NickEh30 gets Twitch streamer banned for allegedly stream sniping Epic Games \/ NickEh30NickEh30\u2019s latest Fortnite tournament was quite a spectacle, but it was tainted by an alleged stream sniper, who was reported and subsequently banned despite maintaining his innocence. [jwplayer uZppK6qI] Nick \u2018NickEh30\u2019 Amyoony has been hosting a series of Fortnite tournaments in recent months. The latest one was the NickEh30 Cup. It gave players a chance to compete against some of the game\u2019s biggest names in the scene for a chance to win $10,000. It was all positive for the most part. A lesser-known professional Fortnite player named Crumble managed to impress and take home the prize. However, the tournament was marred with some unfortunate stream sniping drama. In the final match, several other players landed on NickEh30, including a Twitch streamer named ArchieFN. He eliminated NickEh30 and danced on his body for the better part of 30 seconds. NickEh30 was less than impressed and looked disappointed and deflated on stream. It was a stark contrast to his usual upbeat and positive vibe. He was convinced ArchieFN was stream sniping and hopped into the replay mode to report him and a few others. Fortunately, Epic Games responded almost instantly and banned ArchieFN for 24 hours as soon as he returned to the lobby. You can watch a full recap of the incident below and form your own opinion. However, ArchieFN is maintaining his innocence. He claimed he wasn\u2019t stream sniping at all. Instead, he said he wanted to \u201ccontest someone who wasn\u2019t a tier-one pro\u201d and decided to land on NickEh30 after seeing him land in the same spot during a previous game. Still, he apologized for what he did and acknowledged that some might find it \u201cscummy.\u201d Sadly, that didn\u2019t stop him from copping a bit of abuse, some of which was needless and extreme.

It isn\u2019t too long to wait if he\u2019s innocent, but it\u2019s enough for a wake-up call if he\u2019s guilty. Either way, The NickEh30 was a success despite the stream sniping drama, and a rightful victor was still crowned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
