Twitch Selects a Permanent Replacement for Its 'PogChamp' Emote


Twitch has selected a new image to replace its iconic PogChamp emote: a Komodo dragon.
As The Verge reports, Twitch removed the original emote on Jan. 6. That day, pro-Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol, and Ryan "Gootecks" Gutierrez—who inspired the PogChamp emote—made inflammatory comments about the attack on Twitter.
“We’ve made the decision to remove the PogChamp emote following statements from the face of the emote encouraging further violence after what took place in the Capitol today,” Twitch said at the time. “We want the sentiment and use of Pog to live on—its meaning is much bigger than the person depicted or image itself—and it has a big place in Twitch culture. However, we can’t in good conscience continue to enable use of the image.”
