Fortnite Ranked players need to stop complaining about the lack of Siphon and get good

Fans are disappointed that the Siphon mechanic isn't present in Fortnite Ranked despite it being in the previous competitive mode, Arena.

Fortnite Ranked Season Zero just hit servers a few days ago but has already been disabled as Epic Games looks into a crashing issue with the mode in both Battle Royale and Zero Build.
