Despite the majority of high-level Fortnite being played on a mouse and keyboard, recent shifts in the competitive community have seen a number of players transition over to controller. While not necessarily using consoles, the shift to controller has been widely debated. Recently, Fortnite World Champion Kyle \u2018Bugha\u2019 Giersdorf was stunned when he realised how strong aim assist is. Similarly, Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins explained he won\u2019t be following suit, but thinks controllers \u2013 when used through a PC \u2013 need a nerf. TSM Myth is another of Fortnite\u2019s biggest names to make the switch, entertaining his Twitch following with a \u2018Day _ on the Sticks\u2019 series. Not only is he re-learning Fortnite, but has even branched out into Rainbow Six Siege and other games as he strives to improve his thumb work. While Myth is only on Day 10 of being \u2018on the sticks\u2019, he is full of confidence in his controller abilities \u2013 even to the point of calling out world renown controller pro NICKMERCS. While live on December 29, Myth was clearly feeling himself and decided to vocalize a challenge to Kolcheff. \u201cChat, I wanna 1v1 NICKMERCS,\u201d Kabbani said. \u201cTell NICKMERCS dude, I wanna 1v1 him. Call him. Where\u2019s the MFAM? Next time Nick goes live, you let him know.\u201d He didn\u2019t stop there, however, as he taunted the FaZe Clan streamer with a humorous throwback to some earlier beef. \u201cTell NICKMERCS to 1v1 me\u2026 meathead!\u201d Myth joked. The \u2018meathead\u2019 reference is a tongue-in-cheek throwback to a disagreement the pair had a year or two ago \u2013 when they came up against one another in KEEMSTAR\u2019s Friday Fortnite tournament. The two are good friends now. \u201cWe need some drama in the Fortnite scene man,\u201d Myth finished. \u201cI\u2019ll take on NICKMERCS on controller dude. F*cking 1v1 playground bro \u2013 let\u2019s go.\u201d While the pair are good friends now, Myth has obviously grown confident in his Fortnite abilities, but it would take one monstrous performance to beat Kolcheff, who is considered one of the world\u2019s best controller players. As of the time of writing, Nick has not responded to Myth\u2019s challenge, but it\u2019s certainly a clash many fans \u2013 and us \u2013 want to see soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSM Myth taunts NICKMERCS with Fortnite controller 1v1 challenge Fortnite and TSM star Ali \u2018Myth\u2019 Kabbani has hilariously called out Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff, as the former strives to become known as one of the best controller players in the world.
