Ninja reveals why he doesn\u2019t care about his sub count anymore Ninja\/TwitchUber-popular Twitch streamer Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins has opened up about his recent stint of not streaming, explaining why he thinks it\u2019s a good thing to take a break from the spotlight and why he doesn\u2019t care too much about his sub count anymore. Before returning for a quick nine-hour stream on January 28, it had been a week since Ninja had been live on Twitch \u2013 running only one rerun in that time. While his fans missed his daily streams, the 27-year-old had been taking a break by spending time on vacation with his wife \u2013 Jessica \u2018JGhosty\u2019 Blevins \u2013 as well as his parents. However, he did have time to return, briefly, to play some Fortnite with his pals Tim \u2018TimTheTatMan\u2019 Betar and Jack \u2018Courage\u2019 Dunlop. Upon his brief return to streaming, Ninja spoke about taking time away from Twitch, stating: \u201cSo, I\u2019m just really so much more relaxed man. After having the year that I did, I don\u2019t stress out too much about sub count anymore, like, at all. I know what I\u2019m capable of when I have the time to stream as much as possible. You know, doing those twelve to fourteen-hour streams.\u201d Read More: Full list of \u2018Team Internet\u2019 nominees for 2019 Shorty Awards,\u2019 ft. Shane Dawson, Ninja, MrBeast, & more – \u201cThere are other things that are coming up right now. I didn\u2019t live my life last year man, I was a slave to the stream grind and I don\u2019t regret it whatsoever but it\u2019s nice to be able to do just a little bit of R&R.\u201d It\u2019s a slight change in attitude from Ninja who admitted in his ESPN interview last September that he had worries about not streaming \u2013 especially when it came to doing something big. \u201cWhen I\u2019m not streaming, I have time to reflect on all the growth, and I don\u2019t like that,\u201d Ninja told ESPN\u2019s Elaine Teng in his ESPN The Magazine interview. \u201cI\u2019m like, \u2018I haven\u2019t played a celebrity in a while. I haven\u2019t done something big in a while. Is it because I\u2019m slowing down?\u2019\u201d More recently, Ninja stated on stream \u2013 on January 15 \u2013 that had become annoyed by people looking for the \u2018next big thing\u2019 on Twitch, even though he, at the time, had been sitting pretty at the top. No longer being too concerned about his sub count is certainly a change for Ninja but he has achieved more than many streamers ever will \u2013 and he seems pretty happy in doing so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
