Ninja May Be Heading to YouTube

After the announcement that Mixer would be shutting down at the end of July, and move to Facebook Gaming, many wondered where superstar streamer Tyler “Ninja” Blevins would end up.

Some asked if he would make his way back to Twitch, where he reached superstar level and earned millions before defecting to Mixer, and rumors even surfaced that he may be teaming up with other streamers to form a new platform.

Well, we may have gotten a hint about his next move, as Ninja publicly posted a “test” stream to his YouTube account, but it seems to be an accident as the stream was posted without a thumbnail, title, or updated description, according to Fortnite leaker HYPEX.

On Monday, Ninja’s wife and manager Jessica Blevins stated on Twitter that Ninja something exciting was coming this week, which many expected would be the official announcement.

Now, it appears that Ninja may be announcing his new deal with YouTube.

YouTube has been making waves in their battle for streaming supremacy with Twitch, who currently sits convincingly at the top. Over the past year YouTube has inked 100 Thieves content creators CouRage and Valkyrae to deals, and now may be on the verge of announcing the addition of Ninja as well.
