Streamer Nicolas "Nico" Kenn De Balinthazy, aka Sneako, who has recently attracted a lot of attention, has a reputation for making outrageous remarks. Prior to switching to Rumble, which Andrew Tate also uses, he was connected to YouTube and Twitch. He is currently a full-time streamer on Rumble.
Despite having previously worked as a member of MrBeast's camera crew, Nico has since established himself as a lone creator with hundreds of thousands of fans who are most familiar with him due to his online disputes and controversies. Here are YouTube streamer's 5 most controversial feuds so far.

KSI or iShowSpeed: Which influencer is richer and has higher net worth?
1. Feud with KSI
Although Nico and KSI have often fought in the past, their most recent altercation took place in March of this year during Nico's continuing conflict with Charlie. Nico's refusal to accept the challenge was mocked by KSI on Twitter, who also made light of Nico's alleged lack of fighting prowess.
"I’m not scared, I’m actually being sued by him right now for “emotional distress.” It’s a frivolous lawsuit but I got a good lawyer taking care of it. But that’s all I can say about it for now," Sneako responded.
2. Clash with MoistCr1TiKaL
Sneako and Charlie aka MoistCr1TiKaL clashed in March 2023. He insulted Charlie and his girlfriend, which sparked Charlie to reply with a video in which he called Nico a "c***old," sparking the argument.
Nico kept insulting Charlie on Twitter after the event. However, when Charlie published a second reaction video in which he mocked and humiliated Nico for his ignorance, tensions between the two came to a head.
3. Conflict with Destiny
Nico has also clashed with Steven ‘Destiny’, a YouTube broadcaster with radically different views from Nico's own. While Sneako promotes the ‘Bugatti lifestyle’ and is a fervent admirer of Andrew Tate, Destiny is the complete opposite. The two have frequently engaged in conflict while streaming.
Steven opposed Nico's opinions on collecting Bugattis and women in August 2022, which led to one of their first noteworthy disagreements. Steven countered that Sneako was only switching from one to another and wasn't actually breaking out of the herd mentality.
4. Calls out Kai Cenat
Kai Cenat, a well-known Twitch broadcaster, is number four on the list. To put things in perspective, Nico criticized a number of streamers, including xQc, JiDion, YourRAGE, Adin Ross, and Kai himself, alleging that despite previously supporting them, none of them watched his reaction video to his continuing dispute with MoistCr1TiKaL.
In addition to saying that he is not a frequent user of Rumble, where Nico originally streams, Kai Cenat confirmed that he was not aware of the reaction video.
5. Argument with JiDion
Jidon Armani Adams, commonly known as JiDion, participated in a podcast conversation where Nico was asked for his opinions on mental health in August 2022. Nico countered by saying that those who make content on mental health and express their feelings in streams or videos are only looking for fan approval.
Later, Jidon brought up the tragic death by suicide of Etika, a well-known YouTuber and Twitch broadcaster who had struggled with mental illness. Jidon disagreed with Nico's earlier assertion and emphasized that Etika's troubles were real mental health concerns rather than just a cry for attention.
