Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel had a blast playing Pokemon Sword and Shield on November 14, much to the chagrin of fellow Twitch streamer Dr Disrespect who made his displeasure known.
Ever since becoming a variety streamer and leaving the world of pro Overwatch behind, xQc has risen to the top of Twitch. According to the third-party website Twitch Metrics, Felix’s channel is the most-watched variety channel on the entire platform.
Part of his success has come from playing games like the newly-released Pokemon Sword and Shield. However, with the success also comes envy and Dr Disrespect made his opinion on xQc’s popular streams well-known.
Taking to Twitter, the two-time claimed he was tired of seeing xQc broadcasting to 30,000 viewers while playing Pokemon.
I'm tired of seeing @xQc sitting at 30k viewers playing Pokemon.
This is my platform and you know it.

“This is my platform and you know it,” Doc said, tagging the French Canadian. For his part, however, the former Overwatch World Cup MVP wasn’t intimidated in the slightest and had a tactical nuke of a reply up his sleeve.
“Ok boomer,” Lengyel wrote back racking up nearly 1,500 retweets in the process.
The term “ok boomer” has gone viral in recent weeks with major news outlets covering the surging popularity of the Millennial-crafted phrase.

You son of a…..
This isn't the last you hear from me.

The phrase is designed to dismiss the opinions of the Baby Boom generation, otherwise known as “boomers.” It’s short, swift and gets the point across. Most importantly, it shut Dr Disrespect up, for the most part.
“You son of a,” the two-time responded, but didn’t bother cursing. He did, however, warn the popular variety streamer that this wouldn’t be the last he would hear of him.
With Dr Disrespect’s former top Twitch rival shroud now over on Mixer, it’s possible that he’ll be feuding with xQc next.
The two are some of the most dominating personalities on the platform and seeing the duo clash on stream could be a real treat, especially considering how capable the two are at dishing it out.
Now, if only there was a way to get Doc and Felix to have a Pokemon battle.
