After Cenat lost his crown to Ironmouse in September, he quickly organized a follow-up to his popular Mafiaathon event in an attempt to win it back. Mafiaathon 2 launched on November 1st as a month-long, 24/7 feed for fans to keep up with the streamer’s antics and, more importantly, keep the live-updated, ever-present subscriber count on-screen rises. The tragedy occurred early on, when Cenat’s house was destroyed and Twitch briefly banned his channel, but the hiccups did little to curb the enthusiasm of his voracious fan base.
As reported by DexertoThe stream featured TikTok creator NPC Miles Morales taking the reins while Cenat slept, a mock wedding, a tour of Snoop Dogg’s Los Angeles mansion, a video call with Serena Williams (hosted by McDonald’s for some reason), and more Music from former Migos frontman Quavo and performances from a rotating cast of musicians including Kodak Black, GloRilla and DDG over the past two weeks. Someday, sooner iCarly Star Miranda Cosgrove showed up to support.

Cenat and Ironmouse apparently remained friendly when exchanging subscriber data. After Ironmouse broke the record, Cenat congratulated the Vtuber
Regarding this latest development: Ironmouse joked about the possibility of Cenat reaching 1 million subscribers during the month-long Mafiaathon 2 livestream.
Both streamers have used their record-breaking streams to raise money for humanitarian causes. Ironmouse has broken the record in a fundraiser for the Immune Deficiency Foundation, and 20% of the money raised in Cenat’s current stream will be used to open a school in Nigeria.
