About

You Should Kill Yourself… Now! refers to a viral photoshop of YouTuber and Street Fighter player Low Tier God channeling lightning paired with his quote which was directed at a purported stream sniper. The image macro gained viral popularity as a reaction and source material for memes and redraws on Twitter and iFunny in September 2021. In the following years, it also saw use as a copypasta known as the "Low Tier God Copypasta."

Origin

On numerous occasions during his streams,^[1] YouTuber and Street Fighter player Dalauan Low Tier God Sparrow told his stream snipers and opponents to kill themselves. One rant, said by Low Tier God during a Super Smash Bros. stream sometime before April 26th, 2020, gained particular recognition online (shown below).^[2]

You gonna stay on my dick until you die! You serve no purpose in life. Your purpose in life is being on my stream sucking on my dick daily! Your purpose is being in that chat blowing that dick daily! Your life is nothing! You serve zero purpose! You should kill yourself now! And give somebody else a piece of that oxygen and ozone layer, that's covered up so we can breathe inside this blue trapped bubble. Because what are you here for? To worship me? Kill yourself. I mean that, with a hundred percent. With a thousand percent.

Starting in April 2020, following Low Tier God's global ban from Capcom-related events following the player's history of offensive statements,^[3] humorous edits of the video were posted online, with users setting the clip to various music. For example, on April 26th, 2020, YouTube^[4] user Remy Dyte posted a version set to Sonic 3 and Knuckles soundtracks. The video gained over 74,600 views in one year. On May 4th, 2020, Twitter^[5] user @prowerrr_ posted a 15.ai meme in which SpongeBob narrated the rant, with the video gaining over 55,500 views, 1,400 retweets and 4,900 likes in one year (shown below).

Low Tier God Copypasta

After going viral online throughout 2021, Low-Tier God's speech then became a copypasta that was further spread across the internet. On December 11th, 2021, Redditor GlitchyVii posted the pasta to the /r/copypasta^[18] subreddit, where it received over 600 upvotes in roughly two years (seen below).
