nicks Retires from CS and Returns to Fortnite

Brazilian esports player Nicollas “nicks” Polonio de Oliveira has officially announced his retirement from Counter-Strike and his return to Fortnite - the discipline in which he competed from 2018 to 2022. The 20-year-old shared the news on social media, emphasizing that now is the right time for a comeback.

Nicks left Fortnite in the summer of 2022 to focus on Counter-Strike. During his time in CS, he played for MIBR and Fluxo. It was with Fluxo that the Brazilian experienced the most successful stretch of his FPS career, winning six tournaments, including three consecutive CCT Season 2 editions and the Desafio Brasileiro de Esports.

However, his CS experience did not get the nod as a significant CS breakout experience on the world stage. Throughout his CS game timeline, which began in 2022, nicks won about 25,000 in prize money. His last team was MIBR; he was part of the team in July last year but was benched in September and left the team in October.

It seems logical for him to get back to Fortnite. It was indeed in this discipline in which nicks managed to achieve the greatest success. He managed to win more than 227,000 in prizes and compete for W7M, Cloud9, Hero Base, and other organizations. Besides, he competed at the level of the World Cup as a teenager.

According to the player, the fact that three new Fortnite World Championships are coming out also acted as a source of motivation for the gamer. Now, the gamer named nicks seeks to reestablish himself in the gaming scene and regain his old form on the global stage.
