Guild Esports, a prominent esports organization, has officially welcomed Blacha, Chico, and PabloWingu into their ranks. These three players are poised to represent Guild in European and international Fortnite tournaments, marking an exciting chapter in their professional gaming careers.
Blacha, hailing from Poland, has entered into a six-month contract with Guild Esports, which the organization has the option to extend for an additional nine months. His recent standout performance in the Fortnite Champion Series (FNCS) events showcased his skills and potential in the game.
Chico, a promising talent from Bosnia and Herzegovina, initially signed with Guild to compete in the FNCS finals. His second-place finish in a FNCS event in August demonstrated his competitive spirit and earned him a spot on Guild’s roster.
PabloWingu, hailing from Denmark, has committed to Guild Esports for a one-year contract, with the possibility of extension for up to two additional years. His impressive achievement of qualifying for all three FNCS European Majors tournaments this year positions him as a rising star in the Fortnite competitive scene.
With the addition of Blacha, Chico, and PabloWingu, Guild Esports bids farewell to Anas and Hen, who will be departing the organization after the conclusion of the FNCS season. The introduction of these new talents signifies Guild’s commitment to staying competitive and fostering fresh talent within the Fortnite arena.
