The internet defines Subathons as a defined period of time wherein a streamer will live stream certain stunts or activities in a bid to boost up his or her channel's subscription numbers. Streamers do this for a lot of reasons. Some do it just because. Others do it for a cause. However, while most streamers are almost always game for a Subathon, one Twitch streamer swears that he'll never do another Subathon again.
Why Doesn't Ludwig Want To Do Subathons Anymore?
Ludwig Anders Ahgren, otherwise more commonly known as just Ludwig, is a legend among streamers. In particular, his penchant for doing Subathons is nearly unrivaled. In fact, his most recent Subathon saw him stream for a month straight, starting from March 14 and ending on April 14, which prompted viewers to wonder if he's keen on doing a Subathon again to try and go for longer than a full month.
In a recent video, Ludwig addressed the question of whether or not he plans on following up on his most recent Subhaton. He claims that a follow-up would be just like a sequel, specifically, he likened it to the Hangover trilogy. He says that a second Subhaton won't be nearly as successful as the first one, saying that the same thing happened with subsequent sequels of the original Hangover film that premiered in 2009.
TLDR; don't expect Ludwig to do a Subathon again anytime soon.
You can't exactly blame him though. The streamer didn't even plan to go a full month. He originally started with the idea of doing a 24-hour stream. However, right in the middle of the initial stream, he decided to go for a full day more. Eventually, he found himself doing a month-long Subathon that ended with him having more than 200,000 subs.
