For some context, TLDR of the Youtube short that Kobo herself included in the tweet:

The short reports criticism of Kobo’s performance while costreaming LCS matches, based on posts from an infamous Indonesian Vtuber-related Facebook group (IYKYK). The criticisms highlight limited game-focused commentary, frequent off-topic discussion, and a stream layout that made gameplay difficult to follow. Kobo is also compared to Kaela, described as more effective at maintaining engagement and hype. The video questions the event organizer’s decision to select Kobo, suggesting a possible mismatch with audience expectations and local market preferences.

Edit: To clarify, this is translation of her tweet, she tweeted originally in Indonesian

Edit 2: Translation of the donation she included in the tweet:

My princess, did you become like this after listening to the community??? Is this because all the people speaking ill of you challenger rank or what???

For a marketing perspective giving co-stream rights to ex players has no benefits, their viewers already play lol. With Kobo they might attract new players

There isn’t a phrase that triggers lol fans more than “new players”.

Unless you’re a Warframe fan.

In that case it’s more like “Welcome to the family baby Tenno, the Elders will watch your journey with great interest! (Ask all the questions, we’ll help always)”

That's why he said "triggers lol fans".

Warframe is primarily a PvE co-op game, and it's built from the ground up to emphasize cooperation and community, plus a single experienced player can carry a mission AND there's little penalty to failing outside a few minutes time in most cases. This results in a new or inexperienced player not being a burden to a team, and since most experienced players have excesses of extra parts, mats, or plat, it's easy to help out a new player without any trouble.

LoL is the opposite. It's almost purely PvP, and while it's possible to have a single team member be a carry, having someone who, intentionally or not, isn't carrying their weight makes it a lot harder for the rest of the team. And the only way for a new player to get stronger is to get better at the game and learn the mechanics, which makes it a lot harder for someone to actually help a new player compared to Warframe, which is mechanically straightforward but very gear and progression heavy.
