Today, we are both incredibly sad and extremely thankful for the last three and a half years. A new chapter awaits.#BLOnTop pic.twitter.com/yLefwi9bFj
Like other orgs, the team leaves the game due to lack of support. When a team as passionate and successful as BL can no longer justify investing in Fortnite, that's a massive red flag. If nothing changes, many other top organizations will likely exit in 2023 and very few players will be able to make a living from tournament earnings alone.
Yes, as we've written in one of our other articles, it's undoubtedly a sad moment for the Fortnite competitive scene. Epic and the Orgs urgently need to think of a new strategy if the competitive scene is to continue in Fortnite.
