When Epic Games announced planes were being vaulted at the beginning of Season 8 in Fortnite much of the pro community was very excited about the news. Epic Games followed up this announcement by introducing the Baller is Season 8, a new vehicle that has a lot of mobility, but nothing like what the plane was capable of. The Baller is not nearly as powerful as the plane was but it is still causing issues with prominent members of the Fortnite community. It\u2019s easy to look at the Baller as being a cheesy vehicle but it has been causing problems for players just because of its ability to wreak havoc and how unpredictable it can be. TSM Myth doesn\u2019t think the Baller is a good alternative to the planes Oh how happy we were before we knew they were gonna add balls. pic.twitter.com\/ogKuWHBBde \u2014 Myth (@TSM_Myth) March 25, 2019 In a tweet Myth pretty much called out Fortnite and bashing the Baller at the same time. \u201cOh how happy we were before we knew they were gonna adds balls,\u201d he wrote. While there are some players who agree with him, some of the bigger names in the Fortnite community shared their disagreements with that statement. NICKMERCS, Ninja and WizKay all weighed on the debate. NICKMERCS, Ninja and WizKay all think the Baller is a fine alternative to planes You\u2019re trippin\u2019 bro. Better by A LOT in my book. Health is much lower also easier to shoot. They don\u2019t have a turret which is nice and you can\u2019t get sniped from one in the sky. Hamster ball > Plane. By a mile. \u2014 Nickmercs (@NICKMERCS) March 25, 2019 NICKMERCS responded to Myth\u2019s initial tweet saying he thinks the Baller is much better than the planes were. \u201cHamster balls are a much better alternative,\u201d NICKMERCS wrote. \u201cThe planes were ridiculous.\u201d Myth responded by saying both had their positives and negatives but he wouldn\u2019t say the Baller is a much better alternative, to which Nick said the Baller was better than a plane by a mile and said Myth was trippin\u2019. Ninja agreed with Nick\u2019s statement about the Baller is better than the plane and WizKay weighed in by saying he thinks the Baller is better but said neither are good for competitive Fortnite.

Hamster ball > Plane. By a mile. \u2014 Nickmercs (@NICKMERCS) March 25, 2019 It\u2019s easy to see why the Baller would be a fun vehicle to mess around in with friends but in a competitive setting, it\u2019s hard to see where they fit in. That\u2019s not to say they are completely broken but many pros agree Fortnite has a long way to go before it gets its competitive scene ironed out and getting rid of vehicles does seem like something that should be considered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TSM Myth and NICKMERCS debate the Baller\u2019s place in Fortnite Members of the Fortnite pro community such as Myth, Ninja, NICKMERCS and others are split on whether the Baller is good or bad for the game.
