In June she was ranked 62, meaning she climbed almost 50 spots in a single month. Part of Nadia\u2019s rise in popularity is that she is a skilled Warzone competitor. Her streams consist of her getting many wins and taking on multiple opponents at once. She is particularly popular on TikTok where she has now garnered over 750k followers. Her videos typically consist of having to achieve a certain number of kills or wins per stream. And while many of her fans love how empowered she is and her out and proud confidence as a female gamer, some viewers have taken to trying to spread hate and sexism instead. One of Nadia\u2019s recent TikTok clips showed off some impressive gameplay where she managed to kill multiple opponents thanks to some quick shooting and fast maneuvers. In response to this clip, however, one user decided to change the gameplay footage to a game simulation of someone washing dishes.
