Rem's father destroys his setup during ongoing Fortnite Championship Series
Rem is clearly quite upset over the incident as he is currently unable to play Fortnite during the peak of the competitive season. It is a bad time for any computer mishaps for competitive players, especially if those mishaps make the computer completely unusable.
Jake Lucky went on to say that he is planning on interviewing Rem and gave some context for the situation.
Rem has set up a GoFundMe for the PC so that he can hopefully return to prominence and continue playing the game he loves, as well as other titles if he chooses to.
Rem stated that his dad didn't add a penny for the setup that he later destroyed, which only makes the situation worse.
