Ninja originally began his campaign in gaming and esports as a professional Halo player for multiple years, but eventually retired from competing in order to pursue content creation full-time – a move which has proved to suit him well.
As the gaming industry continues to grow on a daily basis, only time will tell to determine how large and well-recognized Ninja can become.
