Tfue is one of the most well-known names in the gaming world, having had his come-up, ironically, as a top battle royale streamer and one of the best Fortnite pros out there. Since then, he\u2019s flitted between different games, predominantly staying in the battle royale realm but not so much as a competitor but more as just a Twitch streamer. The discussion around BR esports has long been a divisive one, with some critics arguing that no battle royale game can be genuinely competitive due to their random nature, but that hasn\u2019t stopped many top players making very comfortable livings as pro players in Apex Legends, Fortnite, or Warzone. One other criticism that battle royale esports have always faced, too, is how often content creators are invited to compete in tournaments where pros are also playing, saying that it takes away the opportunity from legitimate competitors who have yet to break through. Tfue doesn\u2019t believe this to be as big of an issue as others, as he explained during a Twitch stream on July 20. \u201cAt the end of the day, you\u2019re playing a competitive battle royale,\u201d he said. \u201cIf I own Fortnite or Apex Legends, I\u2019m inviting every big streamer to play in my events, no matter how much money\u2019s on the line. \u201cIt\u2019s a f**king battle royale. If you want to play a real competitive game, go play Valorant, you know what I\u2019m saying? F**king CS. Rocket League. League of Legends.\u201d Of course, many battle royale competitors have gone on to compete in other titles, Valorant being the main one. Players such as Psalm, Poach, and Thwifo, who were top names in Fortnite, switched to the Riot Games FPS when the game came out. It\u2019s likely that, with battle royale games being so popular for streamers, content creator invites will never actually stop completely \u2014 but Tfue thinks that if you\u2019re concerned about that, you might want to switch to a \u201creal\u201d competitive game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tfue claims Apex Legends and Fortnite are not \u201creal competitive games\u201d like Valorant Twitch: TfueTurner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney has suggested that professional battle royale players in games like Fortnite and Apex Legends should play a \u201creal\u201d competitive game like Valorant if they\u2019re not happy with content creators getting invited to big tournaments.
