HemomalVT's Exposé Triggers Wave of Sykkuno Allegations: A Record of the First Nine Days
From a single post calling the streamer a 'cheater and manipulator' to peer reactions from xQc and Valkyrae, here is what was documented between April 10 and April 18.
On April 10, 2026, a VTuber known as HemomalVT published allegations against streamer Sykkuno, describing him as a 'cheater' and 'manipulator,' according to reporting by High On Films and Sportskeeda. The post marked the start of nine days of cascading claims that would draw in additional accusers, peer commentary, and a separate clarification from HemomalVT herself before Sykkuno said anything publicly.
The Allegations
Within 24 hours of HemomalVT's initial post, multiple outlets — including Sportskeeda and The Times of India — reported that additional women had come forward with claims of manipulation against Sykkuno. On April 12, BollywoodShaadis reported that Sykkuno and his then-girlfriend had attempted to reconcile prior to HemomalVT's post, and that the girlfriend had made discoveries during that reconciliation period, though the outlet did not specify their nature. Separately on April 12, BollywoodShaadis resurfaced an account attributed to a former girlfriend identified only as Lena, who had reportedly characterized Sykkuno as 'fake, toxic, manipulative' approximately six years prior to the current controversy. On April 18, inkl reported that a separate accuser, identified as Icelyn, had made additional allegations, expanding the scope of the original exposé.
The Clarification
On April 14, inkl reported that HemomalVT had moved to address viral claims that her allegations implicated minors, characterizing that interpretation as a 'confusion.' The outlet described the post as an attempt to clear the record on that specific element, though the substance of the original cheating and manipulation allegations remained unaddressed by either party at that point.
Peer Reactions
On April 11, Sportskeeda reported that streamer xQc commented on the allegations, characterizing the situation as, in his phrasing, '#MeToo bullsh**ting,' without elaborating further on stream. On the same date, Sportskeeda reported that Valkyrae described the allegations as 'disappointing.' Neither peer indicated they had direct knowledge of the events described. For the record, Sykkuno did not respond publicly to any of the April allegations until June 4, 2026, when he called his past conduct 'horrible' in a stream breaking his silence.
What's Documented
The claims published between April 10 and April 18 originated with HemomalVT and were amplified by additional accusers and mainstream entertainment outlets. None of the allegations have been adjudicated in any formal setting, and all claims remain attributed to their respective sources.
What Happens Next
Outstanding questions as of June 14 include whether HemomalVT or Icelyn will respond to Sykkuno's June 4 public statement characterizing his conduct as 'horrible,' whether any of the other women who came forward will issue follow-up statements, and whether Sykkuno's ongoing Twitch return will prompt any further peer commentary beyond what Pokimane offered on June 12.
