Shroud hosting month-long Twitch Fragathon charity stream
Shroud / InstagramShroud is in the midst of a month-long Twitch subathon to raise money for charity, dedicated to his father who passed away from cancer last year. Here’s everything you need to know about his Fragathon stream.
Former CS and Valorant pro turned streaming star, shroud is leaning into his FPS skills for a month-long subathon on Twitch. As announced on X (formerly Twitter), the shooter phenom is putting his own spin on the popular subathon trend.
“Last year I lost my dad to cancer,” shroud said. “Ever since I have been looking for ways I can support people who are going through similar situations. We came up with the Fragathon.”
What is Shroud’s Fragathon stream?
The idea is simple, while shroud’s Fragathon will serve as an ordinary subathon, meaning subscriptions and donations will all go to charity, the twist is that his kills all matter too.
Throughout the entire month of January, every single kill shroud gets in any video game he’s playing will be added to a tally. Each kill is worth one dollar, while the subs and donations impact the multiplier.
So at the end of the Fragathon stream, 100% of the proceeds will be going to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and it will no doubt be a hefty sum.
Shroud added: “I won’t be alone. I am inviting all my friends to come by and donate frags in person at a LAN center that I am building in my house. There’s also going to be IRL events and challenges that will add to the counter when we are not gaming.” He has not yet specified which creators will be joining him for the event but we’ll be sure to update you here.
How much money has Shroud raised so far?
Shroud has already raised just shy of $30,000 USD at the time of writing.
Currently, shroud has amassed just 1,722 frags across the various games he’s played. However, when adding subs and donations to the mix, the current total sits at $29,869 USD.
