Dr Disrespect went back and forth with YouTube star, PewDiePie, during their winners round two matchup of KEEMSTAR’s Friday Fortnite tournament.
Friday Fortnite has seen massive success since its relaunch on May 30, especially with the announcement that Ninja and PewDiePie would be teaming up in much anticipated collaboration to take on the competition.
When it was Dr Disrespect’s turn to match up against the iconic pair, he began to play it as cool as he always does, and even took some shots toward the Swedish YouTuber during their first match.
After wishing each other good luck, the Doc began to wonder which region PewDiePie was going to be competing from, asking him where he was based, “Pewdie where are you from, Australia? Like Antarctica or what?”
After being told that the YouTuber was from Sweden and based in the UK, Dr Disrespect jokingly said “So like South America or Something?” and PewDiePie played along, agreeing “That’s right.”
During their game, while retreating from a potential fight, Dr Disrespect still found time to mock his opponent, as he ran towards the Swede, saying, “I’m going to PewDiePie, I’m going to try and use PewDiePie as an example of how not to play Fortnite.”

Despite the Doc’s best efforts and confidence in himself and his duo, Arkhram, they were unable to progress past the winner’s bracket round two, ultimately falling short to Ninja and PewDiePie.
Dr Disrespect gave his fans a short recap of events from his “Lamborghini,” saying, “Arkhram tries to save him, couldn’t get the job done. I lost to PewDiePie, I lost to PewDiePie, fuck!” before loading into his loser’s bracket match.
Dr Disrespect and Arkhram were eliminated shortly after in loser’s bracket round two, as they faced SypherPK and HighDistortion.
Many fans would like to see Dr Disrespect collaborate with PewDiePie in future, given how entertaining their interactions were with each other on stream – maybe if the YouTuber comes back to compete we could even see them team up.
