Zayt

A massive name in the Fortnite streaming and competitive scene, Zayt recently announced his retirement from Fortnite. Tired of the Fortnite grind and dwindling prize pools, Zayt's stated that he will not step away from the game entirely.

"Before you guys freak out, I'm staying in the Fortnite scene. I'm gonna stop competing in Fortnite. I'm gonna stop playing tournaments. I'm gonna stop playing scrims."

Bugha, the best Fortnite player currently, tweeted the following in response to Zayt's departure:

seeing one of the best fortnite players quit the game is pretty weird, if changes aren't made soon many others will most likely follow down the same path. best of luck to your future @zayt 💙
