Markiplier calls out Takis
In his latest YouTube video titled, “Takis is Dead to Me”, Markiplier jokingly shaded the popular snack brand Takis for sponsoring people such as Ninja and Charli D’Amelio over himself.
The video detailed an emotional Markiplier crying over Takis, dramatically trolling, telling his fans he needed to “move on” from trying to get the latter to sponsor him.
Markiplier then trolled Takis, claiming he couldn’t even stand to look at the chip bag, comparing it to everyone’s least favorite vegetable.
He then officially announced the “new sponsorship of the Markiplier corporation,” aka his new favorite chip brand, Doritos Dinamita, which closely resembles Takis.
Afterward, the YouTube veteran went on a snack binge.
Markiplier then ended the video by throwing shade at Takis for not sponsoring him.
