Ninja Definitely Faked His Burnout for Views 

You open Twitch. It’s Ninja. You switch to TikTok. It’s Ninja again. You go to RU-vid. Tyler Ninja Fortnite Blevins. Your hands shake with anxiety as you turn off all your devices. Ninja is always there. Your TV, your microwave, your tamagotchi. Finally, after cutting off the electricity to your house and destroying every appliance you own, you attempt to sleep. Closing your eyes, his very unique blue hair and really cool mini fridge fades into view. You try to scream, but the only sound that comes out is the default dance music.

ninja's rifting quit has the same energy as when you tell a child that they have to brush their teeth or something and in retaliation they destroy the living room

I was backing out of my driveway and caught Ninja streaming via my car’s back up camera.

“He’s streaming on your grandma’s urn” protect Jordan at all costs

It's funny - his new streaming plan seems like a surefire way to get *genuine* burnout this time around

my favourite thing to do when i'm burned out is start 5 more things of the thing i'm already doing but it's different fonts and technicalities i have to figure out

My bet is that he didn't get the cut he wanted from Twitch so he's doing this to show Twitch that he's a strong independent man before going back and renegotiating

jarvis is slowly turning into a cool dude from 1978

It’s smart if he’s testing all platforms to see where his audience goes and negotiate a better deal for exclusivity. But why throw a tantrum instead of explaining that he’s taking a step away for a bit to figure this out? Weapon using mental health for views? Got it.

Auditioning platforms as a theory makes the most sense to me. If he is everywhere at once, then his followers have to choose where to watch him. If there is a clear favourite, that is good info for him.

man this is hilarious i love the sad boys, in 2006 i did not run over a family of 3 outside of the richmond virginia applebees after a night of heavy drinking at the applebees bar.

i would love to see him stream on everything at once and then every chat gets raided by a different person...imagine the chaos

All I know about Ninja I've learned from you guys and Drew. Thanks for keeping me up with the news I wouldn't care about otherwise (genuinely lol)

He's probably trying to fish out another exclusive deal, like trying to make your ex that just left you jealous 😂

this is so funny to me because JERMA knows more about streaming than ninja

After I read about the incident I just had a normal reaction of "people are dying, kim" sort of thing but after a day of thinking about it I started to think it was a pr move or a way to easily jump to a new platform without getting questions about it...and I honestly felt bad for being so cynical about the situation, especially if he really was in a bad space mentally. I guess I feel a bit better knowing I wasn't being too cynical, but it is still such a suck situation. Manipulating your fanbase of young kids just so you don't have to be honest or talk some about what you are wanting to do is seriously messed up. I'm sure a lot of his fans were really worried and upset but I guess it was worth it to him.

I think if Ninja promotes his donation link above all else, the goal is to cut out the share of revenue that whatever site he’s partnered with would have gotten. Personally I think he’s multi-streaming to build leverage and wait out a fat offer from whichever titan wants their share of the subs, bits, ect.

I expect him to stream on all the porn platforms, too. 😆 He said everywhere. Ninja, you said _everywhere_

So he’s basically trying the route of ‘my content is available on all streaming services’ as if this was a competition with Netflix, Disney, HBO etc he’s just on all of them?

okay i need to say something, jarvis looks so insanely good here. the short chain, the rings, the everything... please let me breathe, respectfully

the only explanation i'll accept is that he's trying to produce his own truman show

TikTok is extremely beneficial btw. Even as a small streamer i get like 100 views on tiktok and they come over to twitch to interact with chat.

looking forward to ninja’s stream on zoom

this video is 5 months old, how tf did i miss that lmao This is literally the first time i'm hearing of that

Like a toddler running away when their parents won’t give them what they want

6:50 So, people I know have these digital picture frames - even ones that can be synced with other people’s frames - and I immediately had a mental image of a ninja’s stream just hijacking everyone’s family photo albums. 😂

I really enjoy how when i left they were asking if he was faking his burnout, and now that I’m back they have definitively answered the question

You guys together always make my day better by making me genuinely laugh.

To be fair Ninjas gotta be so fuckin rich that continuing to stream has just got to be bc he enjoys it. He could just stop and probably be fine for the rest of his life. The burnout seems fake but also streaming hours at a time every day has to be tiresome

A post from the sad boyz makes me a happy boy

I just feel like he’s ALREADY doing good numbers and he’s on a website where most ppl watch streams. I can see wanting to get his hand on RU-vid and Instagram. But the other apps just seem like overkill. Edit oh wait he was already on RU-vid? Now I’m just confused 😂

It also just seems pointless to stream to some platforms, right now he has 5k viewers on RU-vid and 10k on twitch, while having 200 and 400 respectively on Twitter and Facebook. Like, it just seems pointless to presumably make your moderators look at those chats when there are so few people using those platforms.

im so glad yall are doing Sad Boyz again!

There is a certain logic to streaming on all platforms, if you get more viewers across a bunch of platforms you could probably negotiate higher sponsorship deals, even without twitch subs you can do donations in third party, you can even set up third party subscriptions with like extensions and shit if you're clever. There is also ad revenue to consider, it can ad up to make more sense than you'd think, it's just no one of ninjas size has tried it before, this is usually the strat of small streamers desperate for growth

Damn, I never realized how much bigger jordan was than jarvis.

