While Ludwig’s first stream went smoothly, the upcoming star appears to have hit deadlock in less than 72 hours to his big swap, midway through his 2 December broadcast.
The YouTube suspension was placed in order due to “policy violations” from one of his first streams.
In his first YouTube stream, he skewered the idea, permanently: “I’m never doing another Subathon,” he said. “Whatever you call it, I’m not doing it!”
He explained that the situation would be a learning experience and he expects to be back live on stream on the weekend.

After then those people who tried to watch the stream got an error claiming that the stream was unavailable and had been suspended for policy violations.
Shortly after his stream came to an end, Ludwig uploaded a video to his second channel where he explained why he had been restricted from streaming on YouTube.
He saw the humor in the situation and cited that is kind of funny. He explained he was checking out the 50 most classic videos on the platform and stumbled upon Baby Shark, the children’s song.
He added, he doesn’t dare listen to another second of it, for the love of God. He became pretty sure the overlords who own Baby Shark have an iron fist on YouTube and so they took him down.
What is Ludwig’s Real Name?
Ludwig’s real name is Ludwig Anders Ahgren and he is an American Twitch streamer, YouTuber, esports commentator, and former Super Smash Bros Melee professional player.
He signed with YouTube exclusively on 29 November, leaving Twitch after streaming there for years.
