Twitch Rivals will pit eight teams of three streamers against each other in the Apex Legends arena on February 12, and big time broadcasters are already making it interesting by voicing pre-tourney smack talk.

Dr Disrespect opened his stream with a series of shots aimed at his IRL friend after shroud had seemingly disregarded the Doc as a threat for the upcoming competition making things “personal.”

The Doc is aiming to learn everything about the former pro player, and he even debuted a new stream graphic featuring numerous images of shroud to highlight his “weaknesses.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, February 12, tomorrow, we have an objective,” the Doc said. “We’re gonna grab this little guy, and snap him!”

Seems like Doc is going to live up to Twitch Rivals’ name since he’s looking forward to “ripping apart” shroud along with teammates Tyler ‘Skadoodle’ Latham and Justin “Just9n” Ortiz. The Two-Time also threw a jab to how shroud plays, hinting to its inferior status compared to his.

“This is the [field of view] range that the big boys play: like the 90’s, mid to late 90s,” the Doc said. “You want training wheels for this game? No joke, you go all the way to 110. That’s what shroud plays on… It’s training wheels, and it makes me sick.”

Twitch Rivals has produced incredible moments between big name talents, and it seems that trend will continue with the hilarious new heat between the two friends.
