Fortnite pro calls out parents on Twitter, backfires as mother shuts him down

The Fortnite pro scene is no stranger to toxicity. Over the years, professional players of all ages have shown disregard for others in numerous ways. The most recent instance of unprofessionalism was set by a player known as Voidd.

Instead of going all-out in-game against other players, he decided to go all out on his parents, more specifically his father. Fortunately, the Twitter rant that didn't last for very long as his very own mother came to shut him down.

Mother shuts down Fortnite professional, leaves behind an unfillable "Voidd"

According to the information at hand, a Fortnite player named "Voidd" was a little ticked off with his parents. Based on his rant, it would seem that his parents (specifically his father) were not supportive of his budding career as a pro player. He wrote:

Given how professionals have a large fan following on social media, the tweet soon gained attention and some amount of support. However, to Voidd's dismay and bad luck, his mother was also on Twitter.

A while later, she jumped onto the tweet and shared the whole story with fans and followers. Based on the information she provided, Voidd decided to stay awake on a school night and retaliated when asked to go to sleep. She wrote:

Not long after the reply, fans and followers rallied to her tweet showed their encouragement. Seeing that his social media support was dwindling, Voidd decided to block his mother on Twitter to halt further communications. Here's what a few fans had to say regarding the fiasco:

It's currently unknown what transpired following the escalation on social media. However, another controversial Fortnite pro known as BBG Calc managed to steal the spotlight from Voidd by writing this:

Given his past shenanigans on Twitter, it wasn't long before he was shut down by fans and other users. One user even claimed that BBG Calc had the "worst take on everything."

While this one instance of a professional player being toxic was shut down by his own mother, there are numerous out there that get a free pass. One can only hope that Epic Games takes into account all these parameters before allowing players to compete for cash prizes.
