Ninja

Ninja (Tyler “Ninja” Blevins) is a U.S. creator and livestreamer who began his public streaming activity in 2011, after earlier years competing in Halo starting in 2009. His on-air style blends high tempo, humor, and esports discipline across shooters and battle-royale formats, with Fortnite shaping his identity while he periodically rotates into titles like Valorant and Warzone. As of 2025 he remains active on Twitch, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and X, balancing live shows with edited pieces and frequent cross-appearances with other creators.

His mainstream breakthrough crystallized in March 2018, when he streamed Fortnite on Twitch with Drake; Travis Scott and JuJu Smith-Schuster later joined, placing him firmly on the pop-culture map beyond core gaming circles. That same year he won the E3 Fortnite Pro-Am alongside producer Marshmello, a charity-driven showcase that amplified his visibility through a competitive format. These intersections with music and sports figures became signature milestones frequently discussed across social media.

In 2019 he signed an exclusive deal with Mixer; after the platform shut down he returned to Twitch in 2020 on a multi-year agreement and, in 2022, announced simultaneous streaming across multiple platforms. His brand also expanded with the Red Bull-built “Ultimate Stream Room,” a studio installation that raised production values and behind-the-scenes storytelling, reinforcing a professional and versatile on-screen presence.
