Dubs has mentioned that he’ll be playing 12 hours a day to get into form. He also tells his fans that if they thought he’s one of the best, he is about to get a lot better.

It’s not unusual for a pro player to be out for redemption. Being banned from the game he is famous for would have certainly been a massive bummer for the 16-year-old. Dubs is currently on a 30-day ban from Fortnite.
