He said that Fortnite is making so many mistakes that make you think that the developer is not will to invest in the professional scene. They only care about making money and updating the game regularly with new content.
He concluded by stating that, despite everything, the life of the pro gamers is not so difficult thanks to Fortnite and its rich tournaments. He says that the pros should be happy for all the money they make – they can lose the games and still earn thousands of dollars.
