AUSTIN, TEXAS: Felix Lengyel aka xQc, the live streamer who moved to Kick from Twitch, lately made headlines regarding his alleged $100 million Kick deal. He was seen enthusiastically embarking on a quest for Magic in MTG's 'Lord of the Rings' in a recent stream in pursuit of the notoriously rare One Ring card, reportedly worth $2 million.

MTG refers to Magic: The Gathering, a tabletop and digital collectible card game created by Richard, a renowned mathematician, inventor, and game designer. Keep reading to gain further insights into xQc's quest for the MTG's 'Lord of the Rings' card.

xQc is willing to spend $2 million to find the One Ring card

xQc has been recently documenting his pursuit of the elusive One Ring card, which is worth $2 million. During one of his recent live streams, he showcased his initial step of purchasing five Collector Booster boxes, each priced at $499.99, containing 12 packs of Collector Boosters respectively. Just from this single shopping trip, xQc's expenditure amounted to around $2,500, a sum that surpasses most people's expectations for such a pursuit. However, the expenses only continued to escalate as he moved forward in the quest to get the rarest of cards.

The Kick stream then splurged on another booster box, adding a further $499.99 to the tally. Approximately one hour into the stream, xQc was joined by some friends who presented him with a large box. Inside, there are 13 additional Collector Booster boxes, further augmenting the minimum total expenditure on xQc's quest for the serialized One Ring to at least $8,999.82. Despite examining approximately 3,240 cards, he was unable to locate the elusive One Ring card. But he did buy some additional packs in the game to find the rarest card that's apparently worth $2 million.

'Gaming Gollum'

When the clip of xQc trying to find the precious MTG' 'Lord of the Rings' card was uploaded on YouTube, his followers took no time to comment about their opinion on his quest. One user said, "Unfortunately even if X did pull it, he would've been forced to rip it in half and give the other half to the ?, making the card worthless ?. That's a truthful statement." Another user said, "He's actually became the Gaming Gollum.. the ring, it calls to him. HE IS HIM," alluding to the character of Gollum from 'The Lord of the Rings'. One fan jokingly stated, "6:00 no way they made an adept card?," hinting at xQc's ex-girlfriend. "X a real one for jsut tossing homeboy a case. money aside he knew it would make buddies day. keep on keepin on king juicer," wrote one giving the streamer hope to continue in his journey. Another stated, "Could you imagine this dude actually got it ?," imagining what would happen if xQc managed to grab the rare card, while one more just stated, "I cant believe he actually got it! This is insane!"
