Dr Disrespect criticizes “underdeveloped” YouTube Gaming compared to Twitch
Streaming star Dr Disrespect couldn’t help but fire some shots at YouTube’s livestreaming service after ZLaner asked why he couldn’t clip a highlight during their Warzone games.
When Dr Disrespect wasbanned from Twitch in June of 2020,and it became clear that he wasn’t returning, members of the Champions Club wondered as to where he’d be streaming next.
Rumors about his own platform, Spotify, and others popped up, but The Doc headed for YouTube, where he has experienced plenty of success.
He’s still not allowed on Twitch –aside from an accidental appearance– and he rarely ever mentions the Amazon-owned platform anymore, but fans couldn’t help but make some connections with his old home after he took aim at YouTube.
During his May 19 stream, theDocwas tag-teaming with ZLaner in Warzone when the Canadian found himself alone and made a highlight play to survive.
Z quickly quizzed his partner on why he couldn’t clip the YouTube stream and celebrate the play. “you’re able to’t do anything on YouTube!” the Doc said.

Z also asked why YouTube hasn’t followed Twitch’s example of gifted subs, but the Doc wasn’t sure either, noting it pretty easy to do.

YouTube does offer clipping on some channels, andit is being rolled out further and further,but you have to be a partner and Doc isn’t.
Plenty ofYouTube-only streamers have asked for additional Twitch-like featuressuch as emotes and a better directory, but it remains to be seen if their calls will be heard.
