Fortnite has had no shortage of useful utility items to throw during a fight. Now, players can put their aim to the test in the new Catch LTM.

Catch as a LTM removes all weapons from Fortnite with the exception of throwing weapons. This will present a challenge to most players as many of these throwing weapons are utility tools first and weapons second. Additionally, because hitting with these is more difficult and the damage output of many is low, players can expect fights to last much longer than what is normal in a game of Fortnite.


The best ways to deal damage in the Fortnite Catch LTM

Unless you intend to run up to people and hit them with your pickaxe, you’re going to want to find which weapons are most useful in the Catch LTM. The obvious sources of damage include grenades, dynamite, firefly jars, and stink bombs. Remote explosives can also be a source of damage, but the lower range on this may make it difficult to use.

Stink bombs and firefly jars will be most useful in Fortnite if you can find a way to trap a player in a single location, but the heavy hitting grenades and sticks of dynamite will likely be the best go to weapons during this LTM.


Creative uses for other tools

Other things, like the impulse grenade, can be more useful towards the end of the game. In addition to the mobility it offers players, you can also use it to knock an enemy player deep into the storm in order to both remove them from a location and to potentially kill them outright.

Smoke grenades can also be useful as a way to obscure your movements from an enemy in order to reposition or even trap them in a specific location.

No matter how you chose to approach this LTM, however, you will likely be rewarded for thinking outside of the box in this game mode.
