Outside of its constant updates, vibrant colors, and huge popularity, the biggest thing that sets Fortnite apart from every other battle royale title is it\u2019s building mechanic. Some of the best players in the world are able to edit and build with ridiculous speed, leading them to getting an advantage over their opponents. However, sometimes they can stumble into already-constructed traps and grab eliminations for those players who have built them. Over time, a selection of traps have been more frustrating to players than others but some pros would rather just see them removed altogether. Following their Cash Cup solo matches from January 16, British players Mongraal and Benjyfishy aired their complaints with the traps on Twitter \u2013 even though they did it in slightly different ways. \u201cLike to remove traps and snipers from competitive,\u201d tweeted NRG\u2019s Benjyfishy, polling fans on the possibility of seeing the items taken out. \u201cIt\u2019s worse than controller players, not even joking.\u201d like to remove traps and snipers from competitive its worse than controller players not even joking \u2014 benjyfishy (@benjyfishy) January 16, 2020 Mongraal, however, seemingly turned his anger up to eleven by tweeting in all caps. \u201cI got f**king trapped I hate this game so much so unskillful it makes me f**king vomit,\u201d he posted. Yet, he followed that up with an even bigger barrage text, typing complete gibberish after claiming he was \u201cquitting\u201d until traps had been vaulted. \u201cNever tweeting again, bye, deactivating,\u201d he added. I GOT FUCKING TRAPPED I HATE THIS GAME SO MUCH SO UNSKILLFUL IT MAKES ME FUCKING VOMIT \u2014 Mongraal (@Mongraal) January 16, 2020 Seeing as there\u2019s been no indication from Epic as to making such a sweeping change, it appears that the professional pair will have to continue venting their own frustrations. The removal of traps would likely cause annoyance to plenty of other players but a change to their damage values could certainly be something for the developers to consider.
