Strategy

Strategy[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • The Hyper SMG is an excellent weapon all around for its cost, being able to hold its own even in late game. This is why, when you are short on money or cannot afford a high tier Assault Rifle with Instant Shield, the Hyper SMG is your safest option.
  • At close ranges, the Hyper SMG can 2 shot fully shieled opponents to the head, giving it one of the fastest potential time to kill (excluding one shot eliminations). However it will lose that advantage very quickly at longer distances.
