By Nicholas Barth ·
Team SoloMid or TSM announced on its Twitter account that it has benched TSM CaMiLLs from its competitive Fortnite roster.
Friday, July 20th saw Team SoloMid announce that it had benched TSM CaMiLLs from its competitive Fortnite roster and that popular Overwatch streamer and Week 10 UMG Friday Fortnite Champion TSM aimbotcalvin has moved to the TSM competitive Fortnite roster as a sub.
However, TSM announced that CaMiLLs is still a member of the organization and competitive Fortnite team as a substitute player. The organization will also be holding open tryouts for any players to try their hand at securing the fourth spot on the competitive Fortnite roster.
Please be respectful to all parties. @TSM_CaMiLLs is still with us as a sub.

This comes as the first major roster move that the popular North American esports organization has made since it formed its team consisting of Ali "Myth" Kabbani, Daequan and Hamlinz with CaMiLLs being the fourth member of the original team.
With the competitive scene of Epic Games' popular battle royale kicking off into high gear with Week 2 of the Summer Skirmish Series beginning on Friday, July 20th with a 500K solo tournament, TSM looks to be taking a hard look at their competitive roster and making sure it is up to their standards as the organization looks to be at the forefront of professional Fortnite.
Myth, daequan and Hamlinz have grown to become three of the most popular competitive players and content creators in the community of Epic Games' massively popular battle royale game, so it would have been very surprising to see Team SoloMid make any major changes to its team regarding those three players. Some fans have questioned why the organization did not move talented and popular streamers dakotaz and HighDistortion to the roster, but it seemed the general consensus by the community has been that the two players wanted to focus more on their streaming work.
