Fortnite community reacts to Redditor's clean snipe for a Victory Royale

With the Fortnite Duo match reaching a critical point in a 2v2 situation, one of the enemies managed to eliminate the original poster's teammate. In retaliation, the player rushed the enemy and unleashed a barrage of shots on the enemy with the Frenzy Auto Shotgun, knocking them down and leaving the player in a 1v1 scenario, with both players vying for a Victory Royale.

As the enemy rushed them, the Redditor collected themselves and prepared for the 1v1 battle. While the enemy was able to inflict significant damage on the player, they managed to escape. They repositioned themselves with the Grapple Blade, turning the short-range frenzy into a long-range battle.

After repositioning, the original poster equipped their sniper rifle, and with a quick scope-in, they were able to land an exceptional headshot and secure the Victory Royale.

The Fortnite community reacted to the player's display of skill and marksmanship with applause and appreciation. Many expressed admiration for their movement skills and the great fight they were able to put up when the odds were not in their favor.

Meanwhile, others speculated that the enemy who was eliminated would probably take to social media to claim how sniper rifles are overpowered in Chapter 5 Season 1, echoing the sentiments of other members of the community.
