Ghost Gaming’s Timothy ‘Bizzle’ Miller is far from pleased with the latest Fortnite tournament, but Nick ‘NICKMERCS’ Kolcheff believes he has no reason to be angry.
Bizzle is currently the highest earning player in Fortnite history thanks to his excellent performances in the Skirmish tournaments as well as LAN events – most recently finishing 4th at ESL Katowice back at the start of March.
The latest Fortnite tournament, the Blackheart Cup, is available to all players who qualified through the recent pop-up events with $100,000 on offer in prize money.

He stated that the tournaments allowed new players the chance to earn some money while offering pro players some online practice – questioning what exactly Bizzle was moaning about.
Come on B, they’re slingin’ 100M this year, ain’t breakin’ the bank w/ a few 100K online test tournaments before cup qualifiers. Some new names snag a few bucks. We get some online tournament practice. Why complain?
