Sodapoppin Archives

Since it first launched in 2011, the streaming platform Twitch has introduced the gaming community to new and entertaining personalities It's given otherwise unknown gamers a venue to show off everything from their gaming skills to their dance moves, and the more entertaining they are, the more viewers, subscribers, and donors they get. Between her ad revenue, sponsored social media posts, and Twitch subscribers alone, she's well off, but this particular gamer also seems to attract many viewer donations, which greatly increase her net worth. Sodapoppin steamed other games before switching to online gambling.

Between viewer subscriptions to his Twitch channel, sponsorships from various companies, and ad revenue, it is estimated that as of September 2018, Tyler "Ninja" Blevins makes approximately $500,000 every month That's some serious cash for playing video games, though Blevins and other gamers have been quick to point out that creating a sustainable income from Twitch is no easy task.

Officially, Twitch Partners and Affiliates receive 50% of the total subscription fee, so for the $4.99 tier, the streamer would get around $2.50. Twitch has been known to increase this amount for popular streamers to encourage them to remain on the Twitch platform, with some being upgraded to anywhere from 60% to 100% of the monthly fee.

It does, however, allow those who have learned ‘basic strategy' the chance to fight the house for a share of the money everyone else is spending - and since games always have winners and losers, you have to do your level best to be on the right side of the list.

With his high status, he's also known for hosting small Twitch streamers so that they can gain traction in the streaming world as well. Twitch as a platform is focused largely on video game streams, but there is a large community of 'IRL' (In Real Life) streamers and an even larger audience for their content.

It was in 2012 that Sodapoppin actually came to life and the name was incredibly popular among his fans; he posted his first YouTube video and called it ‘Sodapoppin playing Amnesia 2'. After his first video, he moved on to stream his gameplay for the World of Warcraft which throughout the years has been one of the most popular games.

Twitch itself finds Sodapoppin as a rebellious person that doesn't want to play timthetatman by the rules…most of the time. Sodapoppin is known to be in a relationship with fellow popular Twitch streamer LegendaryLea a.k.a. Lea May Currier. Sodapoppin will be streaming and meeting his many fans in the new and improved streaming area in Hall C during the whole festival.

However, as the video game section became larger, eventually dwarfing IRL streams, the site changed focus entirely. Summit1G is one of the most watched Twitch streamers who, like many other casters, is trying to get in on the Fortnite action. At one point, YouTuber Mr. Beast , who is known for donating large sums of money to random Twitch streamers, even showed up at Tfue's house and promised to give him $500 for every kill he made in Fortnite.

Chance Morris is currently in a relationship with another Twitch gaming star who is more famous as Legendary Lea. Naturally, the streamer was speechless and a gracious recipient of the donation, proving that even those who work hard to make a good living on Twitch are still grateful for special recognition from a fan.

While Shroud is another Twitch streamer consistently topping viewership charts, he's used his talents to branch out into other sources of revenue to supplement his income. Sodapoppin's real name is Thomas Jefferson Chance Morris IV. His fans know this well but for those who aren't familiar at all, yes, Thomas Jefferson is his legit first name.

Streamers make money through the Cheering feature when a fan cheers with bits in the chat. Clint Stevens, another popular streamer, spoke about this a couple of weeks ago — and unlike his fellow casters, found the phenomenon positive. He mainly plays World Of Warcraft but has also streamed gameplay of other games like IRL, Overwatch, Dead By Daylight, The Joy Of Sex, Slay The Spire, God Of War etc.

In October 2017, Sodapoppin participated in H1Z1 Invitational tournament where he eliminated fellow streamer, Dr. DisRespect. Based on the high viewership of his videos, his large number of subscribers, and the fact that he consistently tops Twitch's metrics charts, the Twitch star doesn't seem like $5,000 is much of a setback for him.
