Predictions
With so many talented Fortnite players hungry to win and grab their sweet cash, it can be very hard to predict who will come out on top. It’s also especially hard when you consider that there are a lot of random factors in a battle royale. That being said, looking back at recent results, we can determine that the Guild Esports duo of Flikk and Anas, alongside Gamma Gaming player, Th0masHD have the highest odds of making it big in Europe. In NAE however, we’ve got players like Clix, Bugha and Bizzle leading the pack. Then in NAW, we can consider Favs, Jay and wavyjacob to have a splendid result in the grand finals.
