Fortnite players caught teaming in solo Pop-Up Cup Epic GamesA Fortnite streamer broadcast himself teaming up with another player in a recent Solo Pop-Up cup, prompting a number of questions from the community. The Pop-Up cups in Fortnite take the normal Battle Royale mode and put a spin on it \u2013 usually in the way of changing health and shields or capping the amount of materials players can use. In this instance, participants in the Solo event were only able to use 500 of each material \u2013 Wood, Brick and Metal \u2013 instead of the usual 999. However, two players decided to team up for the event and stream it live on Twitch. While Duo Pop-Up cups are a thing, the community was outraged by players teaming up in a solo event. The streamer, Matthew \u2018Seal\u2019 Zappia, showed himself communicating with another player who asks him for \u201cmedkit or camp(fire)\u201d in a bid to heal. After receiving messages about the situation being Tweeted about, the other player said: \u201cI saw, dude (the Twitter videos) I don\u2019t know why they care so much. Like, OK dude, sorry I gave Seal 30 shield dude in a fucking Solo pop-up that\u2019s worth nothing. Like, taking a fucking joke \u2013 I don\u2019t know.\u201d Teaming in popup? @xSUND0WN @Loomin__ pic.twitter.com\/1sv8SAZXZ0 \u2014 Blix (@Blixifer) January 29, 2019 Zoof, a Fortnite player, responded to the tweets showing the players teaming by stating: \u201cit\u2019s sad because this is a way some people probably qualified for winter royale and secret skirmish lol\u201d it’s sad because this is a way some people probably qualified for winter royale and secret skirmish lol \u2014 code: zoof (@zoof) January 29, 2019 Another player, ImChung, replied: \u201cif they dont get banned idk (I don\u2019t know) where the line is.\u201d It remains to be seen if either of the players will suffer any consequences for teaming in the solo event. Players have been banned from Fortnite for breaking this rule in the past, so its hard to see them not following the same path.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
