Why is Hen the Fortnite Player of the Month?

With the start of Fortnite Chapter 3, Fortnite Competitive was flat for the month of December. However, Hen has had a great run of results over the past few months, which we want to honor for December! In November alone, he and his mates grabbed 1st place twice in the Trio Cash Cups. In early December, Mongraal hosted a $25,000 Duo Cup, where Hen and his mate Queasy secured first place and $8,000 in prize money.

On November 22, the FNCS Grand Royale Finals took place with a total prize pool of $5 million. Together with his mates TaySon and Chapix, he showed that he has the necessary motivation and skills to compete with the best teams in Europe. The trio showed everything they had, and they were rewarded for it. At the end of the day, they took home the gold medal and $600,000, proving that they are the best Fortnite trio ever. Nice monthly earnings for a 17-year-old. But we don't begrudge Hen. GG to this great achievement.
