Symfuhny announces new Fortnite team
After much speculation, Fortnite streamer Mason ‘Symfuhny’ Lanier has finally announced the pro organization he will be teaming with.
Symfuhny will be joining NRG Esports as a Fortnite pro and content creator. The streamer made the announcement in Fortnite’s Creative Mode, building blocks of text that spelled out “NRG.”
“I’m nervous… I finally joined an org,” said Symfuhny, “we waited months and months.”
After placing well in Skirmish events and earning over $130,000 in prize money, Symfuhny became one of the top Fortnite pros to not have a team. On March 5, he announced that he finally signed a contract with an organization, leading to anticipation on who it could be.
Symfuhny will be joining King Richard, Svennoss, MrSavageM and Zayt on the competitive NRG Fortnite team.
NRG has been busy with transfers lately, as they also picked up top pro Dizzy to compete in the newly released Apex Legends, which Symfuhny referenced in his org announcement clip by saying “Hi Dizzy.”
In addition to Fortnite and Apex Legends, NRG also fields teams in Overwatch, CS:GO, Hearthstone, Smash and more.
