One such streamer is James ‘Phantoml0rd’ Varga. Back in 2016, he was a prominent name in the CS: GO community, but was banned for allegedly having financial relations with an in-game skin gambling website.
Unlike any other banned creator, Varga opposed his ban and filed a lawsuit against Twitch. To everyone’s surprise, he won the case recently where the platform admitted its misinterpretation towards the streamer’s offenses.

In May, a San Francisco jury claimed Twitch had acted unfairly with Phantoml0rd. Now, the latter is looking forward to bring a massive change in Twitch’s disciplinary practices that apparently violate California’s Unfair Competition Law.

Long story short, Phantoml0rd and his team want Twitch to review its policy regarding bans. The platform must give adequate reasons to any streamer that it bans and avoid sending indefinite or permanent suspensions with a reason as “Other Terms of Service Violation”.
If Twitch actually incorporates the aforementioned changes in its policy, we might get to know the reason behind Dr Disrespect’s suspicious ban. Moreover, the Two-Time himself can sue the platform, and tread a path similar to Phantoml0rd.
