A streamer taking the top spot in battle-royale style party game is hardly headline
Fall Guys, one of the hit games of the summer, pits 60 egg-shaped competitors against each other, eliminating them through a series of mini-games until one is left standing. It's not exactly difficult to win, but it's frustrating, with luck as much a part of victory as skill.
For a streamer of Tim's prominence, grabbing a victory should not have taken long, but after a few frustrating days, it was clear the win wasn't going to come easy, and his failures quickly became a meme of sorts. Some fans began to cheer him on, but Tim suspected others of attempting to cue up in his games to thwart his effort.
