@@John6-40 Ping is one of the biggest determining factors in a build fight. I'd argue it's more important than knowing building and editing in the first place. And Ninja has came out and said that he can't build anymore. But when you're playing on 33 ping vs somebody who's on 0 ping, that 0 ping guy is literally playing a different version of the game than you. Where he doesn't have to worry about having his wall taken first try, or doesn't have to worry about taking a wall first try himself, etc. I remember watching Sypher play builds on his old ping. Then central servers got added and it was like watching a different player entirely. It was like all of a sudden it seemed like he got multitudes better overnight. Why play builds on 30-40 ping when no matter how good you are at it you're just gonna feel robbed by the first player you fight who lives in the basement of the servers? Not fun. Pros move to different states for a reason. If ping wasn't important, they wouldn't move.

I genuinely think Ninja got unfairly clipped. I tuned into his stream for a week straight when he was apparently "constantly hating on the game," but honestly, he wasn’t. The entire time I watched, he wasn’t playing with big streamers; he was just goofing off with his brother and having a good time. I honestly think that’s when Ninja was the most entertaining he has ever been. I mean, go watch one of his streams when he was at his peak-he was literally silent 90% of the time, just focused on the game. But now, he’s consistently talking, and it shows that he’s actually a good streamer without needing to be the best at the game. For me, as someone who hasn’t played Fortnite since OG left and hadn’t played for two years before that, I didn’t care about watching the best players. I cared about watching an entertaining stream, and that’s why I watched Ninja.

@@baconfacegamer792dude, the difference between 35 ping and 15 is stupid big. When you do anything on the internet you send information from your computer to the router which then goes to the internet and back (this is an abridged version but I’m going to assume you already know). In Fortnite you send things called packets, and the less packets you send the more time it takes to do something. Imagine this, you have an old wireless mouse and the fastest new wired gaming mouse. Which one is going to be better? Obviously the new fastest wired mouse. It’s the same thing, yes it feels like turbo build is off when you have over 70 ping but when someone has 15 vs 30 ping the one with 15 ping is going to be able to edit, build, react faster than the person without.

i have not seen much of ninja these days, the most i’ve seen is him talking about how the “low taper fade” meme is one of the biggest memes ever. it’s kinda cool to see what he’s turned into

[@jakeinw]

Great video, you picked really good clips I really liked his point about Sypher and Courage being fake with the content it's so unappealing to the people over 18 watching their content who can see right through it. People just hate on Ninj for being real and for being honest. He has played the game for years Epic would be smart to take some tips from him every once in a while. I hope he sees this.

[@BreatheTheMatrix]

Ninja is a real person that got lucky but is seeing the fake world, but he doesn’t enjoy the fake world.

[@brandonhutto8713]

First off, he was a Halo pro when he was very young and did that for several years, he was always an entertainer on top of that so I’m not sure what you’re talking about him getting lucky. I get there’s always some luck involved but he’s probably the one who has earned it the most before he became famous. Secondly, he’s honest and chill now but he was most certainly on the Mount Rushmore of fake streamers before all of that

[@Cherry-ee8rq]

If someone complains, dont just get angry at them. Even if you think they are wrong, they are entitled to their own opinion, and SypherPK and courage are just getting annoyed at Ninja especially after asking just infuriates me

[@Gensis]

Ive literally always thought Ninja has consistently been himself and people just follow whatever is the popular opinion regarding him, I'll always have respect for what he's accomplished

With Ch2, yes. With Ch1, no. Ch1 lived up to the hype. This is the best season of Ch2 BY FAR and I still see the flaws. Plus I really don't get your point, because we're not looking back on Ch2. We're playing it. Ninja has actually been very consistent (unlike his pals) in his opinion of Ch2. Ninja always hated Ch2. Even back then. Ch2 was when he quit Fortnite for long stretches and played Valorant and other games.

13:24 pk just changed his mind as he got excited for remix

[@rossdevin9799]

I know this is gonna bring smoke but I gotta speak my mind. Not everyone thinks like ninja, I love how the game is set up right now. The only reason people agree with ninja is because they are his " followers " yes he is an awesome player, I've been playing since the game came out also, but when someone beats him he usually blames it on anything but himself. Take responsibility for your slopy play or missed shot. Most people love where fortnite is right now, I have noticed that people that need help to play like the medallions or cars are the ones that are crying and whining about the game. Yes the game has bugs but it always does and so do every other game out there. Let's just have fun with what we have, cause the more they mess with the game the more buggy it gets and it just gets worse.

