<div _ngcontent-c14 = "" innerhtml = "

It has been a long year for Tyler "Ninja" Blevins, whose Fortnite The gameplay has attracted millions of fans on Twitch and YouTube, earning sponsorship deals and guest spots on The Ellen Show, as well as a place on our 30 Under 30 list.

But with the newfound glory come the trolls discovered, and Ninja was attacked by an angry segment of the Fortnite community in what turned out well, something of a setting, and Epic released him from what the community accused him of doing.

As I understand the original story, Ninja was sorry to have been killed by a player, whom he accused of "sniping" (someone who was watching the flow of Ninja and was trying to to enter his game to deliberately kill him). The enemy player used an emoticon used by Ninja to confirm that he was being shot at (showing off for the camera), and Ninja reported it.

As a result, the player in question indicated that his account had been banned by Epic after his reporting, that he was not being shattered, but that he was just an innocent guy who had been killed by Ninja, implying that Ninja has the power to self-prohibit anyone because of his high-level relationships with Epic.

The community, mostly on Reddit and YouTube, savored the idea that Ninja had done something nasty and bad. Discussion threads and videos were widely shared about this incident. .

In the end, however, it turned out to be a complex scam. Epic delved into what exactly happened here and deduced that the original player was not banned as a result of the Ninja report, which had been rejected because There was not enough evidence, but the player then changed his name. from another forbidden player to do it look as Ninja's report had banned him.

The player in question was also caught joking about "ending Ninja's career" on a recorded Discord chat, so if you do not believe anything, it's pretty important in itself. Looks like this whole situation has been invented to imply that Ninja rage can hit random players at will, but that's not the case. In the end, all that Ninja had done "badly" was to annoy momentarily against a player that he thought was an elite sniper, who … it would seem that it actually acts of a sniper. But the community blew up the machine to an absurd degree to make Ninja as beautiful as possible. In Fortnite circles shouting "Ninja m banned me !!" is a recipe to attract attention, and that is clearly what happened here.

It's a difficult situation. Of course, Ninja is angry at other players from time to time, but the guy spends at least 60 hours a week, so you can find some clips where he will be a little heated. But the implications of the conspiracy theory here, namely that Ninja has special abilities in banning via a direct pipeline to Epic, are ridiculous, and clearly, this whole scenario was invented to try to hurt him.

Ninja has good times and bad times like everyone else, but this whole situation was absurd, and the community was wrong to get away with it as it did. But stuff like this is enough for drama-hungry redditors and YouTubers to last a month. Unfortunately, it seems inevitable that this will happen, and it will probably happen again.

I asked Ninja if he had one last thought about the incident. "Honestly, I clearly need to be even better so that such situations never happen," Ninja told me. "No trolling, no joke."
