On July 21, 2023, Fortnite icon Tyler "Ninja" went viral on social media after a photo of him opening Counter-Strike: Global Offensive cases at Matthew "Nadeshot's" wedding was posted. Jake Lucky, a well-known esports personality, shared the same on his Twitter handle earlier today. He also brought up a recent tweet by Timothy "TimTheTatman," in which he, Ninja, and Dennis "Cloakzy" opened loot boxes while flying in a private jet.

"It's a gambling addiction. They could buy any skin they want off the market, yet they do this."
