You are forgetting he grew and became #1 streamer because his brand was being the best, now hes on the decline both in popularity and physically as hes nearing his 30s, average age of the top 100 fortnite players was 16.8 years old, he can't hang anymore and this decision just assured him multiple years of peak earning he couldn't even get on twitch at his peak, anybody thinking this was a bad decision is misinformed or over valuating streamers a lot, if 10 million yearly is true that would require 400k subs every month, Ninja peak subcount aided by fortnite packs was 250k and that lasted a month or two, with 400k a month that the equivalent of an nearly an entire year of sub money for xQc.
Clap for his manager
