What makes Fortnite so unique for the world champion is the building aspect of the game. It provides players with many different ways to compete against opponents.
The building defines Fortnite and is a key feature. Here you can see a few building tips so you can protect yourself against opponents.
“I thought building and editing were so cool because I’ve never played a game that allowed you to execute your own mechanics and create things.”
His eSports career also started with Fortnite. Since then, it has been his “job,” says the young professional.
Other battle royale games stand no chance
Would Bugha switch Fortnite for other games? The professional has tried other battle royale games like Fortnite competitors Apex Legends and CoD Warzone.
So far, no battle royale can lure him away from Fortnite, and that does not seem to be happening in the near future.
“I think these games have a lot to offer, but in my heart, Fortnite will always be the best.”
The building aspect makes Fortnite so unique that it always stands out from other battle royales, even in the competitive scene.
