Community reaction
The community was quite split when they first saw the news. Some were disappointed and sad that he is leaving the team, but there were others that pointed out that he hadn’t had a high placement in Fortnite events for a very long time.
Coop will now be searching for a new team to represent in the upcoming Fortnite events. We’re sure that with his talent and experience he can find a new home soon.
