Following the surprise, MrBeast challenged Tfue. With every elimination he got, MrBeast would donate $500. With ease, Tfue got the win, racking up 12 kills along the way. Following this, MrBeast donated the remaining amount, bringing the total up to $10000!

Tfue gets emotional during the farewell announcement

After a lengthy streaming career, Tfue decided to retire. Along his journey, he won a plethora of different cups, signing with FaZe along the way. While he did not like Fortnite initially, the game grew on him, with him rising through the ranks.

In the video, Tfue talked about the pressure of creating content every day for 6-8 hours on the stream being the reason he chose to retire. As a result, he felt trapped in what he described as a never-ending cycle of having to create content. It was an emotional moment as he stepped away from a streaming channel with thousands of fans.
