Some of the rarest pickaxes in Fortnite are the ones from early seasons. They haven't appeared in the game for a long time, with only a few players owning them. The Pickaxe of Champions is certainly the rarest one in the game.
Only a handful of players around the world own the Fortnite Pickaxe of Champions. It cannot be bought in the item shop or earned through completing challenges. In fact, Epic Games only gives out this pickaxe to an elite club of players.
Naturally, with an item so rare, players often wonder how to get the Pickaxe of Champions in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8. Unfortunately, players need to be one in hundreds of thousands to own this pickaxe. It is only given as a reward to FNCS winners.
