Bugha climbed the mountain of the world’s best Fortnite players to net himself the highest prize for the battle royale while securing a handsome sum of $3 million before New York’s extreme taxes took effect.

Still though, he didn’t win out at the World Cup relying on the game’s RNG or sitting back to let the lobby kill itself. Among other traits, he used his astounding build speeds to outclass his opponents when it mattered the most.

When Bugha streams, instead of a camera pointed to his face, he opts to show exactly what his wrist is doing at all times. While this is a sure-fire way of silencing anybody who thinks he might be hacking, it’s also an effective method for showing off how quick his edits can be.
