Stream Roast Puts Alinity’s Behavior Back in the Spotlight
In a recent Twitch charity stream, speedrunner BloodThunder couldn’t resist taking a dig at controversial streamer Alinity, bringing attention back to her questionable actions. With over 100,000 viewers tuned in to Awesome Games Done Quick 2019, BloodThunder seized the opportunity to roast Alinity while completing a successful run of the popular horror FPS game, BioShock.
Nearing the end of his run, BloodThunder used the game’s telekinesis ability to pick up a dead cat and gift it to a character called the Little Sister. But before doing so, he dropped a bombshell about Alinity. “I think she’s earned a pet,” BloodThunder said. “Gotta make sure we give it a bath. The thing is, if you’re gonna have a pet, you gotta take care of it, you know, you don’t wanna be like your favorite Twitch streamer and just throw it around.”
This remark was in reference to a controversial incident last summer where Alinity threw her cat over her head while streaming Apex Legends. Despite the outcry from the Twitch community and accusations of animal abuse, Alinity managed to avoid a ban. The reaction from the people sitting behind BloodThunder on the couch showed that they understood the impact of his burn.
What made the roast even more effective was that BloodThunder never mentioned Alinity by name. However, given the outcry against her for her actions, as well as previous clips of her questionable behavior including feeding her cat alcohol, it was clear who he was referring to.
Alinity’s actions have consistently frustrated viewers who feel that she should be held accountable. Despite numerous negative incidents, she has managed to avoid any significant consequences. Meanwhile, BloodThunder is an accomplished speedrunner, having beaten over 50 games, including BioShock, and achieving the remarkable feat of completing 210 different games in a single month.
