Tfue won a Fortnite tournament with the flu, and threw up mid-game

FaZe Clan Fortnite pro Tfue won the second week of the game’s Fall Skirmish series while sick with the flu – even throwing up in the middle of a game.

Tfue noted to his audience during a stream of the event that he was feeling out of sorts, expressing that he felt fairly nauseous.

“I just wanna lay down, man,” he said. “I don’t even wanna think about it dude, I’m gonna throw up.”

He could be seen retching just off-camera as he presumably reached for a wastebasket.

Tfue tweeted about his comeback after securing a Victory Royale Flush in game two. “Went from puking to dropping a Victory Royale flush game 2 in fall skirmish week 2,” he wrote, much to his fans’ amusement.

That wasn’t the only crazy instance the pro had on-stream during the Skirmish, either. He even left his setup to use the bathroom, then came back to win the game.

Tfue’s #1 placement in the second Fall Skirmish event was met with raucous celebration from his teammates. He dove out of his window at his victory, where the rest of FaZe clan could be heard cheering.

Tfue is currently at the top of the tournament’s standings. 

His determination through sickness shows just how hard the streamer is willing to work for his results – even going so far as to compete while throwing up.
