“Let the poor man skybase”: Fortnite community reacts to player hijacking skybase for Victory Royale in Chapter 5 Season 3

Over the years, Fortnite players have developed different strategies while chasing that precious Victory Royale, whether it be camping or facing your enemies head-on without fear. However, a particular strategy that is almost exclusive to the Battle Royale title is sky-basing, something that players attempt in Chapter 5 Season 3 to varying effects.

This is highlighted in a recent Reddit clip shared by u/INFINITY--Oficial, where the player is seen in a Chapter 5 Season 3 match, donning the Infinity Outfit and chasing after an unsuspecting enemy who is attempting the classic skybase strategy. This results in the player and the enemy being caught up in a hilarious chain of events to decide who gets to keep the sky base. They seemed to be doing whatever they could to knock the other off the base.

Other members of the community took to the comments to express their opinions on the player's sky base hijinks, with Reddit user u/Proud-Profession3795 joking about how they hope they never get into the same match as u/INFINITY--Oficial. Reddit user u/lokarlalingran, however, appreciated the moments that mobility items like the Ship In A Bottle Mythic and the Nitro Fists can spawn, despite many other players often complaining about these items.

Meanwhile, Reddit user u/Jaded_genji drew attention to the player's use of the Ship In A Bottle Mythic, expressing their surprise at the fact that they found three of these rare Pirates of the Caribbean-themed items in one game. Reddit user u/thatgentlemen appreciated the clip, saying how they could potentially never pull off something similar.

The Ship In A Bottle Mythic is one of the many Pirates of the Caribbean-themed items added to the game in Chapter 5 Season 3. The item allows players to summon a massive pirate ship under them, making it one of the most powerful Mythics to ever come to the game.

Luckily for players, the Ship In A Bottle Mythic can be obtained quite easily by finding it in floor loot and chests like other items and weapons. You can also acquire it through the Hidden Treasure item. Additionally, you can also obtain the Ship In A Bottle Mythic by interacting with the Jack Sparrow NPC on the Chapter 5 Season 3 map.
