Schick Xtreme is partnering with a couple of Twitch streamers to aid in the fight against childhood cancer with a new mobile game that allows players to raise money for the cause just by playing. Shave the Day, the free-to-play game that lets players pilot XtremeMan, the bald-headed superhero in his never-ending battle to shave as many heads as possible using his razor as a hoverboard, is available to download in the App Store and Google Play Store for both Apple and Android users. Launched on May 19, Schick Xtreme plans on turning all player's in-game points into real donations to St. Baldrick's Foundation, up to $250,000.
It took a little over three years but Escape from Tarkov (EFT) has risen to the top of Twitch charts in-part due to a drop campaign that began at the start of the week. Created by Russian-based developer, BattleState Games, back in 2016, EFT has surpassed evergreen titles/categories such as League of Legends, Fortnite, Just Chatting, and CSGO to hold down the top viewership spot on the streaming platform. Top personalities such as Dr.Disrespect, Timthetatman, CohhCarnage, and others have flocked to the game to get a piece of the action and try out something new while "veteran" EFT players, Shroud and Dr.Lupo, have been playing since the early days.

I doubt it, the way youtube treats their content creators I don't see this happening anytime soon
I doubt it will kill Twitch Youtube is like a copyright nazi when it comes to games. If one of your videos gets a copyright claim it's either banned in certain countries or it won't be allowed world wide.
Can't even play copyrighted music on your stream for Youtube. Twitch will mute small portions of your vods but you can still stream with it.
*slowly giggles*
You lot know what I mean ;)
EDIT: Didn't M$ choose them as their streaming host for the XBONE?
