Are you a Valorant player trying to make it big and earn a few bucks? Pray that you find a place in Ninja’s team, and he has to wear socks. Sounds made up? In a recent match, Tyler “Ninja” Blevins’ team was in a 1v4 situation after he killed an opponent. His only teammate alive was a Reyna, who also had to plant the spike.

Not much left to do, Tyler casually bet his teammate $1000 to clutch the round as he went to put on a pair of socks. “Yo! Can you stay alive and get as many as possible? I’m gonna go put some socks on,” said Ninja.
