Bugha splits from squad ahead of Fortnite Championship Series

Solo Fortnite World Cup winner Bugha announces intentions to look for a new team just one week ahead of the Fortnite Championship Series

The news comes only a week after Bugha announced he would be playing with previous teammate Stretch alongside power-couple bromance Saf and Zayt

In a Twitter post, Bugha makes clear he will be looking for a squad by himself - meaning we won’t be seeing Stretch and Bugha team up again for the next FNCS circuit

Looking for squad as a solo, (COMFORTABLE WITH STREAMING)

The exact reason for breaking up is unclear, but Bugha specifically outlined that any prospective teams must be “comfortable” with him streaming. Could this be the reason - or just a tipping point?

Regardless, pro players took to the comment section and made light of the situation. Faze Clan’s Nate Hill simply asked, “What are your placements?”

SypherPK also wanted a good ‘ole serving of Twitter impressions, leaving a message stating his clan was recruiting, but Bugha would have to try out first. Oh - and he would need Renegade Raider and Teamspeak installed

Hey man you can try out for my clan, gotta have renegade raider and have team speak downloaded.

Whether Bugha left due to streaming concerns or just plain lack of synergy, there’s one thing for certain: this is a game changer. We reported earlier in the week that Bugha’s now previous team were a top squad to look out for moving into the first week of FNCS; obviously those plans have gone sour

Do you think Bugha will be able to piece together an even better squad before FNCS - or is he just shooting himself in the foot? Tell us your thoughts on Twitter
