Why does xQc think competitive Fortnite is trash? The former Overwatch pro started streaming the game again following the introduction of arena mode, creating some hilarious moments alongside FaZe Clan\u2019s Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney. However, while the 23-year-old has stated that he had fallen in love with the game since he has been playing it, xQc has suggested that Epic Games\u2019 venture into the esports scene has been a failure. The esports overall is fucking trash,\u201d xQc said during his May 8 stream. \u201cIt is unwatchable, it has no substance, they don\u2019t know how to spectate it or make it exciting. \u201cThe storylines are non-existent,\u201d he continued, clearly annoyed by the current state of competitive. \u201cThe broadcast is boring, the dialogue is normy, the integration of personalities is unbearable and their vision for production is trash.\u201d Although xQc admitted that Fortnite has had its good moments, he continued by branding the game as \u201cunbearable\u201d in his passionate tirade. He said: \u201cTheir integration of competitive gaming in a casual setup is fucking disgusting \u2013 it is unbearable as an esport, a complete failure.\u201d The Canadian streamer shares the opinion of many Fortnite professional players, who are clearly unhappy with the direction the game is heading in, with many even threatening to quit following the conclusion of the World Cup. However, with the massive prize pools being offered by Epic Games \u2013 with the Fortnite World Cup offering a prize pool of $30 million alone \u2013 it\u2019s hard to see any top players walking away, even if they don\u2019t enjoy the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>xQc brands competitive Fortnite \u201ca complete failure\u201d ahead of $30m World Cup Popular Twitch streamer F\u00e9lix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel might well have made his return to Fortnite Battle Royale, but believes the game\u2019s competitive scene is a \u201ccomplete failure\u201d.
