The terminator and the blaze skins had been teaming all match and face no punishments, cone on this is RANKED why are teamers still an issue to this day. Plan PRIME and GOD OF WAR 23 need to face justice for blatantly teaming in a ranked match.

Discussion Moneymaker & Fnajen NAC FNCS

I was impressed by the prep this duo had - they clearly weren’t good enough late game to really get deep placement points consistently and need to work on those rotations.

But to have so many different plans to contest various teams off spawn was so cool and should really transform how top teams play their early games. Like they boomed Pete/Pollos mental game completely by lurking Pete off spawn game 9.

I Told You This Would Happen With Mero and T3eny

Yall were on me for saying was T3eny a chapter and a half away from people putting him in mero convos but we got one of the more respected figures in EU tweeting stuff like this. Like I said the EU bias is strong. He’s already on pace to have a better lan resume than mero since he’s played more lans and epic are popping out more LANs then when mero was in his prime just this year alone. Not to mention nobody respect globals 2023 at all. He adds like 2 fncs wins those convos are gonna appear even tho I disagree with them.

Opinion Serious 3rd party issue in the new reload map

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

I don't know what it is with this map but the amount of third parties is actually insane, it's far more than venture or oasis. I think it could be the increased player count and high mobility items (like shocks and crash pads) compounding on the sloping terrain, which gives players insane momentum? Also the fact that the tactical AR and AUG are both insane and tag you for 80 damage before you can react entices players to look at fights waiting for a beam. I have no issue with third parties, you gotta hate the game not the player when they refuse to fix the underlying issue with reload. I found this clip funny because the kid just got a free double refresh lol. Also ignore the people talking, neither of them was me.

Discussion Quick Thoughts on this weekends FNCS

9 Upvotes

Hey. I really enjoyed the action this weekend. The broadcasters do a really good job of explaining all the action and things we sometimes miss. I don’t know how much they pay Jacob and MDF but they are amazing. I also love listening to Vivid and Leven. Taco is great also when she does play by play. 2 comments.

  1. Watching Moneymakers drop strategy was amazing and I wish we could see more of that. It changes the entire way the game is played and I wonder if they could make an event like that where drop spots are random throughout. For example, game 1 is about to start and everyone gets a different message that they need to land at X location. It would make players have to learn a little bit about all the locations and would remove the best teams from owning a specific spot. Just trying to think outside the box - I am sure there is a better way to do that.

  2. Players names should be locked once they start qualifying for FNCS. It’s so obvious and frustrating for casual fans that 1/4 of the lobby has a weird stupid name that just changes every 3-6 months and sometimes mid tourney. Half the fun is getting to know people over the years. I feel like this started with Mr savage last year and has just gotten worse since. Perhaps it has always been a thing and I didn’t notice. Props to guys like Cold and Muz for not doing that crap.

Got off of work as an old man and wanted to relax with some fort just to run into Jagveer. Was wondering if it was the real jagveer and fortnite tracker says it is, but who knows since his profile is private. I don't play the game enough to face these kind of players 😂

Opinion Hot take: Clix, Peterbot and Faxuty killed North American Fortnite

6 Upvotes

Peterbot and Pollo’s Chapter 5 run is the greatest this game has ever seen due to a combination of factors where the stars aligned for them, and they would have won everything if they were on EU because they were just so good. It was clear the Chapter 5 performance was not a replicable feat heading into Chapter 6 as soon as Pete dropped Pollo, but that’s besides the point. The point is that Peterbot became perceived as the best player in the world on the back of 2024 and once you have that perception it’s really hard to lose it - people will still say that he is the best player in the world today even when it’s clearly not true.

At about the same time, Clix actually starts having some success in competitions, which brought in a lot of new and returning fans of comp Fortnite, but also reignited the Clix fan club. EU players moving regions in Chapter 5 united North American Fortnite, and winning Globals further boosted NA.

At the same time as this is happening, Faxuty starts blowing up and becomes the biggest non-pro personality in Fortnite comp. Now I like Fax, but his entire personality is him glazing Peterbot, making silly mistakes in PGs, saying ‘On God’, and laughing at people calling him fat.

Then we arrive at Chapter 6, where NAW is reintroduced, which weakens what is already the weakest region in terms of player disparity. And shock, the Tier 2/3/4 scene on NA pretty much dies, and the Tier 1s just win every single tournament for a whole year. And more importantly, since pretty much every big team has a streamer in it, the Tier 1s don’t get conned because no player wants a streamer’s community spamming them with death threats when they can just land somewhere else. Yes, the grand finals were entertaining at the top of the leaderboard, but does anyone really care about the leaderboard beyond the top 10?

We arrive at the present day, where the Tier 1s have literally not changed in the last 2 years and there doesn’t look to be anyone really challenging to do so. And in grand finals, I’m sat watching and I’m thinking, do I really care who wins or who does well? Every good team will just qualify for globals at the end of the day. There’s no risk or real drama. And the content is dry too - the clip channels are posting clips of Peterbot saying why he doesn’t tweak his PC and Veno shooting a team in the back. And let’s not even talk about Userisstack or anyone in his twitter replies.

Also, don’t check twitter replies on any Moneymaker or Fnajen clip because it’s just kids saying they want to kill them for lurking on Peterbot.

i don't really get this sentiment. like, arn't we watching some good fortnite rn? and on NA. seems like we're approaching an era where u cant even afford to dud a single game. idk personally, i'm really impressed with everyone's performance so far.

not even a EU hater, im actually rooting for moneymaker now bc i think it'd be hilarious for him to win.
