GameSquare Esports CEO Justin Kenna and GameSquare Esports chief innovation officer Tyler Blevins discuss their plan to transform the esports gaming and media world on 'The Claman Countdown.'
Tyler Blevins, better known as "Ninja," has announced a new gaming juncture, taking the controls of GameSquare's innovation hub. The professional gamer signed on as the company's chief innovation officer with a mission to create "incredibly authentic and amazing content."
Blevins and GameSquare Esports CEO Justin Kenna joined "The Claman Countdown" on Thursday to discuss the gaming venture company's transformational move and its road map going forward.
"I think at the end of the day, when it comes to anything that we're going to be doing, it's pretty much always work if you create incredible content," Blevins told "The Claman Countdown." "And if you create incredible things, you know, I think, you know, [it] just travel spreads by word of mouth, right? It gets the job done in itself. So I think that's our goal — is just to be able to make sure that we're creating incredibly authentic and amazing content."
Blevins's rise among the gaming world began in 2018 through the popular household online video game Fortnite. Since then, the famed gamer has racked up millions of followers across his social platforms.
Beyond "Ninja's" new role, two of the biggest names in esports are preparing to grow by joining forces in a revolutionary move.

"I think, you know, having the ability, you know, we have a media network that reaches 115 million gaming and esports fans every month. So I think it's really compelling when we talk to and deal with brands that are trying to reach audience in the space, they realize how large these audiences are," he said. "But they are fragmented, they're hard to reach and we guarantee them a certain level of engagement."
