YouTube personality, Mr Beast is back at it with another round of his entertaining live trivia competition, Creator Games! The competition this year brought together some of the most well-known digital stars to ultimately determine the wittiest winner among them. Lying on the line is an incredible reward of $300,000 for the participators to win and intentionally donate to their subscribers along with the title of ‘The Smartest Creator in the World’.
The Game streamed on October 18th and featured some of the biggest names in the online entertainment world including Charli and Dixie D’Amelio, KSI, Addison Rae, MKBHD, Bretman Rock, Yes Theory, Safiya Nygaard, Rosanna Pansino and many more!
Beast changed up the competition this year by introducing a “Wheel of Games” that will decide every matchup game between the participants. Tons of twists and challenges came with The Wheel of Games ranging from trivia to geography to spelling bees and beyond which truly kept the contestants as well as the viewers on the edge of their seats.
The biggest brains who made it to the finals were none other than ZHC and The D’Amelio Sisters, Charli and Dixie D’Amelio. To make the competition fair, Mr Beast only allowed one of the sisters to take on the final with ZHC to which Dixie took the lead and ultimately won. Although Charli and Dixie were the ones participating, their parents also joined them on screen to cheer them on!

As the famous TikTok personalities, Charli and Dixie, pulled off an incredible victory, they expressed how they were going to put the money to good use. “We’re going to do something on our family channel just to give back to the people who really need it,” Dixie said.
However, Mr Beasts’ fans found the competition to be unfair claiming that the D’Amelio family competing together in the first round gave the famous TikTok sisters an unfair advantage. Fans complained as they threw accusations that Charli and Dixie “cheated” with their parents’ help along with rumors that they were using their phones to find answers or were provided it off-screen.
Understanding the valid criticisms and rumors, Mr Beast took to Twitter to address the situation. “I see some people mad that I let multiple people compete on a single team in the trivia tournament! Honestly, the tournament was just for fun and to bring the community together and I’d appreciate if you were to get mad at anyone, get mad at me. It was my decision lol.”, he tweeted.

He continued, “The criticism is noted and I’ll definitely keep all the teams the same size next time! 100% my b.”
In the recent past, Mr Beast hosted a Rock, Paper, Scissors Tournament with a reward of $250,000, which Mathew ‘Nadeshot’ Haag happily secured. This year’s Creators Games 2 brought in over 900,000 live viewers which surpassed the numbers from the first edition.
With over 45 million subscribers, Mr Beast is popular for giving away large sums of money and creating content out of it. Taking into account the sheer success of Mr Beasts’ recent games and tournaments, it is most likely that he will venture into hosting similar events in the future.
