He is one prominent Esports figure who enjoys playing the battle royale. The factor that he is well known for while playing Fortnite is that he always gets fall damage. The streamer has succumbed to death due to fall damage a ridiculous number of times, And it seems like this has caught the eye of Epic Games.

What happened in the case of Sypher would still be looked up by the pro with some salt. Just before his icon series was about to drop, Fortnite released a rip-off of his style.
