Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed say they would have added Adin Ross to the Hardcore Minecraft marathon if Twitch hadn't banned him

Streamers Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed have been through some frustrating moments during their Hardcore Minecraft Marathon, with constant arguments and intense moments, making the event emotional at times. Nevertheless, the duo have crossed the 66-hour mark of the marathon, as of this writing, and have accumulated over 30 deaths.

During one run at the game, after the two made significant progress by finding diamonds and standing clad with full iron armor, they discussed Kick streamer Adin Ross' potential presence in the marathon. They speculated how the scenario would be if the duo became a trio.

Kai started the conversation by asking Speed if he thought they would ever beat Minecraft on Hardcore with Adin Ross:

"[Would we] beat this sh*t with Adin? There's no way. ('Hell nah', replied Speed)."

Later, they changed their stance, saying that having Adin on might not be the worst idea:

"If Adin was in this sh*t, oh my god! ('...We should've added Adin, lowkey', said Speed) Yeah, we lowkey should've added Adin bruh."

Kai then pointed out Adin's current situation with Twitch, reminding Speed that he's banned on the platform:

"No, but he's banned on Twitch ('Oh yeah, I forgot, you think he would've committed through?', asked Speed) Hell yeah, on God... if we motivate him, he's going to do it... then again, he might not have the patience though."

Why is Adin Ross banned on Twitch?

For those out of the loop, Adin Ross was permanently banned from Twitch in 2023 due to unmoderated hateful conduct in his chat. During a stream, he displayed chat messages from his Kick channel, which included numerous racist and anti-Semitic comments. Ross did not take any action to moderate or remove the messages, which goes against Twitch's Community Guidelines.

The platform explicitly prohibits unmoderated hateful conduct, and this violation led to his ban. Although Ross has claimed that Twitch banned him for "no reason," the platform clarified that the decision was due to his failure to manage and moderate the hateful content that appeared during his stream.

Kai Cenat is working towards getting Adin Ross unbanned on Twitch by December 2024. His goal is to have Adin back on the platform in time for a special Christmas livestream.
