Jynxzi says top Fortnite players will use controllers

The presence of experienced Fortnite players raised a different question. Some viewers wondered whether players such as Stable Ronaldo and SypherPK would have too much of an advantage over creators who do not regularly play Fortnite.

Jynxzi said he plans to reduce that gap by putting several strong players on controllers.

He specifically mentioned Ronaldo, Lacy, SypherPK and CourageJD as players who would face the restriction.
