Tfue explains why sniping \u201ctakes no skill\u201d and doesn\u2019t belong in Fortnite FaZe Clan professional Turner \u2018Tfue\u2019 Tenney isn\u2019t a fan of one of Fortnite\u2019s most popular weapons in competitive play. The Sniper Rifle is one of the most effective weapons currently in the game, allowing players to deal significant damage to enemies from long distances with a single shot. The heavy variant of the weapon provides players with the ability to destroy any structure with one bullet, whilst also dealing a huge 150 damage to the body. In Season 7, Fortnite introduced a change to snipers removing most of the bullet drop from the suppressed variant and hunting rifle, making it slightly easier to hit those fatal shots. As a result, Tfue is not a fan and stated on stream that he believes they should be vaulted from the game. \u201cSniping is all luck,\u201d Tfue claimed. \u201cThat\u2019s why I don\u2019t snipe. It takes zero skill. That\u2019s how I die the majority of the time, some lucky bot just hits a headshot.\u201d Nevertheless, the 22-year-old went on to explain his reasoning saying that the sniper should remain in the default playlists but a change should be considered in the competitive modes. Tfue said: \u201cSnipers definitely belong in Fortnite for sure, but they don\u2019t belong in competitive.\u201d Due to the extremely high damage dealt by the heavy sniper, there were calls for a nerf from various members of the community \u2013 however \u2013 Epic Games confirmed one was not forthcoming. Only time will tell whether they rethink their decision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
