Twitch icon Tyler "Ninja" has garnered the internet's attention after seemingly roasting the Call of Duty community. In a viral video posted on X (formerly Twitter), Ninja discussed Modern Warfare 3, claiming it would be "riddled with glitches and cheaters." He went on to say that it would take "months" for the game developer to "even fix one issue."
While he believed Modern Warfare 3's gunplay would be good, he went off at Call of Duty players by saying:
"I'm going to go out on a limb and say that - the new CoD is going to be riddled with glitches and cheaters when it launches. And, it'll take them months to even fix one issue. But, guess what? The gunplay is still going to be good and people are going to be j**zing over the mobility that you disgusting, mentally abused... like, players are going to fall for it!

"And, you're going to keep playing it and keep playing it, and be like, 'Dude, they've just got to fix one or two of these glitches, man!'"
The Fortnite streamer then threw shade at Call of Duty's collaborations with popular franchises such as Attack on Titan. He also predicted that Modern Warfare 3's viewership would be "dead" in eight months:
"And then, they're going to come out with some more Attack of Titan skins, and you guys are going to c**am your pants over those. Keep playing the game. Eight months are going to go by and the viewership is going to be dead. You guys are going to be sitting here... playing any other game under the sun. Right?"
Ninja added:
"I'm not done. And then, guess what, dude? The trailer's coming out for the next one - 'Bro, this is it, dude! I'm telling you! Have you seen the trailer?' Did I miss anything, chat?"
