Australian player Lucas “Anon” Malissa proved that practice pays off as he looked untouchable in the Fortnite Olympics competition. He set the stage with a time slightly north of two minutes in the Qualifiers, which outpaced all other competitors.
Anon advanced through the Quarterfinals and Semifinals with wins over Japanese competitors Yamada “Zagou” Yuto and Andrejs "Merstach" Piratovs from Latvia. The Finals set up a match between Anon and Alexander “Boltz” Feyzjou from North America in a best-of-three.
Anon defeated Boltz in the first two matches and guaranteed himself the Gold trophy. Although the Finals did not deliver the fastest runs, Anon made history as the first Fortnite Gold medalist.
