Tfue reveals how casters cost him a kill at Fortnite World Cup Epic GamesPopular Fortnite player Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney has revealed that the casters at the World Cup cost him a kill in the very first match of the solos portion of the tournament. Tfue entered Fortnite World Cup as one of the competition\u2019s biggest names, and undoubtedly one of the favorites to finish high up the leaderboard and claim a major share of the $30 million prize pool. Things didn\u2019t work out that way for the 21-year-old though, who struggled throughout the six matches and finished in 67th place with just seven points. Still an admirable effort considering the skill-level of the matches though. On his return to streaming on Tuesday, July 30, Tfue revealed that his points tally could have been higher, had the tournament\u2019s casters not spoiled his position and loadout, and cost him a kill. During his broadcast, the American discussed how the casters affected his and others\u2019 gameplay, as the headphones that were given to players weren\u2019t able to block out the voices of Ben \u2018DrLupo\u2019 Lupo and Jack \u2018CouRageJD\u2019 Dunlop, who were commentating over the event. \u201cHow the World Cup was set up, it was loud as fuck,\u201d the Twitch streamer explained. \u201cThey have noise cancelling headphones but it\u2019s so fucking loud that you can hear the announcers and shit.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m early game at The Block, and I\u2019m getting kitted up, I land on the gold chest so I obviously have better loot. We both land at The Block, the announcers are blasting in the mic \u2018Tfue at The Block with full shields, a SCAR [assault rifle], a shotgun,\u2019 and all you see is the other kid hitting the wall and leave. He heard it.\u201d This incident took place in the very first match of the solos tournament, and in a clip taken from the official broadcast, it\u2019s clear to see a player named Clipnode exit The Block just moments after Tfue\u2019s position and loadout were mentioned on stream. Of course, it\u2019s possible that this was just a coincidence, and without Clipnode\u2019s confirmation that he left because of the announcers\u2019 call, the true reason for his exit cannot be confirmed. Whether finding the kill against Clipnode at The Block would have made a significant difference to his eventual performance remains uncertain, but the sharp exit of his opponent clearly cost him a golden opportunity at finding an early kill in the competition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
