Ninja explains why he refuses to drop at The Agency in Fortnite Epic Games\/Mixer: NinjaPopular Mixer streamer Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins has revealed an \u201cinsane theory\u201d regarding Fortnite Chapter 2\u2019s henchmen, which plays a major part in why he refuses to drop at The Agency. Despite Fortnite\u2019s incredible popularity and the extent to which it aided Ninja\u2019s streaming dominance, the 28-year-old has never shied away from making his opinions heard about the game, while also criticizing those who repeatedly slam the game while continuing to play it. Among other things, he has taken issue with how fast lobbies empty in the game\u2019s current build, as well as arguing that the game\u2019s new map should be replaced with the original map. While he continues to play the game, he appears to be growing frustrated with a lack of innovation on Epic\u2019s behalf, who have become known for regular content drops and fresh updates. AI has been used by Fortnite to fill lobbies for some time now, a move that has proved controversial. This was extended to \u2018henchmen\u2019 in Chapter 2, AI bots who patrol specific areas of the map, including the infamous Agency. After trying to escape via a bin tunnel, Ninja was promptly killed by a henchman who hit multiple consecutive shots. However, the henchman then missed multiple shots on a different player, causing Blevins to become frustrated. \u201cAnd then the henchman just misses every shot on this guy?!\u201d he exclaimed. \u201cI\u2019m gonna say it \u2013 insane theory crap now \u2013 the henchmen are programmed differently, at a different level of aim assist strength on different players in the game.\u201d \u201cDude, I hop out of the dumpster, this guy sees me, he hits three shots in a row, I\u2019m dead,\u201d he continued. \u201cThe guy follows me and the henchmen misses like ten bullets in a row on him.\u201d As a top-level player, Ninja\u2019s theory states that the henchmen have better aim against him than the average player. While unproven and an \u201cinsane\u201d theory, Ninja clearly thinks the bots have been more punishing to him than others. \u201cSypher, we\u2019re never landing Agency again in regulars,\u201d he finished. \u201cEver. You hear me bro? Ever. Ever. I\u2019m not even kidding. We are never, ever landing near any AI in this game \u2013 ever. I\u2019m over it.\u201d He went on to explain that one henchman targeted him from the other side of the building, and killed him while he was being pushed by a different enemy. While Ninja\u2019s theory is certainly outlandish, it would go some way to explain why he struggles to overcome AI opponents, who are then easily outclassed by lower skill players. The move to add AI into normal Fortnite matches was controversial when it first happened and, despite months passing, it doesn\u2019t appear to be gaining favor with this particular Mixer star.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