I'm waiting to see him put the crying Kaneki icon and change his bio to something emo like a dramatic teenager who just got dumped on Amino or some shit

THE BOYZ ARE BACK

omg the dane cook comparison is SPOT on

SAD BOYZ????? ARE BACK???????? SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU TWO AGAIN OMG THIS PODCAST GOT ME THROUGH SO MANY SHITTY SHIFTS

Hey boyyys thanks for the vid ur awesome keep up the good work!!!!!

With a few weeks hindsight, I bet ninja knew the 50-50 split was coming and that’s why he did all this

IMO this is a case of Main Character syndrome where he thought more people would care about the whole meltdown and what he was going to do. In reality all this did was limit his own income and divide his audience onto multiple platforms. I'm not sure why you'd want to do either of those, but I also get that he doesn't particularly need a lot of money considering how well off he has already become. Dividing his audience is the main factor here that I don't understand. The whole point of having a chatroom in your stream is so that people can communicate with you, and in-turn communicate with each other during the livestream, which in turn creates a fun experience for mostly everyone involved. Say he created a program to consolidate the chats for himself so he could more easily see every comment, that doesn't help the chatters which will hurt their motivation to come back considering less people will be chatting. Overall I'd say this was a Ninja/10, on par with Braless wife bringing me a sandwich.

I forgot he existed until now tbh lol

Good morning Sad Boyz!

With drama or investments being the exception; Internet fame is so crazy to watch because it's such a shadow of what the internet has become- specifically internet fame. Ninja, the biggest and most well known streamer to exist so far- could switch to furniture store ads tomorrow and nobody would bat an eye. If Micheal Jordan, the first common place name in his feild switched to doing that, half way into the first decade of his career, people would have lost their minds in disbelief. Eventually this could change. But I bet you my last two cents the internet as a whole will emulate whatever 'celebrity' it produces.

If your gonna fake burnout, go way over the top, right? Throw a controller, break a camera, storm off. It's like storming off and closing the door gently

Good lighting Jordan. Jarvis gives Dad energy, I want him to take me for ice cream lol.

god I can't stand ninja. I try not to hate people just for being annoying but good lord.

I had to pause this ep, unfortunately, even though I love your content Jordan and Jarvis and will still watch it in general for sure!!! I couldn't watch further after Jordan said that Ninja's behaviour was like someone being cut off in traffic and saying "well, I'll just k*ll myself then," the joke being that this wouldn't happen for real, so Ninja must be faking. It was a bit too close to home for me - sometimes when you're in a really bad headspace a tiny trigger like that can push you over the edge, even when the real cause of what you're feeling is much bigger. Sorry for the heavy comment! And if I'm lacking context - I just couldn't watch any more than I did. Still big respect to you both 🙏

I almost thought this was a reupload

sometimes y'all don't even sound like you're talking to each other, just sliding right by

i love jordan’s ‘willem defussy’ hat

You are both glowing

The boys are back!

I watched the last video about Ninja and now I get an early viewing on this one! Guess it's time to subscribe.

Jarvis called it 💀

THEY BE LOOKING GOOD AS HELL

Jarvis looking extra ripped here, kinda swole even

I got the most fckin horrifying ad ever while trying to sleep

Wait he didn't know you could stream wtih OBS? Isn't that it's primary purpose? I thought OBS is the reccomended software for new streamers.

This could be a Mr. Beast clickbait ‘I streamed on EVERY PLATFORM for an ENTIRE WEEK!!! (you won’t believe what happened!!!) | (not clickbait)’ and the thumbnail is all the different chats drowning him

Ninja coming to Gas Station TV.

Ninja is gonna dig a hole he can't crawl out of with all the drama he gets himself into.

I am shocked!

I honestly forgot about Ninja

Is this from the next episode of sad boyz?

I hate how much I love Jordan

everytime ninja will be going live half the countries power is shut off

No one has pointed out how ninja rage quits because of rifts while having a rift in his inventory

Ninja is Ryan from The Office. Lol!

I wanna say the caption for this video took me by surprise. I really do

Lol someone is definitely in the room with Jarvis 2:43

which sad boyz episode is this from?

This duude….🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Why would an audience member care that you are live everywhere? Im not going to watch you more than one place. That detail is just for your business plan.

Omg I didn’t realise I was ealry

19:37 I mean, to be fair my wifi connection isn't good enough to watch a twitch stream, but youtube streams are fine.

This is why I only like CaptainSparkles… no drama.

Wtf where’s all this content come from?

I want to be Neenja

i think he unpartnered so that he could stream to YT at the same time & maximize views/money

Honestly, not letting me skip 20 second ads is kinda Ait lmao

off topic but jarvis is really pretty

why are yall talking about drew gooden, did he do something problematic? :/

lmfao ninjas new icon should be a rift to go.

Thanks for Jarvis and Jarvis Clone for exposing this weird Ninja dude🙏🏼😫

Didn’t he also fake a speed run or something?

Moments like these make me really respect Hasan who just says he loves what he does and has no interest in constant growth and doing ~the new thing~

I thought he died of ligma

Thumbs up and an additional comment to beat the algorithm. Thanks for the video! 👍

Hai besties

I made it😎

I love obs and I'm no chad

Careful what you say or overlord gates will come and get you.
