UNO wants Fortnite to keep the v8.20 update after Ninja and co. switched games Ubisoft\/Epic GamesThe official Twitter account for UNO has hilariously called for Epic Games to keep the v8.20 update in Fortnite, after a host of popular streamers started playing UNO instead. On March 28, a host of the most popular Fortnite Twitch streamers \u2013 Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins, Timothy \u2018TimTheTatman\u2019 Betar, Marcel \u2018BasicallyIDoWrk\u2019 Cunningham and Jack \u2018CouRage\u2019 Dunlop \u2013 switched to streaming UNO together, partly due to their collective lack of enjoyment in Fortnite after the v8.20 update. The update, which removed a number of popular changes implemented in Season 7, such as 50 HP bonus on elimination and an increased farming rate, has led to significant complaints from the Fortnite community, that squads are boring after the update. Due to the popularity of their streams, UNO likely experienced a surge in popularity as viewers flocked to watch (and subsequently play) the online version of the popular family card game. In response to a clip from TimTheTatman\u2019s stream of the group playing their game, the official UNO Twitter account replied to mock Ninja\u2019s cards, saying: \u201cyou got quite the card collection going there.\u201d @Ninja you got quite the card collection going there.:rolling_on_the_floor_laughing::rolling_on_the_floor_laughing: \u2014 UNO (@realUNOgame) March 29, 2019 Later on March 29, KFC Gaming replied to a Fortnite tweet about updates with an image of the UNO \u2018Reverse\u2019 card, and the caption: \u201cTime to revert the update.\u201d This prompted the official UNO account to take aim at Fortnite and comment again, this time simply with: \u201cThey can take their time.\u201d Although UNO\u2019s tweets are clearly tongue in cheek, their jokes about capitalizing on the unpopularity of Fortnite\u2019s recent updates fit with wider community complaints about the removal of some of the game\u2019s most popular features. There has, at the time of writing, been no official response from Epic Games related to the update\u2019s backlash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
