A fresh wave of drama has erupted on Twitch as Hasan “HasanAbi” Piker and Felix “xQc” Lengyel clash once again, this time over a controversial Twitch unban. The latest dispute comes after HasanAbi was swiftly reinstated on the platform on March 4, 2025, just 24 hours after his suspension. While the exact reason for his temporary ban remains undisclosed, it is widely speculated that it stemmed from his remarks about U.S. Senator Rick Scott.

After HasanAbi’s rapid reinstatement, xQc took to X (formerly Twitter) with a cryptic post that many saw as a jab at the decision. In his post, he used a metaphor suggesting that some people fail to recognize when they are the source of their own problems, stating, “Maybe you are the one who stepped in the st. Or maybe, you are the piece of st.” Though he did not name HasanAbi directly, fans quickly connected the dots.

HasanAbi didn’t hold back during his livestream, firing back at xQc and accusing him of alienating his peers. He claimed that xQc often complained about feeling isolated in the streaming industry while failing to acknowledge how his own behavior contributed to it. “He has actively treated every single content creator in his orbit like s**t, no matter how nice people have been to him,” HasanAbi said.

The exchange has sparked mixed reactions online, with fans debating the long-standing tensions between the two streamers. Some Reddit users criticized HasanAbi for previous accusations against xQc, while others pointed out xQc’s controversial associations.
