The Fortnite Champion Series reached its halfway stage and the pair of Tfue and Scoped took the Duos win. The tournament featured incredible gameplays in spite of in-game issues threatening Fortnite. During week three, Tfue and Scoped became the third different duo to take first-place.

In the buildup to the week three finals, Tfue and Scoped are trying to establish themselves as the favourites. TO be frank, they are doing a decent job of it, as we approach the FNCS Heats. In fact, each passing week is far more important than the last in terms of the results. So, how did the semi-finals pan out for Tfue, Scoped and their opponents?

Tfue and Scoped are currently leading the pack and are in a good position to keep the lead. This is largely since they have a fresh set of six games to play in finals. Admittedly, Tfue has some extra motivation to win the FNCS.

Apparently, Popular e-sports group Faze Clan is suing him for ‘violating his contract’. Earlier, he wanted to leave the group and sued them for an alleged exploitative contract. So, Faze Clan is counter-suing him for trying to form a rival e-sports organization and violating his contracy.

According to Faze, he made more than $20 million from streaming, gaming endorsements, and sponsorships. They even alleged that he “shared almost none of this income with Faze Clan.” So, they are seeking compensation from Tenney for its services and unspecified damages under the terms of the contract.

Additionally, Faze is seeking to prevent him from revealing any supposedly confidential information. This could potentially disparage the company publicly, and interfere with its current roster of talent.
