Michael AragonShroud: So he switched to Mixer and left
Shroud seemed to regret his move to Mixer early on, as his audience numbers dropped enormously. His previous audience record on Twitch was just over 200,000 simultaneous viewers . On its new platform Mixer , the Warzone streamer couldn't even begin to match these numbers after switching. In the first month on Mixer , he lost around 67% of his viewers .

The reason for the change was still the same as with streaming colleague Ninja : the money. Because despite the closure of Microsoft's Mixer * service, Shroud is estimated to have received around 10 million US dollars. However, these figures are not confirmed.
But although Shroud signed a contract with Mixer stating that the California- born entertainer has to stream exclusively via Mixer , the Warzone streamer is now active again on Twitch . This is because the Mixer platform had to shut down some time ago because Microsoft's project was not worth it. And so the contracts of the biggest streamers like Shroud and Ninja were automatically terminated.
As early as June 2020, there was a rumor that Ninja and Shroud should stream on Facebook in the future . However, this rumor seems to have been dashed and so the two prodigal sons Ninja and Shroud return home to Twitch. * ingame.de is part of the Ippen-Digital network
