Fortnite Battle Royale<\/a> star Theo “Crue” Ferrer became a free agent on Tuesday with the announcement that he had parted ways with the North American esports organisation Team SoloMid.<\/p>\n

With Crue’s departure, TSM’s European Fortnite squad (TSM.EU) has officially disbanded. Since the start of the year, Fortnite pros Cloud, Kyle “Herrions” Trusley, Vinny “Vinny1x” Gilgan and Leon “Khanada” Khim have also left TSM.<\/p>\n

While the reason for Team SoloMid’s decision to downsize their Fortnite project remains unclear, the cancellation of 2020 Fortnite World Cup is likely a contributing factor. With no prospects of a big payday from the World Cup, there is little financial incentive to continue operating a Fortnite team.<\/p>\n

The news comes only two months after TSM announced they were closing down their Rocket League and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds rosters<\/a>, which were axed at the start of April. However, TSM relaunched their PUBG project on April 24 with the signing of the former WTSG roster.<\/p>\n
