The extremely popular streamer, Jeremy "DisguisedToast" Wang surprisingly returned to his Twitch.tv channel this week, despite having signed an exclusivity deal with Facebook Gaming roughly six months ago.
DisguisedToast simply started broadcasting on his Twitch.tv channel, chatting to fans for over two hours. This stream peaked at 24,532 viewers. However, this isn't a full return to the Twitch.tv platform for Jeremy "DisguisedToast" Wang.

DisguisedToast explained this was meant to be a "small return" and not a big, permanent thing. One of the biggest reasons for returning is Facebook Gaming’s lack of support for non-gaming related broadcasts.
So how did DisguisedToast return to Twitch despite the exclusivity deal? Well, it was actually quite simple, according to the famous streamer:
“Nothing like this has ever happened before… but I’m allowed to. I said to Facebook ‘Hey, think I might be able to do a stream on Twitch?’ and they replied: ‘Toast, you go get ‘em! You go get ‘em!' That’s been nice.”
DisguisedToast continued by explaining that he is very happy on Facebook Gaming, and if he had the chance to re-do the deal, he would do it again with 100% certainty.
While he can still stream on his Twitch.tv channel, the streaming platform has stripped his "verified" status, partnership benefits, and viewers cannot subscribe to his channel.
So when can expect the next DisguisedToast Twitch.tv stream, which will undoubtedly be fun, without any actual gaming due to the Facebook Gaming exclusivity deal? Well, we simply don't know.
However, DisguisedToast did state "well's see how it goes", explaining that it could be a monthly or a weekly thing. The point of his return to Twitch was simply to "say hi to everyone".
