So Mald is an easy win for Cow of the Year, right?
I'm thinking so. currently bossmanjack is a notable competitor, and anisa, but I think the continued, public crashout of BS over and over is putting him in a good position against them. Its not just his lolcow behavior, but HUGE fall from grace, and complete normie sphere insisting hes a lolcow. I really hope voters consider that, a lolcow being widely hated by the general masses. I think a noticable decline is way better than "look, bossman is a crackhead for another year". This is why rekieta won so much, because he WAS "mr lawtuber" for a while, very successful, had everything, and fucked it up. So judging from him winning twice, my money is definitely on mald.
Like to make a bullet point recap of shit literally JUST this year IIRC
-wow fuckup that made him meme in wow community (do you see my mana? what am I supposed to do for you)
-kicked out of his guild onlyfangs because he refused to admit any fault, left wow
-got interviewed by dr K, exposing himself as a fucking sociopath
-got dunked on by steam calling his game abandonware FORCING him to patch the game to a bare minimum capacity. Record was 14 months without a patch for an "early access" game
-DMCA'd an indie dev falsely, got BTFO when the dev got a free lawyer
-gamers collectively developed a hate boner for him lying about SKG, and slandering Ross scott, which ended up making it succeed at the last minute (knock on wood that we have over 1 mil legit)
-basically ALL sloptubers made fun of him, widely became dunked on by everyone from every corner of the internet.
-Lost 10k followers A DAY for over a WEEK
-former kit bodega video with mald was removed as it refused to associate with mald
-removed from offbrand games
-hit 1k pages in a record #8 speed on KF
-caught fudging his hype trains
-got his wikipedia page for heartbound deleted for being irrelevant
And I'm sure I'm missing shit here, but you get my point. And all that from being an "award winning streamer" last year.
