Be honest with me, you’ve laughed when your favourite streamers lost their minds over getting stream sniped. We’re going to talk about why this is a gigantic problem for a lot of streamers, but it’s also really funny.
Nobody knows this better than the platforms biggest star – Tfue, who recently managed to confront an aim-botting Fortnite hacker that’s been driving him nuts over the past few weeks, live on stream.

So are aim botting and stream sniping problems that Epic needs to fix? Or is this just the reality that comes with being a well-known streamer? Let me know what you guys think
its not an invite literally ppl can just put the code in LUL no one needs an invite thats why its not hard bud and why ppl keep doing it.
his hair is distracting
Imagine playing fortnite omegalul
That aim bot kid is a genius lol
If u don’t want to get stream sniped don’t stream
2:55 ummmm this long rant about how “hard” it would be to pull off this stream snipe doesn’t seem very hard. You use a free prime sub and boom you have the invite to discord. Playing at the same time as Tfue also isn’t very hard considering he probably plays 40+ hours a week and you can very easily figure out when he’s playing. Wow so much work…
POGGERS
Tfue looks like Logan Paul and I hate him because of it
The host if this show curses way too much. Not that I am against it, but just not used to it in this channel
"JUST ADD DELAY DUMMY 4HEAD LIKE, JUST DON'T GET STREAM SNIPED MORON 4HEAD LIKE, JUST STOP STREAMING DUDE. 4HEAD"
-Most the people in the comment section.
You cant "scrim" fortnite lol there's nothing comp about fortnite.
Imagine playing poker and showing your hand to everyone and then complaining that they are cheating.
I got to admit, back when stream sniping was a HUUUUUGE problem at the early ages of PUBG, and people like grimmzz etc was whining about it 24/7 (especially that grimmz dude) I had NO sympathy for them…and honestly, I don't now either. THEY are the ones that decide to stream THEIR gameplay and play WITHOUT A DELAY! The option is there, LITERALLY there. And if the streamers use the excuse of "well that ruins chat interaction" well, that's the price you got to play. I couldn't care less if you get stream sniped and people being grimy towards you all day, that's the life of a streamer, and you chose to stream your gameplay with zero delay.
And sure, if you can make up some anti-stream snipe stuff like in LoL where they cover up their minimaps, cool x beans, but that's something that they make up themselves, I don't feel it's up to the developers of games to make it actively harder or impossible to stream snipe. And sure, I haven't been in their situation, where people you are against are realistically legally cheating, but then again, if I were, and it bugged me, delay, instantly.
why would they use Dakota's clip when he asked them to stream snipe?
4:23 yea the game is dead so why should you care
Imagine being paid millions to play a game aimed at 12 year olds and then whining cos the 12 year olds kill you with aim bot. Like honestly sounds like quite a minor problem considering its not like it takes him a long time to requeue
Stream sniping can be countered a bunch of ways. Hmm, a delay, streamer mode, alt accounts, and not streaming. How many streamers forget to turn on streamer mode, I have seen so many it's crazy. I've seen shrouds stream snipers let shroud kill them. So I kinda think there is much cooperation with stream snipers. In those streams r they stoping more often than they normally do, hmm I wonder y. Getting stream sniped and getting all fake mad, prob pulls more views. so not a problem more of a marketing ploy.
the hacker is some 12 year old big lipped moon cricket. the mention of DOX and people flip lol. The kid is a troll. how did this make the news of over 1 million subs.
Just play a different game
These Fortnite streamers are literally giving them what they want, reactions. And I don’t know what you expect when you play a game with a playerbase consist of 12 years old
Fortnite´s current state is like the last few months of S4 league, even in private games there was someone hacking games,..
Poker streamers just run a 5 min delay and it doesnt really make any difference I don't get why everyone doesn't. Most just have a chat window on the stream that they will react to so they can build a relationship with their community.
I dont see any problems with stream sniping. You made the choice to be a streamer nobody forced you. I can compare it to being a celebrity. If you want fame you better know what your getting into. No sympathy for streamers.
I remember meeting xqc with him not knowing that I have utterly targeted him to the point that he bashed his desk to the point that his mic died
The title should be changed to: Stream Sniping and Why It's Bad. ?
Not gonna feel sorry for a person who said the n-word.
Hands
You can use an ancient technique called “Alt + F4”
You can easily avoid stream sniping – just adjust the delay of the stream
It took me 7 and a half minutes to realize this was going nowhere. All that build up for nothing.
there is no debate on wether stream sniping is right or wrong bro
Easy fix put a delay on your own stream and it's done. Seriously such a big story for something that takes 2 sec to activate in your own settings. I am streaming myself and guess what no issues with those with a delay.
Maybe tfue should just stream on mixer, because in all honesty.
You can't get streamsniped if nobody is watching your stream
This host is mad cringe…. Also, why's he swearing so much? It's like he just found out how to swear, or now that he finally was able to go out of the house away from his parents he can finally swear. lmao. Just unnecessary amounts of swearing. I don't really care about swearing but it just comes off as highly unprofessional
stop waving your arms around its so god damn annoying
Stream on delay. 😮
I can understand hacking in competitive games like cs go… BUT HACKING IN FORTNITE WHAT LOSERS XD
The Streamers getting mad at the snipers / hackers is the content
Fact: until now, s1mple never won a major, and doublelift never won Worlds

Look they get banned and they have to create a new account. Simple fix, make a feature in his custom games that you can set boundaries on the number of months/years that account has played. I don’t even play these games and it sounds like a simple fix.
Set conditions to join in custom games e.g
Minimum play time ‘6months’ or ‘1 year’ etc etc. If they join with an 6 month account and get caught hacking, they ll be banned and can’t join back with a band new account????
Seems kinda an easy fix, so unless it’s not possible, why don’t they just add it?
he looks high af
He talks too much with his hands, it's annoying but good story. =]
I just can't unsee his over the top hand movements >.< so irritating lol
playing a single player game and getting shot “yeah this guy’s streamsniping”
Play a kid game and get upset when kids do kid shit
In fortnite you get popular by winning tournaments?
