Streamer Left In Stitches After Reading About 'Admitting Mistakes' In Ninja's Book
Tyler "Ninja" Blevins may be keeping schtum following the whole Imane "Pokimane" Anys drama, but the streaming community isn't done with the beef just yet. One streamer, who read some excerpts from Ninja's book, found some thoughtful pieces of life advice from the electric blue-haired Fortnite player that were strangely relatable to the drama.
It seems that Ninja's name is popping up everywhere after his wife and manager Jessica Blevins threatened Pokimane with legal action for "spewing lies" about him, even though Pokimane shared a number of clips as "evidence" to support herself. Pokimane claimed Ninja tried to help "JiDion" have his permanent Twitch ban after he sent a "hate raid" to her stream and repeatedly harassed her on social media. While Pokimane has been very vocal about the drama since she shared Blevins' threat on January 18, there's been radio silence from Ninja's end about the dispute ever since.
However, the rest of the streaming community can't stop talking about it. One particular streamer was left in stitches after discovering some interesting and "hypocritical" comments in Ninja's own book, all about "admitting mistakes and accountability". Subsequently, many fans have been left arguing that Ninja could do with, quite literally, taking a leaf out of his own book.
What Did Ninja Write In His Book About "Admitting Mistakes?"
On January 23, Twitch streamer "Ciirella" was livestreaming her readthrough of Ninja's book Get Good: My Ultimate Guide to Gaming, which he published way back in August 2019. Just as she was about to draw her readthrough to a close, she found a chapter on 'How To Interact With Other Streamers'. Of course, after everything that happened with Pokimane, she couldn't resist having a quick look.
Ciirella was subsequently left wheezing after coming across a section in which Ninja encouraged wannabe streamers to "move on and try to do better" after making a mistake. As she tried to speak through her laughter, Cirella continued to read: "There is no shame in admitting an error. You just need to make sure your apology is sincere, and those errors don't become the norm."
When Ciirella was finally able to stop laughing, she took a swipe at Ninja saying "thank you so much for this advice Ninja. I'm gonna learn from this. I'm gonna use that to female streamers in the future[...] I just wish you would have taken it yourself a little bit."
How Did Fans React To Ciirella's readthrough of Ninja's Book?
Ciirella certainly wasn't the only one to find Ninja's comments hilarious after a clip of her readthrough appeared on the Livestream Fail subreddit. Many joked that Ciirella should be careful of her words otherwise, "Ninja's wife gonna sue her for reading his book on stream." However, other's claimed that they are starting to become frustrated with Ninja's silence on the issue, as one fan claimed: "Ninja getting away with not saying anything at all about the situation is a bit annoying to be honest. He knows he fucked up, but is just pushing it under the rug like nothing happened."
It's clear that Ciirella is on Pokimane's side here, similarly to Zack "Asmongold". As for the rest of the streaming community however, it's still not entirely clear as to which streamer is winning the majority vote.
