MonsterDface suggests how to reduce randomness and \u2018RNG\u2019 in Fortnite\u2019s Arena mode Popular commentator and streamer, MonsterDface, believes that Fortnite\u2019s new arena mode needs more work in order to truly be competitive following the release of v8.20. The latest Fortnite patch caused controversy among the community after it was revealed that the popular siphon mechanic would be removed from all default playlists as Epic Games believed it caused \u2018unhealthy aggression\u2019. Nevertheless, the settings would still be present in the new arena mode \u2013 a ranked playlist which matches players depending on their skill level and accrued points. With the competitive community being vocal in support for a ranked move for a while, the move has been well received by the majority of top players who will fight for the chance to compete at the upcoming Fortnite World Cup. However, MonsterDface \u2013 who regularly casts the Fortnite tournaments \u2013 believes that more needs to be done to improve the competitive integrity of the game and to stop pro players from complaining. \u201cThe competitive mode should be structured a certain way,\u201d he said. \u201cIn the competitive mode, there could be no vehicles, pre-determined loadouts, 100% chest spawns and players could land with shield.\u201d While he admitted that he felt the default playlists should also have siphon settings as well, he suggested that lowering RNG in the arena mode would also stop players making excuses about bad loot or poor drops. \u201cTo reduce RNG, comp should have 100% and players should spawn in with an AR, pump, SMG and 50 shield. That way, players won\u2019t be able say \u2018I landed late or I didn\u2019t get a pump’\u201d he explained. \u201cShut up! How about we give you everything you need and watch you still die. Because you ain\u2019t going to beat Bizzle in a 1v1 \u2013 period!\u201d Reducing RNG would be a move that competitive community would definitely get behind and help Epic Games legitimize their game as an esport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
