Despite having a pretty vast pool of professional players, the competitive scene in Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 2 has really kicked off like previous seasons. Professionals like Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney and Kyle \u2018Bugha\u2019 Giersdorf can still be seen practicing and getting ready for action, but that can\u2019t be said for everyone. Despite praising the new season and its content, Ninja still has a few issues with the game itself \u2013 noting that these bugs can be pretty detrimental to competitive matches. During his March 8 stream, Blevins had to play some duo games with fellow streamer SypherPK when the pair were taken down inside The Agency and blamed an issue with trying to build. \u201cThey\u2019re the worst. That\u2019s why I\u2019m not playing in the scrims anymore, my whole chat is like \u2018the scrims are so beneficial\u2019 but they\u2019re really not,\u201d the streaming star said after complaining about the current state in which Fortnite performs. \u201cI get like maybe fighting towns and players off spawn when there\u2019s not that much lag, yeah, that\u2019s fine \u2013 like rotating, alright, I get it. But after the rotation, after that man, you\u2019re getting shot through walls, builds aren\u2019t placing, players are teleporting,\u201d he added, noting that players had been \u201cskipping and sliding\u201d through the last scrim he played in and how it wasn\u2019t really too fun to play. The former Halo professional also claimed that pros had been \u201cstressing\u201d to compete in the new season but he wasn\u2019t sure why, seeing as Epic hasn\u2019t made a move to launch competitive play like they did with the FNCS and Fortnite World Cup. Whether or not those events will come further down the line, however, remains to be seen as there haven\u2019t been any hints just yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ninja explains why he doesn\u2019t play Fortnite competitively in Season 2 Mixer: Ninja\/Epic GamesStreaming superstar Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins has explained why he\u2019s been veering away from competitive games in Fortnite season 2, blaming a few problems that still exist within the battle royale.
