    Love how ninja is trashing juju about trying to stream with a mac. I was sure ninja would be too star struck to be ninja tonight.

    Ninja just shot a grenade off the ramp he was on, shot a guy to down him, then the grenade landed on the guy to eliminate him. It was probably my favorite thing he's done in fortnite.

    Ninja having to baby sit Drake and Travis are making it difficult, Juju isn't terrible though. They are getting stream sniped like crazy.

    I'm with the popular opinion. Ninja is good as fuck, but god damn he is so cringe. I can't imagine how he was before this. The better than everyone else attitude doesn't go over very well either.

    No, it's spring break

    Part of the reason Ninja was able to do 600k at 1am on a weekday

    And kids are watching in school. Ninja's stream is always in sub mode but in streams where sub mode is disabled you see someone say "watching you in school" 100x an hour

    Gotcha. It’s still kinda shitty to diminish someone’s success as only attracting 12 year olds and i don’t even watch(like) ninja (Faulkner).

    You think Drake, juju, and Travis all just picked some random streamer to squad up with?

    I'm not a big fan of ninja the personality, but he's extremely successful at what he does. It's certainly not just 12 year olds watching him. Juju doesn't make as much $$ as ninja.

    hey people who have all these twitch prime subs. pick some random streamer and give them that free sub instead of just giving another $3 to someone that is going to clear 2 million this month. even if you never go back into that stream it will mean a lot more to that person.

    Yeah but why should I care about that random streamer? I'm not about to 'sub' to any streamer, but if I was it wouldn't be to some random dude who I'm never going to watch again.

    then give it to someone else that you may watch, idk. just saying whats the point of using that twitch prime sub on a guy like ninja? you aren't going to use his chat because its nothing but spamming emojis, so find someone else to use it on.

    Nah, I would rather support someone I actually watch/find entertaining instead of performing a quasi-charity act. If someone is a good streamer, they'll get noticed eventually.

    My prime sub goes to xQc. He's entertaining and toxic, and most likely suffering from moderate to severe mental health issues. I would fear for his livelihood if he wasn't such a popular streamer.

    I do agree with this although my prime sub has lapsed plenty of times when I go a while without watching twitch. In those cases, I usually just sub to whoever I'm watching that day

    I think you get streamer specific emotes (I don't use the chat, so this may not be true for prime subs), and no commercials. Some streams have sub games/discords/communities.

    honestly. you get pretty much nothing. its a form of donating. if you really want to break it down, you get access to that streamer's specific emojis. For the bigger streamers, thats usually the only perk. The smaller ones do more for their subs but that's all person specific.
