    Not quite. PogChamp came from a Twitch emote for Gootecks from when he and Mike Ross did a silly ad playing pogs by dropping a fight stick on it.

    PogChamp was used a ton on Twitch (and other creators made their own versions of the face), until Gootecks kinda got problematic with his remarks on Jan 6th (and other stuff like alternative health and COVID disbelief). I think they replaced his face with a number of other reactions that also fit the bill?
