The recent online beef between Tyler "Ninja" Blevins and Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson is set to be settled in a lights-out all-out event in Las Vegas as the two have announced a League of Legends showmatch worth $150,000.
The iconic streaming duo has recently been exchanging blows on Twitter, with MrBeast taking time out from running his own Willy Wonka-style chocolate factory to claim Ninja "sucks", while the blue-haired FPS star claimed that he would "literally dominate [MrBeast] in a League of Legends match, and it wouldn’t even be close".
Now, the pair have decided to see who can walk the walk after mouthing off on socials, announcing a huge exhibition.
Ninja And MrBeast Host $150,000 LoL Match In Las Vegas
Taking to Twitter once more, MrBeast announced that Ninja has accepted the offer of a $150,000 League of Legends exhibition match, in which the two will go head-to-head in a Las Vegas showdown on July 9.
Both MrBeast and Ninja will act as captains for their respective five-player League of Legends teams to play in a best-of-three series, hosted by Ultimate Crown.
Which Streamers Will Play In The Mr Beast Vs Ninja Showmatch?
The teams will likely feature some of the biggest streamers in League of Legends and the wider gaming community.
The first name on the list will probably be ex-League of Legends professional turned content creator Tyler "Tyler1" Steinkamp, who would be best suited to flesh-out MrBeast's squad given Ninja often streams League of Legends and will have the personal edge over his opponent.
Other huge names such as Imane "Pokimane" Anys and Felix "xQc" Lengyel could also be on the cards, given they have also been known to play League in their downtime.
The teams and venue are set to be announced in the near future, although the only matchup we want to see is Ninja and MrBeast in the mid-lane.
