The reason behind his enthusiasm is his love for competitive Fortnite, and the countless memories he has of it. Tfue, on the flip side, disagreed with Nickmercs.

Even though Tfue accepted competitive Fortnite is fun to watch, he still said he wouldn’t play the game, “Watching competitive Fortnite is way more fun than playing it, that’s a fact.”

True to his nature, Nickmercs quickly followed up saying, “You can say whatever you want bro but I sat next to you in TwitchCon, and I have never seen you happier in my entire life.”
