Over the years, SypherPK has solidified his position as one of the most popular Fortnite creators in the world. With over 4 million followers on Twitch, his livestreams attract a vast audience, which also includes stream snipers.
To avoid getting stream sniped, SypherPK exposes stream snipers live on his stream and reports them. However, it seems that a stream sniper named SaucyJavi was unaware of this strategy. Unsurprisingly, SypherPK exposed Saucy and made sure that he faces a permanent ban for his actions.
