Zinczy points out LoL and Apex as her next targets

Popular streamer Nicholas 'Jynxzi' Stewart announced that his next challenge will be League of Legends (LoL) and Apex Legends. In particular, he expressed his ambition to 'resurrect' Respawn Entertainment's battle royale game Apex Legends, which is currently going through difficult times.

Zink G said on his broadcast, "I heard Apex is at the bottom right now," and "I think I should try League of Legends before I die. It looks like the game with the highest skill gap of all time."

Position as a proven ‘game revivalist’

The reason why Zink G's remarks are attracting attention is because he already has a history of reviving the popularity of several games. It led the Clash Royale craze in 2026 alone, successfully hosted one of the biggest CS2 streamer events of the year, and is currently raising community expectations by announcing a VALORANT tournament.

In the case of Clash Royale, the number of returning users and new subscribers increased rapidly during the period when Zink G was streaming intensively. Famous influencers such as MrBeast and CouRage have also publicly stated that they started playing Clash Royale after watching ZinkG's broadcast. However, there was controversy as Supercell did not mention his contribution in the 'historic year' retrospective video.

Influence proven through CS2 tournaments

ZinkG's influence was clearly revealed at the Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) streamer tournament held on March 15th. The 4v4 competition, in which more than 20 creators including ohnePixel, xQc, Adin Ross, Sketch, and Deji participated, was broadcast simultaneously on 45 channels, including Twitch, YouTube, and Kik.

This event recorded approximately 481,000 concurrent viewers, making it one of the top five most-watched CS2 events of 2026 at the time. However, it is known that things did not go smoothly, with Zink G's Steam account being suspended for 72 hours.

Community reaction mixed with concerns and expectations

There are both expectations and concerns in the community. One user said, "It would be a huge plus if Zink-Z plays Apex," but pointed out, "The stream sniping is so severe that it could ruin his experience." Stream sniping refers to the act of a broadcast viewer knowing the streamer's location and intentionally interfering with it within the game.
