When one thinks of Fortnite, some of the biggest names in livestreaming come to mind, as the popular battle royale has dominated viewership charts on Twitch for nearly the past two years. However, several of those same streamers have recently found a reborn interest in Minecraft, the age-old classic that will seemingly never really fade away. In light of this, Ninja has been faced with a lot of fans and interested viewers asking him to try out Minecraft for himself on stream, but the Mixer star hasn\u2019t given into that temptation yet.

However, I don\u2019t know. Because that last YouTube video with the squad fills did really well.\u201d \u201cSo if I start making dedicated content to YouTube after I get off stream, I feel like my YouTube channel will see a growth in views again, and I like my views. I\u2019ll be your light in shining Fortnite. While everyone is else is building blocks and dying to creepers.\u201d Video starts at 0:37 mark for mobile users. Now that we know where Ninja stands on possibly streaming Minecraft, it\u2019s also worth gauging how his fanbase feels about the potential change in his schedule. His wife, Jessica Blevins, recently put out a poll on Twitter in order to see how many of their followers would actually want to watch him stream Minecraft, and the results were pretty telling. 67% of the 183,000+ who voted said they would want to watch the former Halo-pro stream Minecraft, a very convincing statistic that can end up making the difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ninja explains why he\u2019s staying on Fortnite while everyone\u2019s playing Minecraft Ninja &#8211; Mixer \/ MicrosoftWith many top streamers recently featuring Minecraft more on their content channels, Mixer superstar Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2018 Blevins has given insight as to why he\u2019s sticking to Fortnite Battle Royale.
