During his latest stream, he was going head-to-head with PewDiePie. Doc was confident in his abilities, but PewDiePie started dominating him early on in the game. He won several rounds and the score stood in PewDiePie’s favor when it all ended.

DrDisRespect isn’t a an of losing, he sure seemed to have fun. The two had a good rapport and were certainly entertaining in their collaboration. We wouldn’t mind seeing them stream together again in the future.

DrDisRespect is yet to sign an exclusive deal with YouTube, but it looks like his best bet. He cannot return to Twitch and the viewership on YouTube has been satisfactory up until now.
