Any Suggestions on sub 1k build?

[Yoshi599999999]

Budget (including currency): 1k

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Mainly marvel rivals. Some Fortnite and cs2. 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): maybe have room for like a $40 mousepad or something. I have a 1080p 180hz monitor

Then delete the monitor from that build. Easy peasy ^^

Or could we upgrade some stuff with that extra hundred?

Changed the psu to a ATX 3.1 750W and the RAM to match the rest of the build so that you can be Ninja Yoshi (all black).
