Summary
Elon Musk’sdaughter, Vivian Wilson, has criticized the billionaire’s gaming prowess in a recent Twitch stream with prominent content creator Hasan Piker. Wilson has long been vocal online about her displeasure with Musk, and this time, she aimed her sights at his skills in Blizzard’s smash-hit hero shooterOverwatch.
According to Wilson, Musk was rankedBronze inOverwatchwhen she was 12, while she and her twin brother, Griffin, held higher ranks. She recounted how Musk would frequently ask them to play ranked matches with him, likely so they could carry him through tougher competition. Musk was apparently a “Bronze Torbjorn main,” while Wilson herself played as a “Hanzo main who was barely in Silver.” Wilson didn’t mince words, saying bluntly thatMusk was “dogsh*t awful” atOverwatch.

Wilson also threw some shade at Musk’s recent controversy withPath of Exile 2, where earlier this year, Twitch streamer Quin69 accused Musk of faking his lofty leaderboard ranking in the action RPG. The backlash prompted Musk to eventually admit that he hadengaged in account sharing forPath of Exile 2, but claimed that he never intended to misrepresent his skills. Wilson dismissed the idea of Musk being a top-tier gamer, sarcastically rejecting his supposed proficiency atPath of Exile 2and questioning why he would even pretend to be good at games. “It’s fine not to be a gamer,” she quipped.
ThePath of Exile 2situation already cast a lot of doubt on Musk’s credibility as a gamer, and Wilson’s recent claims of the billionaire’s lack of skill inOverwatchhave incited further skepticism. Interestingly, when Musk confessed to boosting hisPath of Exile 2account, hisex-wife Grimes vouched for his gaming prowessfor titles likeDiablo 4andThe Battle of Polytopia. Musk was purportedly the first US-based druid to beatDiablo 4’s Abbatoir of Zir dungeon, and finished the season as the best in the country.