[@John6-40]

1. I agree not everyone thinks like Ninja or hates this season. 2. I don't follow Ninja, but I see where he's coming from. The things he's complaining about are the same things he and many others complained about BACK THEN. The map is too big, there' not much rotation, shakedown and flare guns leads to dead mid game because everyone dies early. Plus everyone hot drops for the mythics. 3. I 100% agree he is annoying when he blames everything but himself for having a bad game. He's far from alone on that in the YT space, though. 4. I actually hated Ch5 and like Ch2 remix, but I get the complaints. They're valid. This isn't on Ch1's level.

[@gagetaylor192]

As somebody who actually watches Ninja he absolutely does not "usually" blame anything but himself. He calls out when he's missing shots or playing badly all the time. Also when it comes to missing shots he has a partial excuse considering his retina literally detached from his eye. He's not working with 100% vision. And he became one of the best players and has incredible aim despite that. And people tend to agree with Ninja because he's actually right about most things he criticizes. If people really gave a shit about the game and its health they'd be backing somebody like Ninja who was here from the start and knows the game. Right now the game is dictated by casual players who play maybe a couple of hours a week who don't know what the fuck they're talking about but speak confidently as if they do. It's like a random nobody who's been in a few brawls on the street saying that Bruce Lee doesn't know anything about martial arts. Like no bro, shut up and let the experienced people speak.

[@rossdevin9799]

@gagetaylor192 well boy, I play everyday for 6 to 10 hours a day. I think ninja is a cry baby, he only complains when he don't win or someone better than him is smokin his ass. I watch him enough to see when he complains about some one hitting him with head shots with a sniper like they shouldn't be able to do that, and so what if the punk can only see with one eye, I got a buddy that plays with one arm and HE don't bitch and moan as much as ninja.

He wasn't gonna play but then they added reload which pretty much saved the game from dying during chapter 5.

[@theDevourerOfChaos]

low taper fade is still MASSIVE tho

[@Riley_Studios]

I think my real problem with Ninja is that sometimes I generally feel he's too negative (let me finish) with that he doesn't like any of the out there Fortnite items, cars, and Marvel items but when the games more so simple like Reload he has a fun time. Personally I like items like the cars and Marvel items as I knew how to play against them and how to properly use them while for reload I find frustrating as it's too aggressive and really unfair at times. Ninja glazes Chapter 4 (Kinda like Sypher with early Chapter 2 though I do agree with Chapter 2 being peak) even though taking one look at his old videos shows he had much more frustration in Chapter 4 compared to how he acts about it now. Ninja just wants the game to basically stay the same and not try new things which is what reload basically is for him. Personally I don't even really enjoy watching Ninja as while he is being honest in his eyes, I'm also being honest and having a good time with Wrecked, Absolute Doom and Remix while he's just complaining about the whole thing or just not playing well 4:14 he has shockwaves and a full set of Nitro Fists but still fights the car head on with his assault rifle. And at 4:36 the Iron Man gloves didn't get him killed there it was a third party he still would've died even if the other player wasn't using them plus the fact he has visualised audio on and yet didn't react to the footsteps behind him until the Auto turret locked on him. he had a jetpack and could've ran to better cover to heal especially with the fact the other guy fell down the hill giving him time to heal or escape. I feel like Ninja just isn't as good as he once was. Personally I feel Ninja is that B!tch in your ear telling you that it sucks despite it being really fun. I'm honest with how I feel about the game and I'm not an epic partner in any way and I can say I found Chapter 2 Season 2 to be really fun. I won't get into full details as it will be too much to read but my favourite Fortnite season's are Nexus War, Absolute Doom, Spies, Flipped, OG, Remix, Underground and Wrecked. I feel criticisms are fair but in Ninja's case if all he does is complain and not enjoy the game I think he should take a break. That's what I did in Chapter 4 when I wasn't enjoying it. And I've come back and I'm having a good time. I can understand why Courage doesn't want to listen to Ninja (not just because KZbin positivity) But because he's trying to play the game and have fun and Ninja's just complaining. (If I was laying with one of my friends and he was just complaining the whole time "Valid or not" I would just want to focus on playing the game so I can actually have a fun time. I can talk with him later like in the lobby but not right in the middle of a game) Anyway that's my thoughts if you took the time to read this thank you. Have a good rest of your day

[@ryanbolton7963]

For me personally, I find the Gane the funniest when it's balanced. And when I die, I can go back and be like "oh I missed a shot, or I gave up high ground." But when there is nothing I could have done, that's when I get frustrated. For example, last season, I was playing trios, and we got sprayed by 3 guys using a war machine and instantly died. There was nothing we could have done differently except running away and hoping another team would take them out instead. That's when I find the game isn't fun when I can't see a way for myself to improve.
