While casual players purchase these emotes for entertainment, professional players brandish these in competitive tournaments and cash cups to intimidate opponents.

Epic is perfectly bridging the gap between the real world and virtual reality with these inclusions. Hopefully, they will continue to do the same as players enter the final few weeks of Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 5.
