"Buy my f*cking bidets": Ludwig makes request after learning of $200,000 loss at recent Smash tournament
Ludwig Ahgren's reaction upon hearing how much his latest Smash tournament venture lost has been gaining traction on social media, as fans and the audience wonder how the successful event (that had a sponsorship from MrBeast) lost approximately $200,000.
The invitational tournament featured some of the biggest names in the Smash community, and reputable esports organizations such as T1 and FaZe Clan were among the various teams participating for the prize pool of $35,002.
While bidding the audience goodbye after the event, Ahgren urged his fans to buy bidets from his brand Swipe so that he could compensate for the loss.
Ahgren recently organized a Super Smash Bros Ultimate tournament called Ludwig Smash Invitational. It was a 32-player event, with 24 invited players and eight players selected through the Last Chance Qualifiers.
The competitors were divided into two groups and 16 advanced to the final bracket, where the double elimination format was used to ultimately crown Leonardo "MkLeo" from SK Telecom T1 the winner of the Grand Final.
This is not the first time they've organized a Smash event, but they were prepared for the Ludwig Smash Invitational to lose money after a key sponsor had dropped out a day before the event. In a tweet, Ludwig made it clear that the event would go as planned regardless of whether they lost money and mentioned that he got into streaming and content creation because of the game.
Fortunately, the world-famous YouTuber MrBeast came to the rescue and offered to sponsor the Smash Tournament. While fans and internet personalities have commended the move, the event still lost quite a lot of money, making Ludwig jokingly lash out while talking to his manager and friend, Aiden.
