Unless Epic Games has decided to listen to the vast majority of the community and reverts the controversial changes made to the siphon mechanic and adds it back to the title's public playlists, the highlight of the Fortnite 8.30 update patch notes will be the debut of the Reboot Van that will allow players to respawn their eliminated teammates during a match. No longer will being eliminated be the absolute end of a match for players with the ability to respawn back into the match thanks to the brand new Rebbot Van.
