What a tryhard. From personal experience, getting angry at the game only makes you worse at it. Being cold-headed is what eventually gets your through the hard part of a game, or makes you play better in PvP.

This dude is just trying to make his temper tantrums from when he played other games look like the right thing to have done to save face. Actually, scratch the "other games" part: there is enough to go by just in Fortnite alone.

Notice the "#1" in title.
