FaZe's Ewok Has Returned To Twitch

FaZe Clan favourite Soleil "Ewok" Wheeler is back on Twitch and has signed an exclusive deal with the streaming platform after she previously jumped ship to Mixer. Following the closure of Mixer in July, there have been question marks over where popular streamers like Tyler "Ninja" Blevins, Michael "Shroud" Grzesiek, Ewok, and all the rest would be heading. 

Most streamers have been giving a slow trail of clues to what's next, while Ewok has just out-and-out returned to Twitch after she previously partnered with the service. Back when Mixer was all the rage, Ewok was up there with Ninja and Shroud as one of the top-level signings to Microsoft's Twitch rival. Now, the prominent deaf player and 14-year-old Fortnite pro is back on familiar turf.

According to ESPN, Ewok has returned on fine form to Twitch. She told the site, "I decided to return to Twitch because the platform has a vast network, and I had already established a community there before switching over to Mixer. It's also the best platform for me to continue building my brand. I also miss Twitch Rivals and meeting people that have supported me since day one". 

Even if Mixer's demise was pretty public and saw the big three decide not to move over to Facebook Gaming, Ewok said there are no hard feelings when it comes to the split. Discussing her time with Mixer, Ewok said, "Mixer is a part of my journey that I will always cherish. I learned from the community there, and they helped me grow as a streamer".

As it stands, both Ewok and Shroud are exclusively back on Twitch, while Ninja is keeping his cards close to his chest. Despite a single YouTube stream in the midst of the pandemic, Ninja also set tongues wagging in a recent Twitch collab with DrLupo. 

When it comes to FaZe Clan, Ewok was big news as the team's first female player and the second youngest (behind H1ghSky1). She's a huge name in the world of esports and is already going down a storm on Twitch all over again. Her return stream clocked up 20,000 viewers as she played Fortnite and Fall Guys. As the Twitch community welcomed her back with open arms, Ewok hasn't wasted any time getting back into it.
