Guild Esports Sign Hen As Second Fortnite Player

Hen, a three-time FNCS Finalist, joins GUILD Esports.


GUILD Esports' competitive Fortnite: Battle Royale roster just grew larger with the addition of Lithuania-born player Henik "Hen" McLean. The United Kingdom-based esports organization began its Fortnite endeavor after signing Nikolaj "Flikk" Andreas Frøsle one month ago.

It was only a matter of time before Co-Owner/European football superstar David Beckham and his team acquired more talent. Like Flikk, Hen has established himself as one of Europe's best players. He's accomplished a lot in 2020, and his future looks more and more promising with each passing competition.
