewer who claimed he criticized Lunchly while praising Twitch star Kai Cenat for promoting "worse food."
In response, the Texan asserted that he did not talk negatively about MrBeast, Logan Paul, and KSI's venture, claiming that he was "fair" while judging it:
"'It's funny we all s**t on this but praise Kai for promoting even worse food.' I never s**t on Lunchly! I never did! Like, I memed on it. I said it was funny. But I tried it out! And I even said... I said their pizza was better than the Lunchables pizza. You didn't know! Yeah, I was fair."

Asmongold added:
"And, this is the thing, is that you can go back and check the tapes. I was one of the only ones who was fair!"
Last month, Asmongold garnered attention when he commented on the controversy surrounding VTuber Froot, claiming she was "looking for approval for cheating on her husband."
