Ali Kabbani, who goes by his streaming alias Myth, joins a growing list of high-profile Twitch streamers who left for YouTube Gaming. Just last week, popular Twitch streamer and OfflineTV member, LilyPichu announced that she would be streaming exclusively on YouTube. The two streamers joins the likes of content creators like DrLupo, TimTheTatMan, Ludwig, Valkyrae, Sykkuno, CouRage and of course, the two-time DrDisrespect himself.

Kabbani on Monday took to Twitter to announce the news to his fans. He shared a video and wrote, “This is my decision.”

“I love games — it’s never going to change,” Myth told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview. “But I think that shift and focus about it not just being strictly about winning games anymore has driven me to feel like YouTube was the right place.”

Myth gained popularity as a Fortnite streamer and played professionally for team TSM. He is one of Twitch’s biggest creators with more than 7.4 million followers on the platform. He also has more than 4.5 million subscribers on YouTube.

In a separate tweet, YouTube’s Head of Gaming, said, “Today we welcome Myth to YouTube Gaming. I’ve loved that he has always bet on himself to take his passion to the next level and has continued to evolve his brand despite all the twists and turns.”
