Using the Shockwave Grenade in an unusual way, Mitr0 made a game winning play that certainly took everyone by surprise.

Mitr0 Makes Incredible Game Winning Play in Fortnite Fall Skirmish

The Fall Skirmish, the latest in Epic Games competitive scene for Fortnite Battle Royale. While the aim of the game is obviously to win, it doesn’t hurt to pull out the Victory Royale with a little flair, as Mitr0 from team Atlantis showcased in this incredible power play.

What do you do when you’re in a 1v1 situation in Fortnite, with your opponent hiding out several levels below you as the final circle closes in? if you’re Mintr0, you use the Shockwave Grenade to solve the problem. Mitr0 starts the clip by taking a few shots at his opponent, but the layers of walls and roofs between them prohibit any kind of shootout victory. Likely anticipating a heal-off, Mitr0 opts for a much riskier, yet incredibly cooler, option of using the Shockwave Grenade to propel him to the ground and eliminate his foe.

The Shockwave Grenade works by knocking all players in the blast radius away from the grenade, going through structures and arriving at their destination with no fall damage, as seen in this trailer for the weapons release.

When Mitr0 built a roof for himself, he essentially set up a situation where the grenade would knock him directly down, towards his opponent, with no risk of taking fall damage. The only danger would come from the circle damage if he strayed outside, as seen in the clip where he begins to take damage, however Mitr0’s strategy appears to have caught his opponent so off-guard that they had zero time to react to the play, resulting in their death and the match ending. Even the casters couldn’t believe what they had just seen.
