Twitch Rivals is the platform’s exclusive esports series that pits streamer against streamer in numerous games, but their latest tournament for Apex Legends drew some ire from certain corners of the space.
During a scheduled break, Twitch Rivals switched its feed to show shroud’s personal stream, but at the tail end of the intermission, shroud heavily criticized the tourney’s format, much to the surprise of Twitch.

Shroud and teammate Tyler ‘Skadoodle’ Latham were discussing bathroom breaks before the tournament began, which led to the former CS:GO pro’s scathing comments about the event.

Shroud had trailed off just before Twitch Rivals switched back to the main studio where the hosts had to push on with the broadcast after the surprising remarks.
On his stream, shroud suggested that the format should have included some kind of break between all the action, but that part didn’t make it into the official broadcast.

The Twitch Chat for the tournament’s stream was filled with laughter after the cut was perfectly timed with shroud’s comment, making it seem like it was a way for Twitch to save face.
