First a congratulations for the 13 and 17 year old professional Fortnite players @Mongraal & @DomentosFN, and then a congratulations to their organization for getting themselves banned from FridayFortnite. Mongraal and DomentosFN both play for Team Secret, an e-sports organization who’s Twitter account tweeted: “best fortnite team in the world. real pros, not entertainers.”



best fortnite team in the world. real pros, not entertainers ? — Team Secret (@teamsecret) June 16, 2018



Keemstar didn’t take too kindly to the words, as its the entertainers who brought the event together, keep it alive, and bring the most attention. If it wasn’t for them, there wouldn’t be a FridayFortnite for anyone to play in.

Congrats your team is now banned from Friday Fortnite for future events. Entertainers build this scene with pros together. You have not understanding of community! Bye https://t.co/OMfiauPcRD — KEEM ? (@KEEMSTAR) June 16, 2018

Team Secret responded:

some friendly trash talk is healthy, or not? its not a hug competition ?. we respect the competition and can take it as much as we dish it out — Team Secret (@teamsecret) June 16, 2018

Some people are saying Keemstar went too far banning the team, but Keem also said the organization is banned- not the players. They are currently players for Team Secret, so we will see what this means for their future.

It continues as Team Secret explains it wasn’t a bash..

for the record, it was no malicious bash. we believe in competition, but also friendly trash talking the competition. if we lose, we take it just the same. such is #sports and #esports — Team Secret (@teamsecret) June 16, 2018

But Keemstar doesn’t seem to care

The players can play under a different name idc. That org name will be nowhere in the event. — KEEM ? (@KEEMSTAR) June 16, 2018

FridayFortnite is an event run every Friday where teams of two drop in and compete for the most kills in a 2 game series. A bracket for winners and losers is followed until we get a winner. This Friday, the win went to @Mongraal & @DomentosFN.

Talked to almost all players involved in #FridayFortnite & they agree with the org being banned. Not the players but the org. End of story. — KEEM ? (@KEEMSTAR) June 16, 2018

Keemstar puts it to rest, saying he spoke to most of the players who agreed, the org is banned, not the players.
