Natalia NatiMagical did it on the air and flew ban for 2 months [FILM]

Natalia Magical surprised everyone by performing a live drug test. After a controversial stream, the streamer got a two-month ban on Kick.

Drug test on the air – how did this happen?

It all started at the Prime MMA conference, where Natalia's rival, Marianna Schreiber, publicly suggested conducting drug testing. To prove his innocence and respond to media pressure, The Magicals decided to do research – unfortunately, the whole was held in front of viewers, without any inhibitions or interruption in transmission.

The course of the controversial stream

• Natalia urinates in a cup on a stream
• Viewers observed the whole process
• She then showed the test on camera to overturn Schreiber's allegations

This sequence sparked huge emotions and immediate reactions from the Kick community and viewers of other platforms.

Kick's decision – ban and internet reactions

Kick platform is famous for its greater freedom for creators than Twitch or YouTube, but even here there are limits. Magicala's behavior resulted in both Natalia and Daniel being banned for two months (leading the account together). Although the official reason has not been given, the link to the drug test on the air seems obvious.

Image and career implications

• Loss of access to the profitable platform for a minimum of 60 days
• Speculations as to whether they will be reinstated or moved elsewhere
• High media and community interest

Prime MMA and conflict with Marianna Schreiber – background of the affair

The Prime MMA Conference 14 was an arena of numerous media clashes of patoinfluencers. It was there that Marianna Schreiber pressed her future rival to perform tests "for the presence of known means". Public tensions were the announcement of what was to happen on the Internet.

How sports and controversy drive popularity

• The celebrity fights attract a huge audience
• Moving conflicts to the Internet drives both sides
• Such situations fall into the pathostreaming trend that promotes shocking behavior

Pathstreaming and platform challenges – new Internet?

Kick became popular because it allowed more slack than traditional social media. However, media scandals and border violations are increasingly forcing the platform to respond decisively in order not to lose the image or interest of advertisers.

Studies show that up to 15% of influencers experience temporary blockades, and media scandals increase interest and reach – but short term.

The situation of the Magicians and Kick's decision clearly show that the limits of freedom on the Internet are shifting – and although controversy generates displays, the pressure on platforms is constantly increasing, however, to respond decisively to breaking social standards. It can be expected that further such actions will be punished more quickly, as advertisers and regulators put stronger conditions for cooperation on streaming platforms.
