The King of the Greasies has officially left the building.
In a move that’s sending shockwaves through the streaming world, Mythic Talent announced they have “mutually agreed to part ways” with their co-founder, Asmongold. It’s the end of an era, but if you’ve been watching the slow-motion car crash of the last few months, you probably saw this coming from a mile away.
Why Now? The “Respect and Responsibility” Play
Mythic’s statement was corporate-speak for “we can’t keep cleaning up these messes.” They emphasized a commitment to an environment “grounded in respect and responsibility”. Translation? The constant firestorms were finally starting to burn the house down.
It’s been a rough ride for Asmon lately. From high-profile lawsuits involving fellow OTK members to a massive exodus of Vtubers from the Mythic roster, the agency has been under fire for months. Many creators reportedly felt like they were just a “glorified mailing list” while the owners focused on culture war drama.

The Propagandist Label: Fact or Fiction?
The internet is currently a powderkeg of accusations, with some corners of social media labeling Asmongold a “Israeli propagandist.” This stems from his explosive, unfiltered comments regarding the conflict in Gaza back in October 2024.
He didn’t just share an opinion; he went on a tirade that got him banned from Twitch, calling Palestinians “inferior” and claiming they had a call to genocide “baked into their laws”. While he later apologized, calling his own words “mean-spirited” and “psychopathic,” the “propagandist” label has stuck like glue among his harshest critics.
Is he a paid actor or just a guy who spent too much time in a literal and metaphorical echo chamber? Either way, the damage to his “brand safety” was terminal.
Stepping Back or Being Pushed Out?
Asmongold has been “stepping away” from leadership roles across his various empires—OTK, Starforge Systems, and now Mythic—for over a year now. He claims it’s to “fix his f***ing life” and become a better version of himself.
But let’s be real for a second. When your agency is losing top talent like Fillian and Tectone, and sponsors are fleeing because you’re seen as “radioactive,” is it a voluntary retreat or a desperate attempt to save the remaining scraps of the business?
He might still retain ownership behind the scenes, but the public-facing partnership is dead. The “Uniparty” of streaming orgs is moving on, and they’re leaving their most controversial founder in the rearview mirror.
Is Asmongold’s career over, or is this just the start of his “Independent” era?
