Fortnite: Tfue, Ninja, NICKMERCS and more react to Combat Shotgun vault Epic Games \/ Ninja\/ FaZe Clan \/ DrLupo \/ TSMEpic Games announced on Thursday, September 6 that they were officially removing the controversial Combat Shotgun, and some of v10.20.2 patch, the developers of the popular battle royale title revealed they had vaulted a number of weapons including the Drum Shotgun, but the decision to eliminate the Combat Shotgun from the current loot pool had pro players and popular personalities alike discussing the change. By far the most powerful shotgun, with incredible range and high damage, many are glad to see the back of the weapon, but not everyone was pleased by Epic\u2019s decision to place the item into the vault. FaZe Clan\u2019s Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff shared his disappointment at the removal, with the controller player frustrated by the decision. \u201cNot the combat fam,\u201d wrote the streamer on Twitter, pairing it with an emoji of someone facepalming, clearly not happy that he\u2019ll no longer be able to wield the weapon. Timothy \u2018Bizzle\u2019 Miller was also upset, writing on Twitter: \u201cAm I the only one who liked the combat? Sorry I don\u2019t like getting aim assisted for 200 (HP) with a Pump Shotgun.\u201d Am I the only person who liked the combat?? Sorry I dont like getting aim assisted for 200 with a pump \u2014 Bizzle (@Ghost_Bizzle) September 5, 2019 Mixer star Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins disagreed with Bizzle\u2019s opinion though, responding that the \u201cgun is the easiest weapon to use in the game and has (no) skill gap.\u201d When the Ghost Gaming pro told the streamer he would \u201c10-0\u201d him in a Combat Shotgun battle, Ninja delivered an amazing roast, simply responding: \u201cMust have read my book.\u201d The gun is the easiest weapon to use in the game and has 0 skill gap? \u2014 Ninja (@Ninja) September 5, 2019 On the other hand, Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney, who now reigns supreme as the biggest Fortnite streamer on Twitch, was delighted to see the back of the gun, showing his excitement at the move before explaining that the game is \u201cmore enjoyable\u201d when the Pump Shotgun is the dominant weapon in the meta, with TSM\u2019s Ali \u2018Myth\u2019 Kabanni showing his agreement. Kyle \u2018Mongraal\u2019 Jackson was conflicted by the news, explaining that they vaulted his favorite shotgun, but that he is a big fan of the Suppressed Assault Rifle which returned in the patch. Ben \u2018Dr Lupo\u2019 Lupo was happy with the changes in the update, sending emojis of clapping hands in response to Epic\u2019s tweet, while Dennis \u2018Cloak\u2019 Lepore called on Epic to unvault the Epic and Legendary versions of the Pump Shotgun in response to the vaulting. vaulted my fav shotgun \u2013 unvaulted my fav ar \u2013 win or lose? pic.twitter.com\/yRdjwk3fwc \u2014 mongraal (@Mongraal) September 5, 2019 Just because the developers have decided to remove the Combat Shotgun from the game now, doesn\u2019t mean we will never see it again though. Epic Games always stress that any item placed in the vault is always eligible to return, so it\u2019s possible we could see the weapon return to the game at some point in the future, possibly with a rework to address its crazy power and bring it more in line with Fortnite\u2019s other shotguns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
