Ninja speechless after bug ruins first Fortnite World Cup qualifying match Epic Games \/ Red Bull GamingFortnite World Cup qualifiers as he was suspiciously eliminated the first time he touched the floor after dropping. The popular Twitch streamer was just starting his quest for qualification in the competition\u2019s Week 5 Solo Open, where he was definitely looking for a Victory Royale to get things going in the right direction straight off the bat. However, he was left completely dumbfounded after being instantly eliminated by what appeared to be a devastating bug in the game. Judging by the animation, it looked as if the game processed that he had landed on top of a nearby tree, but he hadn\u2019t. Ninja decided to drop near Lazy Lagoon at the start of the match, but he wasn\u2019t even able to reach the ground safely before his glider completely disappeared. As he was still pretty high in the air, at the time, he fell to his death before even having the chance to loot up \u2013 taking a terrible 99th placed finish in his first game. \u201cWhat the\u2026\u201d Ninja muttered, before looking right into the camera with a confused expression on his face. For those who aren\u2019t aware, qualification in these Fortnite World Cup Online Opens depend on players\u2019 performances across ten matches, meaning that the loss could have a significant impact on his chances of qualifying this time around. As he waited for his next match to start, the streamer couldn\u2019t help but laugh on a few occasions. Ninja didn\u2019t consider that it was going to be a bugged drop, but instead, thought he had found a sweet spot to drop quicker. \u201cBro, I have been playing and landing here for the last two months and that has never happened. I\u2019ve never been that low to the ground before [with a glider],\u201d he said. Whether or not he will be able to turn it around and qualify during Week 5 remains to be seen. Epic Games have yet to comment on the bug. If they do in the future, we\u2019ll be the first to let you know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
