TSM Enters the Fortnite: Battle Royale Esports Scene
TSM, the esports juggernaut, is venturing into the world of Fortnite: Battle Royale, a rapidly growing esport. The team has already signed one player, Ali “Myth” Kabbani, who will serve as the team’s captain.
Myth expressed his excitement about this opportunity, saying, “This is like a little boy’s dream come true. I remember watching TSM compete in League tournaments, and now I have the honor of representing them in Fortnite. I’m ready to show everyone what TSM can do in this game.”
TSM highlights that Myth has been a part of the Fortnite community since its inception, achieving the highest rank on the leaderboards as one of the game’s premiere builders.
TSM’s early entry into Fortnite’s esports scene aligns with their approach in games like PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) last year. Their PUBG team, consisting of popular streamers, has already competed in LAN events.
Meanwhile, Fortnite’s popularity is soaring with increasing Twitch viewership and consistent support from Epic Games through patches and new content releases.
While PUBG’s esports scene is set to continue in 2018, it appears that Fortnite might also have plans for competitive play.
