The highly-anticipated Star Wars x Fortnite event finally took place on December 14, infusing the storied science-fiction franchise with arguably the most successful single video game in history. The event, which was to promote the upcoming The Rise of Skywalker film, added a lot of themed content into the game, including crashed TIE Fighters, Blaster guns, and, of course, Lightsabers. After getting the chance to try out the laser swords, Fortnite star Tfue quickly came to the conclusion that he wasn\u2019t really fond of them in their current state. Read More: How to get and use Lightsabers in Fortnite &#8211; The former FaZe Clan pro used words like \u201cdogsh*t\u201d and \u201cass\u201d to describe the new item, especially when considering its potential in a competitive setting. Why Tfue doesn\u2019t like the Lightsabers in Fortnite One of his biggest issues with the Lightsabers is that there is a considerable delay when trying to build immediately after having one equipped and swinging around. \u201cI can\u2019t f**king build bro!\u201d he yelled frustratingly. \u201cWhat the f**k! F**k this Lightsaber dogsh*t! F**cking keep swinging, I can\u2019t f**king build?\u201d Read More: Incredible Kylo Ren Fortnite skin leaked &#8211; He\u2019s also not a fan of the way the sword can be used to farm materials and resources, saying: \u201cBro farming mats with this is actually kind of ass.\u201d After failing in his attempt to do a \u201cwall replace\u201d (destroying an enemy player\u2019s wall and immediately replacing it with your own) while having a Lightsaber out, the World Cup finalist realized that there isn\u2019t really much use of the weapon. \u201cIf you get caught with a Lightsaber out and you ain\u2019t in someone\u2019s box and you\u2019re swinging, you\u2019re probably going to get sh*t on,\u201d he explained. When one of his viewers asked for his opinion on the Lightsaber\u2019s potential in competitive Fortnite, Tfue was resigned to the weapon not really being viable. \u201cYou guys think they\u2019re going to put Lightsabers in Arena? There\u2019s no way, right? Lightsaber\u2019s ass! Someone tries to use that in competitive they\u2019re probably going to get sh*t on, to be honest. I really don\u2019t think it\u2019s that OP. People are tripping.\u201d (Segment begins at 0:21 mark of the video below) Tfue reveals only good use for Lighsabers in Fortnite Despite his downplaying of the Lightsabers\u2019 viability in Fortnite, Tfue did admit that the new item offered one major positive \u2013 the enhanced field of view (FOV). FOV has been a controversial topic in Fortnite, especially among the competitive player-base, most of whom have asked Epic to add a slider in the game that allows players to adjust their FOV. Although that still has not been added, the new Lightsabers do offer a much better FOV when equipped, which many, including Tfue, have realized really helps with running around and making it harder for enemies to land shots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tfue explains why Fortnite\u2019s Star Wars Lightsabers aren\u2019t worth using The addition of Star Wars Lightsabers in Fortnite Chapter 2 has a lot of players excited, except, it seems, for superstar pro player Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney, who believes the weapon is not a good option to go with.
