Secret Fortnite strategy that won Kami and Setty $200,000

Professional players have to come up with unique strategies to win competitive games. Whether it is unique rotations, drop locations, or healing strategies, pros always have a few tricks up their sleeves to surprise their opponents. One of the most popular strategies recently was heal-off, where pros accumulated as many healing items as possible and tried to outlast their opponents while staying inside the Storm Circle.

Unfortunately, heal-offs weren't as fun to watch and were ultimately nerfed by Epic Games. Naturally, players had to figure out new and interesting strategies to win competitive games. Pros Kami and Setty recently revealed that the right drop and rotations strategy could help players win thousands of dollars.

The strategy that won Kami and Setty $200,000 in the most recent Fortnite Invitational tournament relied heavily on their landing spot. The duo dropped mid-map and built a base. This gave them access to many vaults and loot across the island, which they collected and saved inside their base.

How did Kami and Setty win the Fortnite Invitation 2022?

Once the pro duo had enough heals, they survived the Storm Circle for as long as they could. They also shot at rotating players to accumulate damage and avoid losing any health to Storm Surge. Kami and Setty then waited for the right zone to finally rotate. They began their rotation just 10 seconds before the circle set in to ensure all eyes were focused on finding a new spot.

Given the timing of their rotation, the pro Fortnite duo easily managed to sneak up on other teams and find the perfect place for the last few circles. Kami and Setty were always a step ahead of their enemies, giving them the advantage they needed to win the FNCS Invitational and take home the trophy with $200,000.

Kami and Setty's performance in the tournament earned them the title of the 'best duo in the world.' The duo's tactical genius will likely be replicated by many players and teams in upcoming tournaments, including FNCS Fortnite Chapter 4.
