The feud began when Epic Games suddenly banned wagers from the game. Wagers were one of Clix’s preferred ways of spending time on the game. Additionally, the concept of Fortnite wagers was designed and popularized by him. However. due to the violation of multiple gambling laws across various countries, Epic was forced to ban the game mode.

Following this ban, Clix tweeted how he could not enjoy both battle royale or arena’s due to the abundance of stream-snipers. Furthermore, since he could not play wagers, he decided to test an alternative battle royale in the form of Warzone. As a result, rumors floated around that Clix may follow in the footsteps of Tfue, leaving behind Fortnite.

On his most recent stream, Clix was enjoying a game of Fortnite when he once again got stream sniped. A player had tracked down the streamer and managed to blind-side Clix.

More often than not Clix rages and loses his cool after this happens, but this time he was silent. A few minutes later, Clix can be heard telling the player “I’m getting you perm-banned” repeatedly.

Later Clix went on to reveal that he had attended a meeting with Epic where he was able to make a new contact. This contact would ban stream-snipers instantly if Clix could present them proof of the same. During his moments of silence, Clix was busy finding the player’s username and subsequent proof that he was stream-sniping.

On the other hand, Epic recently created the Pulga bundle featuring Clix’s patented ‘Sparkplug’ skin. Therefore, it is good to see the two working together to improve the landscape of Fortnite.
