xqcB

xqcB is typically used to express surprise, shock, confusion, or disbelief in chat. The 'B' suffix in xQc's emote naming convention often denotes variations of expressions or reactions. This particular emote conveys a sense of being taken aback or bewildered by something happening on stream. It's commonly spammed when something unexpected, confusing, or mildly shocking occurs during a broadcast. The emote can also be used ironically or humorously to exaggerate reactions to mundane events.

xqcB is a personal emote from the Twitch streamer xQc (Félix Lengyel), one of the most popular streamers on the platform. The emote features xQc's face with a surprised or shocked expression, often appearing distorted or stretched. It was created as part of xQc's custom emote collection for his subscribers and became available in the mid-to-late 2010s as his channel grew in popularity. xQc rose to prominence as a professional Overwatch player before transitioning to full-time variety streaming, and his emotes became widely recognized across Twitch culture.
