5 banned streamers on Twitch who can possibly move to Kick
Adin Ross and Hikaru Nakamura are two of the notable streamers that have just joined Kick, which is positioning itself as a rival to Twitch. With Tyler 'Trainwreck' Niknam's support, the live-streaming platform positions itself as a creator-friendly website with a number of advantageous regulations.
On the other hand, catering to its rising popularity, the purple platform has opted to take a more proactive and stringent approach. It has streamers from promoting inappropriate behavior, nudity or sexual content, cheating or exploiting games, and engaging in illegal activities. Due to this, streamers of varying popularity have been banned and they may possibly move to rival platform Kick.

Exploring banned Twitch streamers who would thrive off Kick
1. JiDion
For encouraging his viewers to raid another streamer Pokimane's chat with the iconic "L+Ratio" remark, JiDion was permanently banned from Twitch. The 'Biggest Menace' contestant had to switch to YouTube Live after being permanently banned for excessive abuse.JiDion's content often pushes the boundaries of comedy and socially acceptable trolling, which is why he would thrive on Kick.
2) Destiny
American political commentator and former Twitch streamer, Steven "Destiny" has been banned or suspended on six different occasions. His last ban ultimately ended up becoming permanent. On March 23, 2022, the political and social commentator streamed on YouTube for a bit, before ultimately joining Kick on a three-month probationary period in March 2023.
3. Dr. Disrespect
American content creator with more than one million followers on Instagram, Herschel "Dr DisRespect" has cemented his legacy as one of the most influential streamers of this generation. Herschel was banned from Twitch on June 26, 2020, for reasons that still remain a mystery two-and-a-half years down the line. Nevertheless, catering to his high-octane gameplay and even better production quality ensures that Doc always can grow regardless of the platform he is streaming on.
4. IShowSpeed
Despite being permanently banned from Twitch, Darren IShowSpeed's fast-paced, amusing, and interesting commentary has helped him develop a devoted following. Speed strains the limits of acceptable behavior, much as the first entry on this list. The young online sensation would be able to easily become the biggest streamer on the site thanks to KICK's forgiving and unambiguous rules of service.
5) Ice Poseidon
You can call it one of the worst cases of Twitch wrongly enforcing its rules, American YouTuber Paul "Ice Poseidon" was permanently banned from the platform after one of his viewers made a bomb threat for a flight Ice was boarding. Given Kick's leniency and lack of moderation, Ice would be perfect for the new streaming platform.
