Myth Falls To His Death Again In Fortnite Pro-Am At E3 2018
By Ford James ·
It happened during Ninja Vegas '18, and it's happened again: Myth has fallen to his death in a major Fortnite event.
During Ninja Live ‘18 earlier this year, pro player Ali ‘Myth’ Kabbani infamously fell to his death, then blamed it on a rare bug that can occur. Since then, it’s been a running joke in the competitive Fortnite community, one that Myth even acknowledged in a pre-game interview:
Myth vs Ninja is currently the biggest 1v1 that could happen in a Fortnite game, and during the main event, that exact situation happened. The problem was that the casters continued to watch Loserfruit, rather than getting involved in the action, so nobody knew how the fight went down for sure. All we saw in the killfeed were these comical words: “[E3] Myth got knocked out by a fall (29m).” Here’s the exact moment it happened on stream:
Myth has since responded to the jokes and conversations surrounding his unfortunate demise, and he’s explained that Ninja actually took him out with some remote explosives. They destroyed the structure he was standing on and caused him to fall to his death, without crediting Ninja for the kill.
I know y'all didn't see it but basically what happened was ninja threw c4 and I got gotted.

All in all I had a lovely time and can't wait for the future of comp play. That announcement was bonkers
Even though there’s a valid reason for his death and it wasn’t simply due to falling off a cliff, it’s still hilarious to everyone that he died the one way he said he didn’t want to during the event. That’s just one of the funny and epic moments, so check out our top five list of moments during the entire Fortnite Pro-Am event here. In other competitive Fortnite news, Epic announced the 2019 Fortnite World Cup yesterday too.
