Tfue, NateHill, SypherPK and more react to missing out on $1 million Fortnite Winter Royale The qualifying for the Fortnite Winter Royale is now complete, with 200 players from North America and Europe securing their place in their respective continent\u2019s grand finals. The competition\u2019s open format meant that any player who fancied their chances in the qualifiers could compete, and attempt to bring home a share of the massive prize pool. Unlike previous invitational Fortnite esports tournaments, professional players and popular streamers had to qualify like everyone else, and when the dust settled on two days worth of intense gameplay, a lot of big names found themselves outside of the qualifying pool. One of the biggest shocks during the qualifying portion of the tournament was seeing FaZe Clan\u2019s Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney place outside of the Top 200. Tfue sits at the top of the highest earning Fortnite players list, but won\u2019t be able to add to that during the Winter Royale, harshly labelling himself as \u201ctrash.\u201d Tenney\u2019s teammate Nate Hill also failed to qualify for the North American finals, expressing his disappointment in the current state of the game by tweeting out that Fortnite is: \u201cNot the game I fell in love with.\u201d 100 Thieves streamer Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff missed out on the top 200. Kolcheff, who is well known amongst Fortnite fans for using a controller, didn\u2019t qualify but congratulated everyone who had it made it, and wished them luck in the next round. Wild stream fam, haven\u2019t grinded Fortnite like that ever. Wasn\u2019t able to qualify but big congrats to everybody that did, GL in the next round. Also, Emus Bday is tomorrow, gonna be off the grid. Much love, goodnight! :heart:\ufe0f \u2014 100T Nickmercs (@NICKMERCS) November 26, 2018 Sypher \u2018SypherPK\u2019 Ali finished the day on 28 points, just missing out on qualification. The Luminosity player was happy with his performance, tweeting: \u201cDidn\u2019t qualify but I\u2019ve become a much better Fortnite player and had a good time. Definitely some work to be done to make it more enjoyable, but overall I had a great time.\u201d Got 28 points again. Didn’t qualify but I’ve become a much better fortnite player and had a good time. Definitely some work to be done to make it more enjoyable but overall I had a great time. \u2014 LG SypherPK (@SypherPK) November 26, 2018 There was good news for Team SoloMid player Ali \u2018Myth\u2019 Kabbani, who finished in 127th place after revealing he suffered from performance anxiety. \u201cQualifying means a lot more than just being able to compete for a million dollars,\u201d tweeted Myth. \u201cMy confidence has definitely been boosted tonight.\u201d Tbh qualifying means a lot more than just being able to complete for a million dollars. For all those congratulating me (I see you Reddit), thank you :heart:\ufe0f My confidence has definitely been boosted tonight :blush: \u2014 Myth (@TSM_Myth) November 26, 2018<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
