Dakotaz explains why he blocked Ninja as Fortnite feud intensifies
Twitch streamer Brett ‘Dakotaz‘ Hoffman has slammed Mixer star Tyler ‘Ninja‘ Blevins, over comments he made regarding creators criticism of Fortnite.
Ninja and Dakotaz have been taking shots at each other, disagreeing over whether content creators should be able to criticize the game they are playing. Ninja has clashed with other Fortnite personalities in the past over this matter, including Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney, saying that if they no longer like the game, they should simply stop playing it.
On December 20, Blevins released a video to Twitter, in which he lashed out at streamers for criticizing Fortnite, encouraging them instead to go and play other games. Dakotaz has hit back in dramatic fashion on December 24.

In a clip from his Christmas Eve stream, Dakotaz confirmed he had blocked the Mixer star: “It must be tough to get blocked, being Ninja,” he said. “I wonder what that feels like. Not everyone’s gonna kiss your ass in life, buddy.”
“Now you don’t have to read my tweets,” he continued. “You don’t have to complain about me anymore. Next time you make a video about me, [tag] me, p*ssy. Until then, take a seat.”
The 31-year-old is referencing Blevins criticism of streamers who are perceived to hate on the games they play. Some side with Ninja, while others argue that playing a game does not stop an individual from being able to criticize the game in question.
Dakotaz has since followed up his on-stream comments with a number of critical tweets, in which he says that he blocked Blevins because he doesn’t “need a snowflake sending his 12-year-old army on me”.

However, he does point out that Ninja has done big things for streamers and the streaming community, but that he’s “done” with the Mixer star.
