SypherPK defends NICKMERCS after Fortnite community roasts Champion Series error SypherPK, NickMercs \/ InstagramFaZe Clan star \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff has faced some stern criticism from members of the Fortnite community after failing in his team\u2019s latest attempt to qualify for the game\u2019s Champion Series. The Fortnite player linked up with fellow streamers Ali \u2018SypherPK\u2019 Hassan and Jimmy \u2018HighDistortion\u2019 Moreno as the team tried to qualify in the Trios section. After finding their efforts to be unsuccessful this time out, the squad have faced criticism not only for their teamwork overall, but NICKMERCS has very much taken the brunt from their performance \u2013 with SypherPK moving to defend his partner online. The Luminosity Gaming pro player admitted that they could have played better in a post to his official Twitter account on September 2, taking shots at those who have been attacking his friends online. \u201cI will not tolerate hate towards my teammates. I\u2019d rather lose with my friends instead of win with people who I don\u2019t even care about. Some of you can\u2019t see the big picture. When we do pop off it\u2019ll be worth it. You\u2019ll see,\u201d he tweeted. Also I will not tolerate hate towards my teammates. I\u2019d rather lose with my friends instead of win with people who I don\u2019t even care about. Some of you can\u2019t see the big picture. When we do pop off it\u2019ll be worth it. You\u2019ll see. \u2014 LG SypherPK (@SypherPK) September 1, 2019 There was one particular instance, involving NICKMERCS, which has proved to be a lightning rod of debate among the game\u2019s community on Reddit. The former 100 Thieves player was communicating with his teammates, decided to go for the high ground \u2013 as seen below \u2013 took a shot at an enemy in a bush, before retreating back to where his team were based, without picking up an elimination. One Reddit user wrote: \u201cI\u2019m a Nick fan. I\u2019m not going to defend this. I had a great day watching that trio make some of the worst mistakes I\u2019ve ever seen. It was like watching myself out there.\u201d A second redditor posted: \u201cHe could shoot and kill him it takes half a second and then go back.\u201d \u201cHe did an amazing job at removing that guys bush. 690 IQ play right here. Nobody ever even saw him,\u201d was another response to the video \u2013 posted by bestoneyetforreal. Whether or not the team will come back together, shake off the criticisms, and get over the line for Champion Series qualification remains to be seen. They will have until September 15 to get over the line as the tournament builds towards the Season Finals between September 20-22. One thing is for sure, though, SypherPK and his teammates seem adamant to have the last laugh on this one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
