Ninja has been looking into the state of Twitch and is not happy with what he has seen, as he expressed in a July 17 rant, lamenting the streaming of a seemingly bygone era.
Why Ninja's Career Died (Fortnite)
The Twitch star started streaming as a hobbyist in 2011, but eventually turned it into a full-time job and exploded in popularity. Many associate Ninja with Fortnite, as it has been a major part of his success from 2017 until now. Even now, during the stream where Ninja talks about missing Twitch, he continues to play Fortnite.
His claims in July came after a viewer tried to provoke Ninja by writing, “First Sketch, then Ninja.” The Twitch star immediately pushed back against the idea, saying, “It seems like people want to cancel anyone at any time.”
He then added, “every day there’s something new,” before noting that no one of note has ever really asked for the input on the streamers’ personal lives that viewers, social media people, and colleagues seem so eager to give — especially with regard to the recent Sketch drama that took the internet by storm.
