He released a video on November 29, 2021 on his Mogul Mail channel, clarifying why exactly he left Twitch.[11]

He stated that his partnership contract with Twitch ended on November and he was talking to both Twitch and YouTube, he was just originally gonna chat to YouTube to buff his deal with Twitch and stay with the platform. He also said that he had to grind for hours on Twitch to get more money but then YouTube started to offer him more money than Twitch, straight up. So, after asking opinions from his family and friends. He decided to do a coin flip 1 month before his deal with Twitch expires (Heads for him going on YouTube Streaming and Tails for him staying on Twitch Streaming) and he had tails so he first declined the YouTube deal. But after deciding a few days on November, he decided to go to YouTube because he was allowed by YouTube to stream less hours and earn more money.[12]

As of now, Ludwig posts his YouTube VODs on his former Twitch VODs channel.[13]
