Two days later, on August 7, Ninja hosted anotherFortnitestreamer named Phattpantz.

Calling Ninja “The Man, The Myth, The Legend,” Phattpantz also said that he’d been knocked for six by it. Phattpantz now has more than 45,000 followers on the platform, while SoloQ_Jokerr now has more than 25,000 followers.
SoloQ_Jokerr and Phattpantz aren’t the only streamers to have had their fortunes affected by Ninja’s big move to Mixer. SeveralFortnitestreamers on Twitch, such asFortnitesolos world champion Bugha, Shroud, former Faze Clan member Tfue, Shroud, Myth, and Symfuhny have all gained thousands of new Twitch followers since Ninja left. While Ninja’s departure has prompted more than one million people to start using Mixer, many people who are happy with Twitch have been looking for new streamers to fill the space left behind by theFortniteplayer with the multi-colored hair.
Ninja’s move to Mixer has changed things for many content creators, but it may just be the start. Other Twitch streamers, such as the controversial figureDr. Disrespect has entertained a move to Mixeras has one, anonymous streamer in Twitch’s “top 5”. If these streamers do choose to join Mixer, it could mean more potential followers for small Mixer streamers like Phattpantz and SoloQ_Jokerr.
