As his name suggests, YouTube streamer Dr Disrespect isn’t afraid of starting some controversy. He often engages in entertaining banter, giving fellow streamers such as TimTheTatman a thorough ribbing. Recently, the Doc has found a new target, Ludwig Ahgren, one of the most popular streamers in the industry.

The entertaining conflict between the streamers unsurprisingly began with Dr Disrespect poking fun at his rival. Often when Ludwig would come up in a discussion, the Doc would purposefully forget how to pronounce his fellow YouTuber’s name. In addition, he also brought up the topic of Ludwig missing out on Streamer of the Year honors. While many of Dr Disrespect's fans found these playful jabs amusing, it appears that Ludwig is tired of the comments from the Doc.

Recently, YouTube star streamer Ludwig has decided to take his rivalry with Dr Disrespect to the next level. In a tweet, he challenged the Doc to a 1v1. “Let’s find out who’s the better gamer this week,” he wrote. On top of the already exciting challenge, Ludwig put the stakes high, suggesting that the loser pay out $1 million.

Since making this post, Ludwig has corrected one important area of his message. Apparently, he does not intend to place $1 million on the line for the challenge, explaining that he was exaggerating to make it seem more dramatic. According to the streamer, this hyperbole was done to copy Dr Disrespect’s tendency to make things bigger than they actually are. In addition, Ludwig stated that he doubts the star streamer will even acknowledge his challenge. “He won’t even reply. Everybody relax!” he said. It is unclear whether he meant this genuinely or if this was a ploy to get the Doc in on the action.

Another part of the challenge up for debate is what game would be played for the 1v1. Both content creators have their strengths. Besides claiming that he is the most athletic gamer in the world, Dr Disrespect is proficient at first-person shooters. He often plays games like Call of Duty: Warzone on his streams. On the other hand, Ludwig has a history in fighting games, as he is an accomplished Super Smash Bros. player. It would be interesting to see if they pick from either of these genres or select an unrelated title.

This is assuming that the challenge between the YouTube streamers actually came to fruition. At the time of writing, Dr Disrespect has yet to respond to the gaming challenge. However, given the current rivalry between the streamers, it seems probable that the Doc will respond. The real question will be whether he accepts the challenge or claims that Ludwig is unworthy of competing against his gaming greatness. It seems only time will tell.
